Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The NHS provides hearing tests and hearing aids, usually on free long-term loan, following a GP referral or in some areas a direct referral. Private clinics offer a wider choice of styles and technology, often with shorter waits, for a fee.
Many private hearing clinics offer free initial hearing checks, and NHS hearing tests are free following referral. Always confirm what is included before booking.
Audiologists are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Look for HCPC registration when choosing a clinic.
