Hear4U Celebrates 9 Years in Leicester and 11 in Hinckley!
We are thrilled to share that Hear4U celebrates two significant milestones this week. On July 30th, we marked the 9th anniversary of our Leicester clinic.
Also known as ear vacuuming, microsuction earwax removal is the most commonly used manual technique that your doctor is likely to recommend.
The procedure is relatively simple: a slender nozzle is inserted gently into the ear so that the excess wax can be siphoned out using a miniature vacuum. The entire process lasts only a few moments (typically between 10 to 25 mins), and, once the wax is dislodged, our audiologist will remove it with either the vacuum itself, a small pair of forceps or a specialized tool known as the ‘Jobson Horne’. An alternative version, which uses an endoscope for increased accuracy, is also available from us at Hear4U.
The procedure, while effective, can have mild side effects such as the following:
Thankfully, much of these effects are only temporary and the process itself should be completely painless. Injury and infection are extremely rare, but you should always inform our specialists should you experience any further complications.
For all wax removal appointments we take a £40 non refundable deposit at the time of booking. This amount can vary if you choose to have a home visit earwax removal instead.
To avoid additional appointment charges we strongly advise putting olive oil generously into your ears for at least 3-5 days prior to your appointment. Please turn up to your appointment 5 minutes before in order to fill out your medical and consent form.
Failure to turn up on time for your appointment may result in us being unable to take your ear wax due to lack of time.

I attended the Hinckley Road branch of Hear4U on 5th August 2021 and found the whole experience stress free.
The surroundings are very relaxing, the reception was friendly (even the dog was friendly) and the audiologist was efficient, informative and very professional. Moreover, she succeeded in removing the wax from my right ear (which had been blocked for many weeks in spite of using all sorts of wax removing remedies) such that a minimum level of hearing has been restored where, previously, there was none. I shall certainly be attending again whenever the need arises.
Highly recommended.
