How to book
Book a hearing test with our audiology team — and if you'd benefit from a hearing aid, we'll guide you through every step, with no obligation to buy.
Choose a hearing test slot with our audiologist — appointments available at all our clinics.
The audiologist checks the health of your ears, then runs tones at different pitches and a bone-conduction test.
Aftercare advice based on your results. If a hearing aid would help, we'll talk you through your options.
What happens during a test
Our audiologist takes you through every step, starting with a quick check that your ear canals are clear and healthy. The test itself usually takes 30–60 minutes.
A quick look inside your ears with a modern otoscope to make sure everything's in order before testing.
You'll wear headphones and press a button each time you hear a sound — across high, medium and low frequencies.
A small headband measures how well you hear sound conducted through vibration — useful for diagnosing the type of hearing loss.
Clear, plain-English explanation of your results, aftercare advice, and a GP review or referral if needed.
