Hearing Care
Hearing tests in Stroud
Do you find yourself finding it more difficult to hear conversations with friends and family? Or needing to turn up the volume on the television? Perhaps you may want to consider a free hearing check with our Audiologist.
Hearing loss affects every part of your life and we want to catch and correct it as quickly as possible.
Our hearing tests look for all different kinds of hearing loss and we can provide treatments and advanced hearing devices to help improve your hearing.
Wax removal
One common cause of hearing loss is a build-up of excessive ear wax in the ear canal. While ear wax plays a natural role in keeping your ears clean and protected, too much can cause blockages, leading to muffled hearing, discomfort, and even ear infections. Some people naturally overproduce wax, making regular removal essential for maintaining good hearing and overall ear health.
At our practice, we offer a safe, professional ear wax removal service using the latest microsuction technology. Microsuction is a quick, effective, and gentle procedure performed by an experienced audiologist. Unlike traditional syringing, microsuction is a pain-free, water-free method that uses a fine suction device to gently remove built-up wax, restoring your hearing clarity without discomfort or mess.
Hearing device aftercare
At our practice, we believe that exceptional hearing care goes beyond just fitting you with a hearing aid. That’s why we provide an extensive aftercare package with all new hearing devices, ensuring you continue to experience the best possible hearing for years to come. Your hearing can change over time, so regular check-ups allow us to monitor your hearing levels and adjust your device if necessary. During your aftercare appointment, we will retest your hearing, assess your hearing aid’s performance, and make any necessary fine-tuning adjustments to optimise clarity and comfort. If you experience any challenges, whether it’s difficulty with background noise, volume control, or general comfort, we’ll provide personalised advice and solutions tailored to your needs.
Adjusting to a hearing device can take time, and we are here to support you every step of the way. Our aftercare service gives you access to expert advice, ongoing check-ups, and any necessary adjustments to ensure your hearing aids continue to meet your needs.

Nick Thomas
Professional
I have been in audiology for over 5 years, having studied at Mary Mare Newbury under Oxford Brooks University. After qualifying I also trained in wax removal. The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting and helping clients with hearing difficulties. I find it an extremely satisfying profession, meeting clients in the comfort of their own home and helping them to improve their hearing.
Personal
I was born in Hannover, Germany as my father was in the forces, and I returned to the UK when I was 25. I have three children and two amazing grandchildren that take up a great deal of my spare time. When not with them, and weather permitting, there is nothing better than rolling my Harley Davidson out of the garage and hitting the open road. Top of my bucket list is to take my Harley to America’s Yellowstone national park.
