Our little boy (aged 2) has inherited my narrow nose, but he also seems to have sleep apnoea (where you stop breathing for a few seconds at a time whilst sleeping, along with having real difficulty breathing esp at night).


We are going to arrange a private consultation as it has worsened lately (mouth/throat/nose seems very congested despite everything I try - nasal spray, karvol drops, vicks, raising head end of cot...) and I'm not sure how long we will have to wait for appt on NHS.


Has anyone had similar experience with their child suffering from this and can anyone recommend a clinic or consultant? We were advised to go to the London Bridge Hospital by our doctor but when I did a bit of research nothing makes them stand out and it would be great to have a review by someone who has actually visited one of these specialists.


Thank you, much appreciated.

Gavin Morrison on Harley Street (also does appointments at the westminster bridge rooms, st thomas's, a lot easier to get to from here) has been fantastic with my son's ear problems. Highly recommend. Our insurance is pretty standard but covered it all no probs.

Thanks all, we saw Abhi Parikh on Harley Street. He told us basically what we already knew (op not recommended unless affecting his hearing, speech, development etc.) but still causing real problems in the night so we will see how it goes...

    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!  
    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
