About this service
Full assessment and treatment of the ear — from accurate hearing testing and safe wax removal to treatment of glue ear, inner-ear conditions and vertigo.
Why it matters
Hearing changes are easy to dismiss but affect speech development in children and communication and confidence in adults. Accurate testing identifies whether the cause is wax, the middle ear or the inner ear, so treatment is targeted.
