Mr Alasdair Mace

I am the Head of Specialty for ENT, Oral Surgery and Audiology at Imperial Collge Healthcare NHS Trust which includes Charing Cross and St Mary’s Hospitals in London. I am a specialist in all general ear, nose and throat problems. In particular I am an expert in disorders of the throat, mouth and neck including neck lumps, tonsil problems, salivary gland problems and thyroid nodules. I also have a specialist interest in voice and swallowing issues.

I am one of the two senior consultant surgeons in the Imperial Head and Neck Cancer team and regularly perform operations for throat cancers, mouth cancers and both malignant and benign lumps in the neck, parotid and thyroid glands. At the end of my ENT training I was appointed as The Royal College of Surgeons Fellow in Laryngology gaining expertise in the management of voice, swallowing and upper airway problems. Since then I have helped many actors, singers and other professional voice users. In addition I spent time at Harvard and The Massachussetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in Boston USA performing surgery for Thyroid and Parathyroid problems.

I regularly treat patients for all common ENT problems including nose and sinus problems, ear wax and infections, hearing loss and tonsillitis. I can perform endoscopy of the throat and voice box at the time of your appointment as a one-stop procedure and also perform microsuction wax clearance, cautery for nose bleeds and hearing tests in outpatients thereby reducing the need for further appointments.

In addition to major cancer surgery and thyroidectomy operations I also perform surgery for more common ENT conditions such as grommets, septoplasty, tonsillectomy, voice surgery and nasal polyp or sinus surgery.

In addition to my clinical work I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Imperial College and have academic interests including thyroid problems and head and neck cancer. I have published over 35 papers in academic journals and several book chapters.

Please note Mr Alasdair Mace only has an outpatient service at Spire Bushey and does not operate at the hospital.
