About me
Miss Alison Carter is an experienced Consultant Paediatric ENT Surgeon at the Royal National Ear, Nose, and Throat Hospital, part of University College London Hospitals (UCLH). She specialises in diagnosing and treating a wide range of ear, nose, and throat conditions in infants and children, combining advanced medical expertise with a warm, family-centred approach.
She graduated from Nottingham University in 2010 and completed her training on the highly competitive North Thames ENT training programme. After obtaining her Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS-ORLHNS), she pursued a paediatric ENT fellowship at the internationally renowned Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.
In her NHS role, Miss Carter performs a wide variety of paediatric ENT procedures and plays a key role in the UCLH neonatal tongue-tie service, working alongside the infant feeding team to support newborns with feeding difficulties.
Academically, she has presented her research across the UK and internationally, authored over 20 publications in peer-reviewed journals, and contributed to a widely used ENT textbook, as well as receiving several surgical awards. Beyond her clinical work, she is passionate about medical education, actively teaching students and allied healthcare professionals to enhance their understanding of ENT.
As a mother of two young children, she understands first-hand the concerns parents face when their child is unwell. She is committed to providing expert care while ensuring families feel informed, supported, and confident in their child's healthcare journey.
