We’re pleased to announce that Scott Wroe Hearing is now offering a regular satellite clinic at David Kear Opticians Cinderford in the Forest of Dean. This means patients in Cinderford, Coleford, Lydney and the surrounding villages can now access our trusted services closer to home.

At our new Forest of Dean clinic, we’ll be providing:

• Earwax removal – using microsuction or irrigation, whichever is safest and most effective.
• Full private hearing tests – carried out by qualified audiologists using the same state of the art equipment as our main centres.

The clinic will run weekly, making it easier for local residents to access care without needing to travel to Hereford, Malvern or Penarth.

Why Choose Scott Wroe Hearing?

Unlike the big high street chains, we’re independent. That means we’re free to recommend hearing aids from all the leading brands – including Oticon, Phonak and Widex – based on what’s genuinely best for you.

Patients at our Forest of Dean satellite clinic will benefit from the same:

• Personal, consistent care from the same audiologists
• Access to the latest hearing technology
• Honest, pressure free advice
• Clear pricing and excellent aftercare

Supporting All Our Centres

We now have clinics in:

• Hereford – 6 Blackfriars Street, HR4 9HS
• Malvern – 74 Barnards Green Road, WR14 3LY
• Penarth – 10 Royal Buildings, Stanwell Road, CF64 3ED
• Forest of Dean (David Kear Opticians) – 1 Woodside Street, Cinderford, GL14 2NL

Wherever you’re based, you’ll find the same independent care, transparent pricing and continuity of service.

Scott Wroe Hearing is proud to serve patients across Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, South Wales and the Forest of Dean. With clinics in Hereford, Malvern, Penarth and now a satellite service in the Forest of Dean, expert independent hearing care has never been closer to home.

If you’re looking for straightforward, independent hearing care in Hereford, Malvern or Penarth – without the pushy sales pitch – that’s exactly what we offer.

We provide full hearing tests, hearing aid fittings and safe earwax removal using microsuction. Our clinics are family run, not tied to commission or brand targets, which means the advice you get is based on what actually suits your hearing, not what’s most expensive.

A lot of patients come to us after being quoted thousands elsewhere, or after feeling rushed through the process. We take our time. You’ll get clear explanations, honest recommendations and support long after you walk out the door – whether or not you decide to go ahead with hearing aids.

Earwax removal is also one of the most common reasons people visit us. It’s a simple procedure but makes a big difference when done properly. We use microsuction in all three clinics (Hereford, Malvern and Penarth) – which is quicker, safer and much more comfortable than syringing.

We’ve been doing this a long time – since 1988- and we still believe that local, personal care matters. Each of our clinics is run by experienced audiologists, with proper equipment and a no nonsense approach. There are no bundles, no confusing tiers and no pressure to commit to anything.

Whether you’re booking in for a check up, new hearing aids or just want your ears cleared, we’ll look after you properly.

You can contact your nearest clinic directly to book or ask any questions – or come in for a chat. We’re happy to help.

Spot the Difference – And when to see a specialist

Have you ever wondered whether your hearing is affected by earwax or hearing loss? Many of our patients come to us unsure – they just know that something isn’t quite right. That’s why at Scott Wroe Hearing Centres in Hereford, Malvern and Penarth, we offer honest, professional advice tailored to your needs.

Common signs of Earwax Build Up

Excess earwax can cause:

• Muffled or reduced hearing
• Feeling of fullness or discomfort in the ear
• Itching or ringing in the ear
• Temporary hearing loss that improves after removal

Earwax is a natural, protective substance but sometimes too much can block the ear canal. Our fully trained audiologists use microsuction, irrigation or manual removal – whichever is the most comfortable and effective for you.

Could it be Hearing Loss?

If you are noticing:

• Struggling to hear in group conversations
• Turning up the TV louder than others
• Asking people to repeat themselves often
• Missing high pitched sounds like doorbells or birdsong

……it could be hearing loss – and the earlier we catch it, the easier it is to manage. Our comprehensive hearing tests use state of the art sound booths and equipment to give you a full, clear picture of your hearing health.

Why See an Independent Specialist?

