During training in otolaryngology (Ear Nose & Throat Surgery) & Head Neck Surgery, Dr. Duggal identified a growing need to provide more specialised care for those people with ENT, Head Neck, Skull base conditions and those wanting facial aesthetic correction. Much of the medical field had subspecialised allowing some doctors to provide their patients with a greater knowledge and care in particular fields that was not offered by standard training alone. Few doctors, however, had travelled abroad to gain a greater knowledge of advanced procedure in Sleep and Snoring Surgery.
With this aim in mind to provide specialized and dedicated sub-specialty wise care to the patients, Dr. Duggal started DuggalENT inside Swift Hospital on the busy Majitha Road in Amritsar.
