Dr. Jonathan Field answered

Specializes in Pediatrics - Allergy & Asthma

Private Tonsillectomy: I would have your tonsils and adenoids evaluated by an ear,nose, and throat specialist. If they feel that they need to be removed this can be done privately in an outpatient setting. Occasionally it's required to have an inpatient stay for more complex procedures.
