Mr. Chisholm

Edward Chisholm MD, FRCS (ORL-HNS), Consultant ENT Surgeon

Mr Chisholm graduated from St Mary’s Hospital, Imperial College, London. He completed his specialist ENT training in London, including posts at The Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, Imperial College Hospitals and The Royal Marsden.

He was awarded a sponsorship to visit pioneering centres in New York and Sao Paulo. Although a general ENT surgeon, Mr Chisholm has developed advanced skills in the management of complex sino-nasal problems, thyroid and parathyroid disorders and techniques to reduce snoring, which include laser treatments.

In 2007 Mr Chisholm was awarded a medical doctorate (MD) for ground breaking work on gene therapy for head and neck cancer at Cancer Research UK, London. This work was further recognised through the award of the prestigious Otolaryngology Research Society Angel James Prize. He is the first author on over 20 peer-reviewed publications and has co-authored a Cochrane Review (see below).
