Sinus surgery opens the pathways of the sinuses and clears blockages to improve sinus drainage and ventilation.

Dr Chris Oosthuizen performs ‘functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS)’ for patients at the Mater Private Hospital Springfield and St Andrew’s Private Hospital Ipswich.

This frequently performed procedure is carried out through the nostrils and leaves no scaring and typically only mild discomfort for a short time.
