HEARING TESTS
Hearing loss affects every aspect of your life and dealing with it alone can be overwhelming. With a free hearing test, you can take the first step towards regaining your hearing and getting the support you need.
Our hearing specialist operates out of our practice here in Castle Douglas, so you can get the care you need from a convenient location. We will take plenty of time to get to know you and look for all kinds of hearing loss during the examination. All hearing tests are free, so if you’re concerned about your hearing get in touch today and we’ll schedule you in for an appointment.
WAX REMOVAL
Often, the cause of hearing loss is a blockage caused by too much ear wax. This is a common problem that can also lead to other uncomfortable symptoms. During your hearing test, we will be able to tell you if you could benefit from a simple wax removal procedure. Wax removal is carried out using microsuction, which is simple, safe and provides the best results.
