Professional statement

Mrs Manuela Cresswell is a highly respected consultant ENT surgeon practising at Nuffield Health Plymouth Hospital with a specialist interest in otology and balance disorders. She completed her higher surgical training in the south west peninsula before undertaking two prestigious fellowships specialising in middle ear surgery, skull base surgery, and the assessment and treatment of balance disorders.


To further develop her expertise, Mrs Cresswell trained with internationally recognised leaders in balance medicine and endoscopic ear surgery. This advanced training has enabled her to offer the latest techniques and deliver highly specialised care to her patients. Alongside her clinical practice, Mrs Cresswell has received several awards in recognition of her contributions to academic research and humanitarian work in global health.


Mrs Cresswell provides comprehensive ENT care for both adults and children, offering expert consultations and surgical treatment across a wide range of ear, nose, and throat conditions. She has a particular interest in ear disorders and specialises in advanced procedures such as endoscopic ear surgery, a minimally invasive technique that avoids the need for a visible external scar.


She is committed to delivering compassionate, patient-centred care and believes in working closely with patients and their families. By ensuring they fully understand their condition and treatment options, she empowers them to make informed decisions about their care.
