Hearing Care
Hearing plays an important role in how we connect with the world around us — from conversations with loved ones to the everyday sounds that bring life to our communities.
At Haine & Smith, we believe your hearing deserves the same expert attention as your eyesight. That’s why we provide professional hearing care services in all of our practices throughout Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, delivered with the personal, unhurried approach you know and trust.
Our Approach to Hearing Care
Backed by the trusted Haine & Smith team, established in 1975
Unhurried, personal appointments
Lifetime aftercare included with all hearing aids
Ongoing support from your local Haine & Smith team
Complimentary
Hearing Tests
Your hearing health matters at every stage of adult life.
We offer complimentary hearing assessments, designed for adult patients and carried out in a calm and private consulting room by our qualified Hearing Care Professional.
Hearing can change gradually, often without us noticing. A professional assessment provides a clear understanding of your hearing and, if further support is needed, straightforward advice tailored to your lifestyle and individual needs.
If treatment or hearing aids are recommended, we will explain your options clearly, with no expectation or pressure to make an immediate decision.
To arrange an appointment, please contact your local Haine & Smith practice or complete the enquiry form below and a member of our team will be in touch.
Hearing assessments are available for patients aged 18 and over
Ear Wax Removal (Microsuction)
Blocked ears? Loss of clarity? You may be experiencing a build-up of wax.
We offer professional microsuction ear wax removal – a gentle and effective method recommended by hearing care professionals. Unlike syringing, microsuction uses a fine suction tool and does not involve water.
