About Mr Chadwan Al Yaghchi
Mr Chadwan Al Yaghchi is an innovative, experienced, and respected consultant ear, nose, and throat surgeon. He specialises in adult laryngology, focusing on the voice box, and treats all throat disorders, including airway stenosis, voice disorders, and swallowing difficulties. He has a specialist interest in voice feminisation surgery.
Mr Al Yaghchi completed his higher surgical training in the London North Thames regional rotation, working at prestigious teaching hospitals such as Charing Cross Hospital, University College London Hospital, and Royal London Hospital. He holds a PhD in Molecular Oncology from Queen Mary's University of London, where he researched head and neck cancer treatments using oncolytic viruses as immunotherapy.
His adult NHS practice is part of the National Centre for Airway Reconstruction and Imperial Complex Laryngology Service at Charing Cross Hospital, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. He is also an honorary consultant at The Royal Brompton and Harefield NHS Foundation Trust, treating children with complex airway and swallowing conditions.
Mr Al Yaghchi developed a special interest in transgender healthcare, introducing several voice feminisation procedures to the UK, including a modification to the Wendler Glottoplasty technique. His pioneering work in gender affirmation surgery has helped many trans women achieve a voice that reflects their gender identity.
He performs various procedures, including microscopic vocal cords surgery, laser treatment of the vocal cords, vocal cord medialisation, Botox injections, dysphagia surgery, airway laser and dilatation, and airway reconstruction. He also specialises in paediatric otolaryngology, performing adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy, supraglottoplasty, and treating conditions like airway stenosis and obstructive sleep apnoea.
