Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
Is the free hearing screening check really free?
Yes, it is. We offer a totally free, no-obligation hearing screening check to anybody over the age of 16. The check is designed to give an indication of the state of your hearing, i.e., if it’s normal or not. If the screening check indicates that further testing may be required, we will go through all of the options with you and also explain what, if any the cost implications would be. However, you are under no obligation whatsoever.
What’s involved in a hearing test?
A full hearing consultation at Hear Again takes an hour and a half. We realise that this is somewhat longer than some others may take and that’s because we think its really important that we understand how your hearing issues impact your quality of life. We also conduct a full battery of tests both traditional and scientific so that we are able to fully comprehend your hearing problem and recommend the best possible solutions. Whilst you need take no specific action in preparation for your hearing assessment, many patients find it is useful to have someone special with them for support.
How much do hearing aids cost?
Like most things in life, hearing aids come in a range of prices. Our hearing experts will help you to identify the best hearing aids for you and at the same time ensure that they are within your budget. We can even offer the possibility of spreading the cost over several months to help and we can explain the potential of some government assistance too.
Is your clinic wheelchair friendly?
