The Experience The ear clinic was easy to find & I was greeted warmly by Alan. His room was super clean, slightly clinical, with nice artwork of the inside of an ear hanging from the wall. Alan was sympathetic, understanding and made me feel at ease immediately He explained simply what was going to happen and that he would do his utmost to help. The Procedure Alan explained all of the equipment in the room and what he would be doing step by step. This gave me absolute clarity and comfort in what to expect since I felt some mild anxiety about what this was going to entail. First, he asked if I would like to see what he could see as he looked in my ears. He could show me a magnified version on the screen in front of me. Alan explained that this wax had been there for years and years, compacted down on top of more and more, so it becomes hard, dark and very difficult to remove by yourself Reality Alan explained it might feel tender at times as he might need to scape away at my funky old ear wax and to let him know so he could ease off if it did. My confidence in him helping me was huge because of the way he treated me. He managed to clear both ears completely and I sense he was as relieved as I was since it took longer than the average set of ears apparently! ;) My face was aching from smiling as I shook Alan’s hand vigorously, he was smiling too and I think he understood because as I was leaving I was almost crying, overcome with the joy of sound. I drove home smiling I had to turn my stereo down I enjoyed sounds Very very strongly recommend and I would go back because this was an investment NOT an expense! Thank you Alanread more

I can only say that visiting the Nottingham Hearing practice has been exellent from start to finish. I was unsure about purchasing my hearing aids but after being given a free trial of two hearing aid types I was so much more aware of sounds than I can remember. It has been a long time since I have received such personal service and impartial advice. Thankyou to all. Money very well spent.read more

I had a very positive experience with this practice. The staff members are kind, ready to listen and talk you through the treatment, which in my case was microsuction on both ears. It was fast and painless and really effective. I highly recommend and would definitely come back.read more

I came to the Hearing Clinic last Wednesday after months of feeling locked in my own head and isolated due to my blocked ear. Thank you so much for improving the quality of my life. My family and friends have noticed a huge difference and I am no longer debilitated. I am so happy with the fantastic service I received here- I can't recommend them enough.read more

No words to describe how incredible The team are here. After a quick consultation my ear problem was sorted out in no less than 5 mins. Instant relief and I walked out with a huge smile on my face. If I could give them 10 stars it still wouldn’t be enough :)read more

After experiencing difficulties with hearing, I had micro-suction on both ears. The initial assessment and treatment were handled extremely professionally by the team and I was kept informed about the whole process throughout the work. I would definitely recommend this practice to those seeking similar help.read more

I highly recommend the services of The Nottingham Hearing Practice to anyone suffering with ear wax. I was quite distraught and the wonderful team put me at my ease, recommended pre-treatment with the best softening solution I've ever encountered (Earol Olive Oil Spray) and extracted the offending wax quickly and easily. Miracle workers!read more

My GP practice has stopped carrying out ear wax removal, a procedure I have needed every 1 to 2 years since the 1980's, leaving me with a problem. I was recently in Beeston and I spotted that The Nottingham Hearing Practice did the procedure by micro suction. I did some research, liked what I saw and made an appointment. I am so glad I did, they did an amazing job of removing my ear wax, using irrigation and micro suction, showing me via a camera what the inside of my ears looked like before and after. I am delighted I now have a solution to this recurring issue and I cannot recommend them enough.read more

After putting off getting my hearing tested, I visited Jo at the Hearing Practice. The service I received was exceptional, nothing was a problem while I spent 2 months trying 3 different manufacturers hearing aids. Jo, whilst leading with her professional expertise, was prepared to listen to my thoughts and opinions, resulting in my being very happy with the outcome. I suspect there may be cheaper places to go to, but I doubt the level of service will come close.read more

: After having a very disappointing and frustrating experience with the purchase of my last hearing aids, I thank my lucky stars I found the Nottingham Hearing Centre in Beeston and Alan Jackson where customer care and attention to detail is at the core of their business. Alan was a breath of fresh air after my corporate experience. Independent, approachable, focusing on my specific needs and supplying a product that has exceeded my expectations. This has been a very professional and efficient company in all my dealings with them. Brian Fitzwaterread more

I trialled 3 types of hearing aids and chose the Oticon Opn's. They have made a huge impact on my life as I am now able to use the telephone independently and the Bluetooth capabilities are ace. I am able to stream to my mobile and no one knows I'm listening to music. I can also stream my telephone calls, which is funny to see other people's reactions until I explain to them, I'm not just talking to myself! I'd highly recommend to visit this practice, for the personal approach from the Audiologists, down to the technology they are able to offer. I'm 28 years old and definitely proud to wear my hearing aids.read more

It has taken me a couple of years to get the courage to do something about wax build up as I hate anything in my ears. Out of sheer deafness I took the plunge. The whole experience of using the hearing practice was fantastic. Easy to book and friendly staff. Alan did an amazing job of my ear and i can’t beleive how much I can hear now. Alan was very kind, caring and gentle and the wax was removed in around 15 minutes with no discomfort. I would recommend and would happily return if it builds up again. £55 I felt was a very reasonable price. Thank you so much.read more

