About your appointment
Make sure to arrive promptly for your appointment, as audiology appointments do run on time. After checking in please take a seat in the Audiology waiting area, next to the X-ray, rather than the main waiting room in area C.
If you are coming to see us for a hearing assessment and excessive wax is present in your ears, it may delay your care. Please make an appointment with your GP at the earliest opportunity to have your ears checked. If wax removal is required your GP can arrange this within the community.
Patients for the vestibular clinic should not take vertigo medication or consume any alcohol for 48 hours before their appointment. Please also remove any eye makeup before attending the vestibular appointment.
Hearing aids
You can collect hearing aid batteries from the reception desk (Area C) or audiology booths during working hours without appointment.
If you need a repair, adjustment or you've lost your hearing aids, please book an appointment in advance as we cannot offer a walk-in service.
