About
Ms Sonia Kumar is a Consultant Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Surgeon practising at Spire Thames Valley Hospital. She specialises in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of a wide range of ENT conditions, with a particular focus on ear disorders in both adults and children. Her areas of expertise include hearing loss, glue ear, ear infections and discharge, eardrum perforations, cholesteatoma, otosclerosis, and all forms of ear surgery, including hearing reconstruction and implantable hearing devices such as bone-anchored hearing aids and cochlear implants. She also treats children with common ENT conditions such as glue ear, snoring, obstructive sleep apnoea, nasal issues, tonsillitis, and neck lumps. Her broader ENT work includes managing sore throats, hoarseness, voice box problems, and nasal symptoms such as blockage, sinusitis, and allergies.
She completed her medical degree at Oxford University Medical School and undertook surgical training in the West Midlands before progressing to higher surgical training in Oxford. Her subspecialty expertise was developed through two prestigious fellowships: the Oxford Otology Fellowship and the International Paediatric Otology and Airway Fellowship at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Ms Kumar is a core member of the auditory implant team at Oxford University Hospitals and also serves as an otology and paediatric ENT surgeon at Stoke Mandeville and High Wycombe hospitals under Buckinghamshire Healthcare Trust.
In addition to her clinical work, Ms Kumar is actively involved in professional development and advisory roles. She is a member of the ENT UK council and serves as the Regional Specialty Advisor for the Royal College of Surgeons of England. She is also a member of the British Society of Otology, the British Cochlear Implant Group, the British Association of Paediatric Otorhinolaryngologists, and the European Association of Paediatric Otorhinolaryngology.
