Is It Time To Make a Booking?

• Do you have difficulty understanding speech with noise around?People with normal hearing find it challenging to hear in background noise. But having a hearing loss makes it almost impossible – especially inside buildings with poor acoustics and high levels of background noise.
• Do you have trouble hearing high pitched voices, such as females and younger children?Hearing loss within this specific frequency range is common. As the years progress, you are more likely to experience hearing loss in the higher frequencies.
• Do you often ask people to repeat themselves?People presenting with hearing issues often comment that although they can hear speech, they cannot understand exactly what is being said. They may pick up part of the word, but not the full word.
• Do you find people sometimes appear to be mumbling, particularly teenagers?This is more common in people with high frequency hearing loss, which makes words containing letters such as “f”, “ph”, “th”,“s” and “t” tricky to understand.
• Do you have a ringing noise in your ears or head?This is known as tinnitus, most often caused by prolonged exposure to loud sounds. Hearing technology can relieve the effects of tinnitus.
• Do you have difficulty following conversations involving more than 2 people?This isn’t always a sign of hearing loss, but if you struggle to understand in group settings, you may have a hearing issue.
