What else do you need to know?
- You need to arrive promptly for your appointment, as audiology appointments do run on time.
- After checking in please take a seat in the Audiology Waiting Area (next to the X-ray) rather than the main waiting room in area C
- You can collect hearing aid batteries from the reception desk (area C) or audiology booths during working hours without appointment.
- You do need to book an appointment in advance if you need repair, adjustment or you lost your hearing aids as we do not take any walk ins.
- If you are coming for a hearing assessment and excessive wax is present in your ears, it may delay your care. Please make an appointment with your GP at the earliest opportunity to have your ears checked. If wax removal is required your GP can arrange this within the community.
- Patients for the vestibular clinic should not take vertigo medication or consume any alcohol for 48 hours before their appointment.
- Please remove any eye makeup before attending the appointment.
