The demand for ear and hearing healthcare services is growing rapidly due to an ever-increasing ageing population, exposure to loud noises such as music and machinery, the increased use of headphones, and even the way we clear our ears using cotton ear buds has an adverse effect to our daily lives.
The current patient pathway to ear and hearing healthcare can be both disjointed and relatively inaccessible. Many patients move from appointment to appointment, spread over several weeks, if not months.
The average waiting time for patients to receive treatment was 12-16 weeks (pre-Covid), this has now grown substantially. Not only that, but most GPs have also stopped offering wax removal as a service (BBC), which has a significant impact on access and wellbeing.

During an appointment your clinician will be able to assess your ears, and if wax is present, gently remove it with microsuction. Microsuction is the gold standard of wax removal and is considered safer than other methods such as irrigation.
Once wax has been removed a hearing screening can be performed. This will identify whether you have a level of hearing loss. If you do have a hearing loss your clinician may refer you to an audiologist for further investigation. However, in many cases, the initial problem could’ve simply been down to the presence of wax itself.

Ear wax removal is a procedure to safely extract excess or impacted earwax that may be causing discomfort, hearing loss, or other issues.
Symptoms include hearing loss, earache, tinnitus, dizziness, or a feeling of fullness in the ear. If you're experiencing these, a professional consultation is recommended.
No, ear wax removal is generally painless. Some methods, like microsuction, are more comfortable than others like ear syringing. A professional will use the safest method for you.
Common methods include microsuction, irrigation (syringing), and manual removal with special tools. Microsuction is typically the safest and most efficient.
Yes, microsuction is considered safer and more precise as it uses gentle suction, while syringing uses water pressure, which may not be suitable for everyone.
The procedure usually takes around 15-30 minutes, depending on the amount of wax and the method used.
No, using cotton swabs can push wax deeper into the ear and may cause injury. It’s best to let a professional handle ear wax removal.
It varies depending on how quickly your body produces wax. Most people need it every 6-12 months, but this can vary.
Some insurance plans may cover ear wax removal, but this depends on your provider. Check with your insurer for details.
Yes, if your hearing loss is caused by impacted earwax, removal can restore hearing immediately.
