Hearing Tests

A full audiological hearing assessment at our Hawick clinic. You'll leave with a clear picture of your hearing — no jargon, no pressure, just honest answers.

What's involved in a hearing test?

01

Case history

We start with a conversation about your hearing concerns, medical history, and lifestyle. This helps us understand what matters most to you.

02

Otoscopy

A visual inspection of your ear canals and eardrums using an otoscope — checking for wax, infection, or any structural concerns.

03

Pure tone audiometry

You listen to a series of tones through headphones and indicate when you can hear them. This maps your hearing thresholds across different frequencies.

04

Results and discussion

Your audiogram is explained clearly — what it shows, what it means for you, and what options are available. No pressure, no hard sell.

Who should have a hearing test?

  • You've noticed you're asking people to repeat themselves
