Hearing Assessments
Our comprehensive hearing assessments identify age-related or noise-induced hearing loss through advanced diagnostic techniques. Using otoscopy, tympanometry, and audiometry, we determine the extent and nature of hearing impairment. Tailored to individual lifestyles, these tests guide the selection of appropriate solutions, including NHS or private hearing aids.
Ear Wax Removal
We offer safe, efficient ear wax removal using micro suction or water irrigation. These methods resolve hearing blockages caused by wax buildup without pre-treatment oils. Appointments are available promptly, often within days, with reduced rates for returning customers.
Hearing Aids
We supply NHS and private hearing aids, including behind-the-ear models from leading manufacturers. Personalised fittings ensure optimal comfort and effectiveness, with same-day processing for NHS patients. Regular aftercare and battery supplies support long-term usability.
Mobility Products
Our range includes electric recliner chairs, mobility scooters, wheelchairs, and bathing aids. Sourced from trusted brands like Age UK and Cosyfeet, these products enhance independence for individuals with mobility challenges in Devon and Cornwall.
Tinnitus Management
We provide strategies to manage tinnitus, a common condition linked to hearing loss. Our approach includes education, sound therapy, and hearing aid integration to reduce the impact of persistent noises like ringing or buzzing.
