If I have a hearing test, will it definitely mean that I need a hearing aid?

No. We will never tell you that you need a hearing aid if you don’t. You will receive clear, honest advice based upon the results of your hearing assessment. We will help you make an informed decision and you will never be under any pressure.

How long will my hearing test take?

We always allow an hour and a half for a full hearing test. Unlike other bigger organisations, we take the time to do a thorough assessment to ensure you get the very best results.

Who will carry out my hearing test?

Your hearing test will be conducted by Alan Jackson, who is a qualified Audiologist registered with the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC). All your fitting and aftercare appointments will also be with Alan.

Are hearing aids unattractive and uncomfortable?

No. Like other items such as mobile phones and cameras, technology has moved on and today’s hearing aids are smaller, lighter and very discreet. In some cases they are totally invisible and others won’t know you are wearing them. A hearing aid should never be uncomfortable. At Nantwich Hearing Centre we will ensure yours fit perfectly.

Early indications of hearing loss are;

Frequently having to ask people to repeat themselves.
Having difficulty hearing in noisy or busy places
Misunderstanding conversations
Finding that people are mumbling
Having to increase the volume on the television
Avoiding social situations

If any of the above sound familiar then we recommend that you make an appointment with a qualified audiologist.
