Services
Ear Wax Removal
Our audiologists use microsuction and irrigation to safely remove ear wax blockages. This prevents hearing loss, tinnitus, and infections while ensuring patient comfort. The process takes 20-45 minutes, with immediate relief reported by most clients. We prioritise dry, healthy ears post-treatment.
Hearing Aid Fitting
We offer tailored hearing aid fittings from leading brands like Starkey and Phonak. Our audiologists assess lifestyle needs to recommend devices with features such as Bluetooth connectivity and water resistance. Follow-up optimisation ensures long-term satisfaction and adaptability to new technology.
Custom Ear Plugs
We create bespoke ear plugs for noise protection, swimming, and sleep using medical-grade silicone. These durable, comfortable solutions reduce harmful noise exposure while allowing speech clarity. Clients include musicians, shooters, and industrial workers seeking reliable ear health maintenance.
Hearing Tests
Our free diagnostic hearing tests use advanced technology to identify hearing loss causes. Audiologists explain results clearly, offering unbiased advice on solutions. Tests are non-invasive and suitable for all ages, with referrals for complex cases requiring specialist intervention.
Tinnitus Management
We address tinnitus through hearing aids with sound therapy features and personalised counselling. Our approach reduces symptom severity by tackling underlying hearing loss. Patients report improved quality of life through tailored strategies and ongoing support from experienced audiologists.

What happens during a hearing test?
A hearing test involves using advanced equipment to assess your hearing thresholds. Our audiologists explain results clearly and discuss suitable solutions tailored to your lifestyle and budget.
Do you offer emergency appointments for sudden hearing loss?
Yes, we provide urgent appointments for sudden hearing loss. Prompt assessment and treatment can prevent permanent damage, ensuring the best possible recovery outcomes.
Are your ear wax removal methods safe?
Yes, we use clinically approved microsuction and irrigation, performed by trained audiologists. These methods are safe, effective, and minimise risks of complications or discomfort.
Can I try hearing aids before buying?
Yes, we offer trial periods for hearing aids to ensure they meet your needs. Our audiologists guide you through features and adjustments for optimal comfort and performance.
