Hearing is one of our most vital senses it connects us to the world, our loved ones, and the environment around us. Despite its importance, hearing health is often overlooked until a problem becomes disruptive. Regular hearing tests can prevent complications and support your overall wellbeing.
In communities like Coventry and Leamington Spa, hearing assessments are increasingly prioritized to help residents maintain optimal health.

Using an otoscope, the clinician examines your ear canal and eardrum to rule out blockages like wax buildup or infections.
This test checks your ability to hear various tones across a spectrum of frequencies. You’ll wear headphones and press a button when you hear a sound.
You’ll listen to spoken words at different volumes and repeat them back to assess clarity and comprehension.
This test examines how well your eardrum moves, which can help detect fluid buildup or eustachian tube issues.
Your results are presented in an audiogram. If needed, your audiologist will recommend hearing aids, lifestyle changes, or further testing.
These assessments are simple yet powerful tools in maintaining lifelong hearing health.
