Ear health check

Comprehensive ear health checks by Hearwell

A thorough check of your ears by an HCPC-registered Audiologist, at home or at our Wigston clinic, so you know they’re healthy, or what to do if they’re not.

Why book an ear health check?

Sometimes, hearing changes, irritation, or discomfort aren’t caused by a build-up of ear wax.

This standalone service is perfect for those who want peace of mind about their ear health, need a professional opinion on a specific issue, or simply want to ensure their ears are healthy and clear.

What to expect during your check

Your appointment will be quick, comfortable, and highly informative.

  1. Detailed examination

    Using specialised equipment, your Hearwell Audiologist will carefully inspect your ear canal and eardrum.

  2. See for yourself

    You are welcome to view the inside of your ear on the screen with us as we carry out the examination.

  3. Expert assessment

    We will check for any signs of infection, inflammation, foreign objects, or general blockages.

  4. Professional advice

    Following the check, we will give you a clear explanation of your ear health and a personalised care plan. If medical attention is required, we can arrange an ENT referral via a letter to your GP.

  5. Upgrade to wax removal

    If we discover that ear wax is present and causing an issue, we can upgrade your appointment to ear wax removal on the spot, provided you consent and it is safe to do so. You simply pay the ear wax removal price (£45 for one ear, £70 for both ears) instead of the £25 check fee.
