A considered conversation.

MS (ENT), FRCS Ed (OTO), FRCS (ORL-HNS) · ENT surgeon with rhinology and facial plastic surgery training

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. Ask how functional breathing concerns and appearance will be assessed, what alternatives exist and how postoperative review and any revision needs are managed. Practice information ↗

The featured practice is at UPMC Whitfield Hospital on Cork Road in Butlerstown North, Waterford. Confirm the current clinic schedule and whether a referral is needed. This profile concerns rhinology and facial surgery; patients considering breast or body operations should ask the hospital for a clinician with the relevant specialty. Published contact details ↗

Contact the practice ↗

03 / Consultation conversations

Explore the questions.

These discussion prompts are not a procedure catalogue or a determination of individual suitability.

01

Define your goals

Explain your priorities for appearance, function or reconstruction in your own words. Ask which concerns this specialist can assess.

Ask your clinician

Which concerns are within your practice, and which need another specialist?

02

Compare approaches

Discuss appropriate alternatives after an individual evaluation, including the choice to defer treatment.

Ask your clinician

How do the options differ in their limitations and risks?

03

Scars and expectations

Ask how the proposed approach may affect visible scars, symmetry and existing facial features.

Ask your clinician

What result is realistic for my anatomy and circumstances?

04

Coordinate specialists

Functional or reconstructive concerns may involve more than one clinical team. Confirm who will coordinate the plan.

Ask your clinician

Will any other clinician need to assess me before a decision?

05

Confirm the facility

Ask where treatment would take place and who would provide anesthesia and postoperative support.

Ask your clinician

Is the consultation address different from the treatment facility?

06

Plan follow-up

Discuss written aftercare, review appointments and practical support before booking.

Ask your clinician

What follow-up would I need, and how are urgent questions handled?

04 / Understanding the quote

A budget built on your own 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.

Clinical fees

Request the consultation and procedure fees in writing, with the name of the treating professional.

Facility and anesthesia

Check whether these are included in a package or billed separately. Enter each charge only once.

Devices and materials

Ask whether implants, garments, medicines or other materials are included where relevant.

Tests and follow-up

Clarify which assessments and review appointments are included and what extra visits may cost.

Travel and support

Budget using your own arrangements. Confirm the treatment and follow-up locations first.

Terms and future care

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

Arrive with better questions.

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

Consultation checklist

Tick a topic once you have a clear answer. Bring any unanswered questions to your clinician.

Questions to discuss with your treating team

A discussion aid, not a medical assessment. No answers or personal health details are collected.

Read the whole quote

Your EUR budget worksheet

Enter amounts from your own quote or estimates. Every field starts empty; this worksheet does not suggest prices.

Keep the quote in context

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.

06 / Professional checks

Read the credentials carefully.

The featured office is in Ireland. Use the verification route relevant to the place where treatment will occur.

Published background

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.

Official profile ↗

Ask about this treatment

Check the clinician’s relevant specialty and experience for your proposed procedure. Society membership, an online biography and a register entry provide different kinds of information.
