Hearing tests & hearing aids in Downend
Anyone over the age of 18 can get a hearing test, and if you’re aged 55 or over, you’re entitled to a FREE hearing test and hearing healthcare check up. This is because hearing loss is largely, but not always, age related. We recommend booking a hearing test every year. You don’t need a GP or ENT referral, just fill in the form below to request an appointment with an independent audiologist at our Downend hearing care practice.
If you need, or already have hearing aids, as part of your hearing consultation with our audiologist, we will explain the various types of hearing aids to you, and make recommendations based on your hearing loss, your needs and usage of the hearing solution. And because we are independent, you can choose from a full range of hearing aids from all the leading manufacturers, unlike many hearing aid providers.
Ear wax removal in Downend
Earwax is good for the health of your ears and it plays a vital role in preventing infection and removing debris from the ear canal. However, some people produce more than others, making them prone to a build-up over time that can become hard and impacted, leading to irritation, hearing loss, or infection, if not removed. Our qualified audiologists at our Downend practice can provide effective and safe ear wax removal for instant relief from any pain or discomfort.

Nick Thomas
Nick has been in audiology for over 5 years, having studied at Mary Hare Newbury under Oxford Brooks University. After qualifying he also trained in wax removal. Nick believes the most enjoyable part of his job is meeting and helping clients with hearing difficulties. He finds it an extremely satisfying profession, meeting clients and helping them to improve their hearing. Nick has three children and two grandchildren that take up a great deal of his spare time. When not with them, and weather permitting, he says there is nothing better than rolling his Harley Davidson out of the garage and hitting the open road. Top of Nick’s bucket list is to take his Harley to America’s Yellowstone national park.
