What Happens During The Appointment?
-
What happens during your appointment will depend on whether you are getting a hearing test or earwax removal.
During a hearing test appointment one of our team will have a professional chat about your relevant medical history and your specific problems. They will examine your outer ears, ear canals and the eardrums. If the ear canals are clear we will explain how we will perform the hearing test and you will go in either a sound booth or an acoustic treated booth to be tested.
At an earwax removal appointment you’ll have a thorough consultation with your ear care specialist to discuss and note your relevant medical history and you can ask any questions.
We then use a specialised instrument, with a tiny video camera that transmits images to a screen, to look into your ears. During your procedure, your qualified practitioner uses a special binocular microscope to view the ear canal and eardrum while using a low-pressure suction device to very gently remove the earwax. -
How Long Do Procedures Take?
- Microsuction earwax removal usually takes between 15 to 30 minutes. Hearing tests usually take between 40 to 60 minutes.
-
What Are The Fees For The Procedures?
- You can find our full price list and our professional charges on our fees page.
-
Is There Anything To Do Before The Procedure?
- Before an earwax removal appointment we recommend using olive oil ‘ear drops’ morning and evening for two to three days before your visit. This will soften the build-up of earwax and make removal easier.
