01 / The professional profile
Published clinical background, scope and location. Confirm current arrangements with the team.
ENT surgeon with rhinology and facial plastic surgery training
Read the official profile ↗Munish Shandilya’s UPMC profile describes initial ENT surgical training in India, further surgical training through the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and a fellowship in rhinology and facial plastic surgery in Amsterdam. It records consultant otolaryngology work in Waterford followed by private practice at Whitfield, with a particular interest in rhinoplasty. Official profile ↗
This is a facial and nasal surgery profile grounded in an ENT background, rather than a general breast or body plastic surgery listing.

02 / Before you book
Four conversations to have before choosing a date.
Open the doctor’s full Medical Council record and check the relevant specialist division and any restrictions.
Medical Council — Check the Register ↗Ask about expected changes, alternatives, limitations and risks that matter to you. Discuss your health history and medicines with the treating clinician.
Questions before a procedure ↗Ask where treatment takes place, who provides anesthesia and what arrangements cover complications. A consultation office may be separate from the surgical facility.
ISAPS patient resources ↗Ask for written aftercare, scheduled reviews and a contact for urgent concerns. Discuss travel plans and practical support before paying a deposit.
Contact the practice ↗03 / Consultation conversations
These discussion prompts are not a procedure catalogue or a determination of individual suitability.
Explain your priorities for appearance, function or reconstruction in your own words. Ask which concerns this specialist can assess.
Which concerns are within your practice, and which need another specialist?
Discuss appropriate alternatives after an individual evaluation, including the choice to defer treatment.
How do the options differ in their limitations and risks?
Ask how the proposed approach may affect visible scars, symmetry and existing facial features.
What result is realistic for my anatomy and circumstances?
Functional or reconstructive concerns may involve more than one clinical team. Confirm who will coordinate the plan.
Will any other clinician need to assess me before a decision?
Ask where treatment would take place and who would provide anesthesia and postoperative support.
Is the consultation address different from the treatment facility?
Discuss written aftercare, review appointments and practical support before booking.
What follow-up would I need, and how are urgent questions handled?
04 / Understanding the quote
The worksheet below uses EUR. Use amounts from the same currency; it does not convert exchange rates. If care is in another country, request the quote in this currency or calculate separately.
Request the consultation and procedure fees in writing, with the name of the treating professional.
Check whether these are included in a package or billed separately. Enter each charge only once.
Ask whether implants, garments, medicines or other materials are included where relevant.
Clarify which assessments and review appointments are included and what extra visits may cost.
Budget using your own arrangements. Confirm the treatment and follow-up locations first.
Read deposit, cancellation, refund and revision terms. Ask about costs if additional care is needed.
No local fees or price estimates are supplied here. Ask the practice to confirm currency, taxes, inclusions and exclusions. EUR currency reference ↗
05 / The consultation notebook
Use this personal planning notebook to prepare for a consultation with your treating team. Enter amounts from your own written quote; the worksheet does not estimate treatment costs.
Prepare your conversation
Tick a topic once you have a clear answer. Bring any unanswered questions to your clinician.
A discussion aid, not a medical assessment. No answers or personal health details are collected.
Read the whole quote
Enter amounts from your own quote or estimates. Every field starts empty; this worksheet does not suggest prices.
Confirm whether each amount includes taxes. This tool does not add taxes, estimate rebates or fill in missing costs. Enter a fee once; if a package already includes a category, avoid counting it twice.
Blank fields are unknown, not free. An entered subtotal is not a complete treatment quote. Ask what follow-up, revisions or unexpected care may cost.
Use non-negative amounts up to EUR 1,000,000,000,000 per field, with no more than two decimal places. Figures and ticks remain only in this open page; nothing is sent or saved by these tools.

UPMC lists MS (ENT), FRCS Ed (OTO) and FRCS (ORL-HNS) and describes facial plastic training and EAFPS involvement. These should not be relabelled as general plastic surgery qualifications. Check the current Medical Council specialist record and discuss the relevant scope directly.
