About Mr Khanna

Practice
Mr Aman Khanna has been a Consultant ENT Surgeon at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust since October 2018. His practice centres on the nose and sinuses: nasal blockage, sinus disease, nasal allergy, endoscopic sinus surgery, and septorhinoplasty for both function and appearance. He also assesses and operates for snoring and sleep apnoea, and sees patients with general ear, nose and throat problems.
In the NHS he runs two joint clinics. At Heartlands Hospital he works alongside respiratory physicians for patients whose nose and sinus disease is linked to asthma and other chest conditions. At the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham he works with the haematology team to care for people with bleeding disorders who have recurrent nosebleeds.
He sees private patients at The Priory Hospital and The Harborne Hospital in Birmingham, and at The Droitwich Spa Hospital.
