METHOD 01Most common
Microsuction
A gentle, water-free suction that lifts wax straight out, viewed through surgical loupes. The technique used by ENT consultants, and most people's first choice.

What we do
Three methods. One that's right for you.
Every appointment starts with a thorough examination so we can pick the safest method, or combination of methods, for your ears. One price covers whatever's needed.
METHOD 02
Irrigation
A controlled stream of warm water that softens and flushes stubborn wax. Best when wax has already been pre-softened, or when microsuction isn't suitable.
METHOD 03
Manual removal
Precise removal using specialist instruments under direct vision. Useful for hard or fragmented wax that the other methods would struggle with.
Our promise
You see what we see.
Every appointment.
Our video otoscope feeds a monitor you can watch in real time. You'll see what we're seeing, before and after, so you know exactly what was there and exactly what's been removed. No mystery, no guesswork.

Common questions
Before you book.
If your question isn't here, give us a ring. It's a small team and we tend to answer the phone ourselves.
No. Microsuction is dry and the suction is gentle. Most patients say the noise is the only odd part. We stop the moment you're uncomfortable.