When you visit Scott Wroe Hearing Centres in Hereford, Malvern or Penarth, you’ll be seeing experienced, independent audiologists – not a salesperson. Our focus is on care and quality:

✅The most advanced ear care equipment including surgical microscopes

✅Fully adjustable ENT chairs for your safety and comfort

Why Expert Care Makes the Difference

When it comes to your hearing, experience matters. At Scott Wroe Hearing Centres in Hereford, Malvern and Penarth, we’ve been looking after people’s hearing for over 35 years. Our team of qualified hearing aid audiologists is dedicated to making sure you hear at your very best – whether that’s by safely removing earwax or providing a full hearing test.

Why Earwax Removal is Essential for Healthy Living

Earwax is natural and protective, but too much can cause real discomfort – blocked ears, hearing loss, ringing and even infections. Many people put up with these symptoms or try to manage them at home with ear drops or cotton buds, which often makes the problem worse.

That’s where we can help. Every earwax removal is carried out by experienced hearing aid audiologists using the most appropriate method – microsuction, irrigation (also known as syringing) or manual removal – whichever is safest and most comfortable for you. Whether you visit our Hereford, Malvern or Penarth clinic, we’ll choose the gentlest and most effective option for your ears.

When Should You Book a Hearing Test

Hearing loss usually develops so gradually that you might not even notice at first. If you:

• Struggle to follow conversations in background noise
• Find yourself asking people to repeat themselves
• Have the television turned up louder than everyone else
• Experience buzzing or ringing in your ears

….It’s probably time for a hearing check. Our soundproof booths and up to date audiology equipment allow us to carry out thorough hearing tests and explain the results clearly. From there, we can offer honest, practical advice – whether that’s hearing aids, hearing protection, or simply reassurance. No pressure, just professional guidance.

Why Choose Scott Wroe Hearing?

When it comes to your ears, you deserve the very best. That’s why we’ve invested in the highest quality equipment and clinic set up you’ll find in independent practice. Every Earwax removal is carried out using a surgical microscope for crystal clear visibility and our fully adjustable ENT chairs ensure you’re in a safe, comfortable position throughout. Our investment in our clinics means that we can deliver the most precise, gentle and thorough earwax removal every time.

And of course:

• Microsuction, irrigation/syringing and manual removal are all available – we’ll always choose the most suitable method for you
• Clear, transparent pricing – earwax removal £68.50, hearing tests £47.5
• Friendly, independent service with over 35 years of hearing care experience
• Clinics in Hereford, Malvern and Penarth – easy to reach, with short wait times

If you’d like to look after your hearing properly, give one of our clinics a call or book online – we’d be happy to see you

Hearing is one of our most vital senses, yet many people neglect their hearing health until problems arise. Imagine missing out on the laughter of loved ones or struggling to hear your favourite music. At Scott Wroe Hearing Centre, we encourage regular hearing tests to ensure early detection of any hearing loss. But when should you get checked and what are the benefits of regular hearing assessments?

When Should You Have a Hearing Test?

Hearing tests are not just for those who already have noticeable hearing loss. You should consider booking a test if:

• You struggle to hear conversations in noisy environments
• You often ask people to repeat themselves
• You work in a noisy environment
• You are over 50 – hearing naturally declines with age
• Family and friends have noticed changes in your hearing

The Benefits of Regular Hearing Tests

• Early Detection – Identifying hearing loss early allows for better management and treatment options
• Improved Quality of Life – Addressing hearing issues can improve communication and social interactions
• Better Overall Health – Untreated hearing loss has been linked to cognitive decline and an increased risk of dementia
• Personalised Solutions – We offer tailored hearing aid solutions to suit your lifestyle and hearing needs

Hints & Tips for Healthy Living

1. Protect Your Ears from Loud Noises – Use earplugs in noisy environments to prevent damage
2. Limit Earphone Use – Keep volume levels below 60% and take breaks to reduce strain
3. Clean Your Ears Safely – Avoid cotton buds; instead, opt for professional earwax removal
4. Stay Active & Eat Well – A healthy lifestyle can positively impact hearing health
5. Book Regular Hearing Tests – Prevention is key; regular check ups can catch issues early