I had been having problems with my hearing due to excessive wax, my Doctor had "fobbed me off" and I was nearly deaf in my left ear! I found this lovely practice online and decided to pop in and make an appointment. Mrs Herrod was able to see me straight away and was able to remove a large amount of wax from both ears. The treatment was painless, just a slight tickling sensation, she was very polite and professional. I was able to see on the monitor the "before and after" in both ears, wow, what an improvement! I would highly recommend this practice to anyone having problems with earwax.read more

Fantastic experience at the Nottingham Hearing Practice. I had suction and irrigation to both ears to clear them of a build up of wax. Jo managed to fit me in on the morning I called and did a brilliant job clearing my ears. She took time to explain the procedure at each stage and was very reassuring. I will definitely use the service again, can't rate them high enough!read more

I woke up completely unable to hear out of my right ear and my left ear being mostly blocked as well so enquired online before the practice opened. By 9am I'd been booked in for the same day around my work commitments (even after I had to change the booking once because of a meeting change) and by 2pm I had both ears completely sorted and I could hear more clearly than I have done in years. Can't recommend them enough!read more

J0 had been looking after me for three years when I thought that I had lost her. I was so pleased to find her again in Beeston. Not only her, but Alan as well, who had fitted me up with hearing aids in the first place. They are both such caring and helpful people, who work in a very pleasant environment. Since finding them, Jo has removed wax from my ear by suction-- an efficient and painless process -- and given me a full hearing test, both done with care and consideration. I would recommend them to anyone.read more

Having had my appointment at their Beeton branch, I’ve just been kindly treated to the absolute height of reassurance and clinical professionalism, and like other reviews I’ve read, I cannot recommend ‘The Nottingham Hearing Practice’ highly enough! Frankly, if I could, I’d give it far more than the five stars allowed!! Thank you TNHP!read more

This week I was in a pretty desperate state with severe pain and tinnitus from a blocked ear and having been unable to sleep the night before, I was desperately marching around central avenue in west Bridgford to see if any of the opticians/hearing centres could help me or point me in the direction of someone who could! By some absolute miracle Jo was in the same shop, overheard my pleading with the staff and offered to help me out on a Saturday afternoon as she was going in to the shop anyway.... The process was quick, clearly explained, professional and comfortable and I cannot thank her enough for helping me out at such short notice. Would go back in a heart beat if the same happened again!read more

I can't recommend this practice highly enough. They made to feel at ease from the moment I walked in the door and explained everything really clearly. Jo resolved my pain in one ear and cleared out both ears quickly and effectively. Really pleased I can hear properly again. Well worth the money to have this done. Thank you Jo.read more

I visited the practise after failing a hearing test for a new job. Id heard about a new way of having your ears cleared out through suction instead of water irrigation. I spoke with Jo on the phone and she was extremely friendly and talked to me about the process. They booked me in really quickly and the whole process on the day was slick and Jo and Alan were great. They also conducted a hearing test with me and gave me some really useful insights off the back of the results. I would strongly recommend this clinic and the team here to anyone.read more

My partner had been struggling with his hearing for the last few years and decided to get his hearing tested. The team at Nottingham Hearing Practice were very professional throughout the whole process and he now has a set of digital hearing aids fitted. He is over the moon with his replenished hearing and the TV is now back to an acceptable volume for the rest of the family. He can't speak highly enough of the service he received from Jo and Alan.read more

As an audiologist myself I cannot recommend Alan Jackson and Jo Herrod highly enough. Their in-depth knowledge, and attention to detail sets them above the more impersonal service offered by the chain stores. If you are in the Nottingham area, I wouldn't consider going anywhere else!read more

I went to my GP with a problem of build up of wax in my right ear. Due to being 80% deaf in my left ear this was causing so many difficulties. My GP couldn’t have been more unhelpful, such a shame as I think the NHS are great in so many ways (but not all) After being told to go home and search google for ear wax removal I came across The Nottingham Hearing Practice in Beeston, the lady audiologist was great she explained everything and put me at ease. The relief when the wax was removed from my good ear can not be put into words. I was so impressed with this company’s approach and customer service that under my own volition, I have booked for a hearing aid test for my deaf ear. Would I recommend this practice and the staff that work there? Yes I would. Carl Whiteread more

Once again, I received fantastic service when I visited The Nottingham Hearing Practice for wax removal. Jess the receptionist was great when I rang to book the appointment and Jo the audiologist took her time when we spoke in person about the problem I was having and carefully removed the wax at a steady pace so I wasn't in pain or discomfort. I couldn't recommend this practice more and will always come here for future services! Thank you.read more

I rang on Thursday to enquire about ear wax removal for a completely blocked ear. I needed an urgent appointment, ideally on a Saturday when I wasn't at work. The fantastic receptionist rang me back and got everything sorted. The service I then received in the practice was brilliant - lovely clean clinic, reassuring, quick and easy - ear completely unblocked and I can finally hear properly. I'll be back again when it no doubt reoccurs. Comfortable and professional serviceread more
