Ear

Wax impaction can be troublesome and can cause earache, blockage feeling and hearing loss. I offer wax removal using microsuction so I can get an illuminated and magnified view of your ear canal and ear drum to ensure all wax is removed in a safe manner.

Hearing loss is incredibly common and shouldn’t be ignored. There is a strong link between hearing loss and dementia. If you think your hearing is not what it should be get in contact for an assessment.

Causes of ear discharge can range from a simple infection to something much more serious. If you are suffering from ear discharge I will clean your ear so its free of discharge and perform a full ear examination to tell you what is the cause of the discharge and offer treatment for it.

If your hearing noises that nobody else can hear this is likely to be tinnitus. Many patients find this extremely distressing and it can interfere with their daily life. If you have tinnitus get assessed and see the range of options to help treat you and get back to a normal life.

Dizziness is often dealt with very badly by doctors because most simply don’t understand what causes it and therefore don’t know how to treat it. My philosophy is to put you at the centre of my consultation and work out what is affecting you and how it is affecting you. Only once that is done will I perform a focussed examination of your ears, nerves and brain to ascertain the cause and treatment.

Don’t suffer in silence. There are lots of treatable causes of ear pain but most importantly I like to get to the bottom of what is what is causing your pain and treat it. Ear pain can often be referred from other areas of the body. Book for assessment and examination now.
