Specialty

Following her medical training at Northwestern University in Chicago, USA, Mrs Panesar underwent specialist training in ENT and head and neck surgery at the Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital, Northwick Park Hospital, Charing Cross Hospital and St Bartholomew's Hospital in London. She enjoys an outstanding reputation as a surgeon and is a careful and thorough diagnostician. 

Having worked at Great Ormond Street and completed a paediatric research fellowship at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada, Mrs Panesar is also very experienced and good with children, offering treatment for problems such as glue ear and hearing loss, ear infections, snoring, nose bleeds, tonsillitis and nasal obstruction. She leads the paediatric ENT services at Luton and Dunstable NHS Trust. 

Mrs Panesar is a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and a Member of the European Association of Facial Plastic Surgeons. Her position as a successful woman in a highly demanding speciality was covered in the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Herald and Post. An extract reads:

"Hospital consultants, and particularly surgeons, can appear aloof and even arrogant, but it's certainly not the case with Jaan Panesar, whose friendly and engaging personality seems sure to put her patients at ease.

Providing those patients with the best care and treatment she possibly can is her priority.

She says: "The general public has some pretty high expectations on the standards of conduct and service they want to see from the medical profession, and rightly so. We have a duty to strive to meet those standards."
