Created by a Consultant ENT Surgeon
Dr Eze Explains was created by Dr Nneka Eze, Consultant ENT Surgeon, who cares for both adults and children.
After seeing how much easier healthcare experiences can be when patients know what to expect, she created Dr Eze Explains to provide clear, reassuring explanations that families can watch before coming to hospital.
The current video library has a strong focus on children and families, with scope to expand into wider patient education in the future.
