    Your appointment is private and unhurried. We’ll discuss your symptoms, review your medical history, examine your ears with specialist equipment, and carry out hearing or balance tests if needed. We then explain your diagnosis clearly and outline treatment options.

    Yes, after your consultation, you’ll receive a clear written summary of findings and recommendations. This can be shared with your GP or used to support insurance claims or referrals to other specialists.
