Mr Rupert Obholzer: Ear, nose and throat surgery

Covid-19

Hospitals are starting to offer more treatment for private patients, although a very small number will continue to provide NHS care only. Hospitals will need to catch up on all the treatment that was postponed at the start of the outbreak. If you’re due to see a Bupa recognised healthcare professional, we recommend you discuss this with them as they’ll be best placed to let you know whether there’s likely to be any impact on your treatment. Hospitals are taking extra precautionary steps to keep patients safe, such as asking them to self-isolate for 14 days before treatment and pre-admission testing.
