Our Expert Guest Speaker will be :-
Prof Peter Rea
MA BM BCh (Oxon) FRCS (England) FRCS (ORL-HNS)
Prof Rea’s Presentation will be
“Thinking Outside The Box: Contributors to your dizziness from beyond your ear.”
Professor Rea is President of The Royal Society of Medicine section of Otology for 2023-2024, and is past-President of the British Society of Otology (2020-2022), Honorary Professor of Balance Medicine at De Montfort University, Honorary Professor to the Departments of Neuroscience and Informatics at the University of Leicester, and was Chairman of the British Society of Neuro-otology from 2013-2019.
In our opinion Prof Rea is one the leading experts for balance conditions in the world
His specialist practice for both ear surgery and dizziness draws patients from all over the UK and around the world. He has a state of the art balance investigation suite at The London Road Clinic, along with a dedicated and experienced team. He is involved in cutting edge research projects which have led to new treatments for patients with ear and balance disorders. He had a busy surgical practice, but still manages to treat the great majority of his patients without the need for an operation.
He began his medical training at the University of Cambridge, graduating with first-class honours before moving to the University of Oxford to complete his early medical qualifications. He obtained the coveted Gold Medal of The Royal Society of Medicine on completing his specialist training.
His specialist training in ENT surgery was spent in the major London teaching hospitals, including the Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital, The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. He has also undertaken prestigious “fellowship” training in Australia and the USA, and is now able to offer over 30 years of medical experience having qualified in 1991.
