Frequently asked

Frequently asked questions

How much does ear wax removal cost in Durham?

Home ear wax removal in Durham is £60 for one ear and £80 for both ears. This includes the home visit, ear check, microsuction treatment where suitable and aftercare advice.

What method do you use?

We use microsuction, which is widely regarded as the safest and most comfortable method of ear wax removal. It does not require water and is suitable for most patients, including those with sensitive ears or a history of ear problems.

Does ear wax removal hurt?

Microsuction is not usually painful. You may notice some noise during the procedure, and occasionally a brief sensation of coolness or mild dizziness, but most patients find it straightforward and quick.

How long does a home ear wax removal appointment take?

Most appointments take between 30 and 45 minutes, including the initial ear check, treatment and aftercare advice. The microsuction itself usually takes 15 to 20 minutes.

Do I need to prepare before my appointment?

Using olive oil drops or spray for two to three days before your appointment can help soften the wax and make removal more comfortable. This is not always required but is recommended where possible.

Can I book ear wax removal for a parent or relative in Durham?

Yes. Family members can request a home appointment on behalf of a parent, grandparent or relative. The appointment takes place at their home and family members are welcome to sit in.

Will my hearing improve straight away?

Many patients notice an immediate improvement in hearing and comfort after microsuction. Results can vary depending on the amount and position of wax, and your audiologist will advise you after the appointment.

Which areas around Durham do you cover?

We cover Durham city and surrounding County Durham communities including Chester-le-Street, Consett, Stanley, Spennymoor, Bishop Auckland, Newton Aycliffe and Ferryhill. Availability is confirmed by postcode.
