Mr Harry Powell is a consultant ear, nose and throat surgeon who has worked as a consultant at Guy’s and St Thomas’ since 2016.

After studying at the United Medical and Dental Schools of Guy’s and St Thomas’, he undertook basic surgical training in Bristol, followed by ENT specialist training at The Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear, Great Ormond Street and The Royal Marsden hospitals.

He returned to Guy’s and St Thomas’ for another year of fellowship training before being appointed as a consultant otologist and auditory implant surgeon in September 2016.
