Frequently asked questions
What does “per ear” mean?
It means the appointment and care are focused on one ear. If both ears need attention, you may be advised to book a separate appointment for the other ear.
How long does the appointment take?
The appointment usually takes around 15 minutes, depending on what is found when your ear is checked.
What happens during the visit?
You will be asked about your symptoms, your ear will be checked, and if appropriate the wax will be removed from the booked ear. You will also get simple aftercare guidance.
Do I need to do anything before I come in?
If you have been using ear drops or softening drops, let us know what you used and for how long. Bring a list of your regular medicines if possible.
Will I feel better straight away?
Many people notice improvement quickly, but it can take a little time for your ear to feel completely normal. You will be told what to expect for your situation.
Can I wear my hearing aid after wax removal?
Often you can, but it depends on how your ear feels afterwards. You will be given personalised advice on when to put it back in comfortably.
