What's involved in a Full Hearing Assessment

Book online

General ear health check (including a video otoscopy)

Thorough hearing test to check your ability to hear various frequencies and speech in noise

We plot your results on an Audiogram and then offer advice and recommendations to help you hear better

General ear health check

We start the 75 minute appointment talking to you about your medical background and what hearing problems you may be experiencing. Then, complete a general ear health check on both ears, including a video otoscopy.

Hearing Test

We'll then conduct a thorough hearing test, checking your ability to hear sounds at various frequencies and to assess your understanding of speech in noise. Bringing a loved one with you can help with the test by having a familar voice in the room.

Results and recommendations

We'll plot your results on an audiogram and explain what they mean. There's plenty of time to answer any questions or concerns that you may have. We'll also offer some advice and recommendations, including a demo of latest digital hearing aids if appropriate.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an assessment cost?

At Boots Hearingcare, all our hearing tests and hearing health checks are completely free. Why not encourage a friend to come for a hearing test too?

How can I help a loved one with hearing loss?

Because hearing loss is so gradual, a person with a hearing loss might not even notice it. But it can be frustrating if a loved one seems to be struggling to hear – maybe they have the TV on very loudly, they ask you to repeat yourself a lot, or they have trouble talking to you on the phone.

How old do you have to be for a hearing test?

We only offer hearing tests for adults aged 19 and over.
