DR. Vanitha A/P Palanisamy
Laryngologist | Head & Neck Surgeon
Voice Disorders • Airway Disorders • Sleep Apnoea
I am a Laryngologist based in HKL, with specialized expertise in voice disorders, airway conditions, and sleep apnoea, alongside advanced oncological surgical management of complex head and neck cancers. My practice bridges precise surgical care with functional preservation, particularly of voice and airway.
A core focus of my work is preventive medicine and public awareness. I believe that voice is a fundamental part of personal identity and should be cared for with the same attention as any other vital aspect of health. Many voice disorders are preventable or reversible when addressed early, and I am committed to educating patients and the wider community on vocal health, early warning signs, and long-term voice care.
Through patient-centred care, multidisciplinary collaboration, and evidence-based practice, my goal is not only to treat disease, but to preserve communication, identity, and quality of life.
