Dr Darren Rom

MBBS, MS (ORL), FRACS (OHNS)

Ear Nose and Throat Surgeon

I am an Australian-trained adult and paediatric ENT surgeon with a subspecialty interest in Rhinology (nose and sinus disorders) and Skull Base conditions. I grew up in Sydney and completed medical training at the University of Sydney. I furthered my education with a Master of Surgery in Otolaryngology. Subsequently, I completed formal training in Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery in New South Wales, and was awarded a Fellowship with the Australasian College of Surgeons.

During my training, I rotated through high-volume tertiary and regional centres across Australia and gained experience in managing both adult and paediatric patients. Post-training, I was accepted into a 12-month competitive international Fellowship at the Royal National Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital (University College of London Foundation Trust) with a focus in advanced Rhinology, Facial Plastics and Skull Base surgery. I have a strong commitment to clinical research having published in numerous peer-reviewed journals and presented work both nationally and internationally. I have a passion for medical and surgical education, and am actively engaged in mentoring medical students and junior trainees.

I provide surgical care at East Sydney Private Hospital, Chatswood Private Hospital, Nepean Private Hospital and Ryde Hospital (Northern Sydney Local Health District). My areas of specialty interest include:

  • Nose and sinus surgery
  • Paediatric ENT conditions
  • Allergy and chronic sinus conditions
  • Rhinoplasty
  • Anterior skull base surgery
