About Your Ear Examination
Firstly, we will sit down with you and discuss your needs in great detail, ensuring that we provide you with the correct solution to fix your hearing problems. This usually involves looking inside the canal to your ear using a special tool that lights and magnifies your inner ear (otoscope). From here, we can prescribe the right treatment that you should head forward with. As you prepare for your appointment, it’s a good idea to write a list of questions which concerns you may have.

How Does Ear Wax Removal Work?
We are experts when it comes to professionally removing ear wax with ease and comfortability. Our most popular method includes softening the wax through saline, mineral oil or olive oil agents. This helps loosen the wax so that it can leave the ear more easily for when we use our suction technique. Microsuction ear wax removal uses a compact suction device while looking into your ear, ensuring that we are removing as much wax as possible. This treatment has become increasingly popular over the years as it’s safe and pain-free for the patient. Many people also find it a lot more comfortable than out-dated techniques such as ear syringing.
Hearing Screening Test
A hearing screening is a quick test to see how well you hear a different range of sounds. You can either pass or fail the test. f you pass, you do not need to do anything else. If you fail, you may need more testing to see if you have a hearing loss or a build up of wax. Our audiologists can give you a more complete hearing test if you fail the screening. This is called an evaluation, and you should have it done as soon as possible after the screening. Take care of your hearing like you take care of the rest of your body. Get your hearing screened if you ever experience any problems.
