Hearing Tests and Hearing Aids
Technology
We have tech to suit everyone, within all budgets
Our sister company, Southern Audiology Solutions, works closely with leading manufacturers such as Phonak, Oticon, and Starkey
to bring you the very latest in hearing aid designs and technology. With such a wide selection, there’s truly something for everyone — from discreet in-the-ear options to advanced models you can control from an app on your phone, and even specially designed children’s hearing aids.
Whether you need a hearing aid to match your busy lifestyle or simply want to hear your loved ones more clearly, our Audiologists and Hearing Aid Dispensers
are trained to help you find the right solution.
Today’s hearing aids are sleek, comfortable, and powerful— offering clear, rich sound without compromising on style. Many are now rechargeable too, giving you freedom and convenience whenever you need it most. Available in a range of colours and suitable for both adults and children, they make enjoying everyday life so much easier.
What to expect in an appointment
Appointments usually take around 60 minutes or more, giving us plenty of time to focus entirely on you. A friendly, NHS-trained Audiologist will explain the process step by step, so if you’re nervous or unsure, rest assured you’re in safe hands.
Accessories to support your hearing aids
We also stock a range of accessories in our clinics, including:
Protective carry cases with firm shells
Olive oil spray to keep ears clear of wax for a comfortable fit
Battery packs in different sizes
Lubricant tubes to make fitting easier
At The Private Ear Clinic and Southern Audiology Solutions, we believe that choosing a hearing aid is just the beginning — great aftercare is what makes the real difference. That’s why we offer:
On going follow up care (usually every 6 months)
Battery supplies (often included for the first year)
Comprehensive warranty options
And of course, a friendly smile every time you visit
There are so many reasons to choose our family-run business. From free hearing tests to our excellent aftercare, we do everything we can to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on what really matters — your hearing health.
We even offer 0% payment plans, giving you peace of mind that finances won’t get in the way of the care you need.
Hearing loss can feel overwhelming, but you’re not alone. Our empathetic and supportive team will guide you seamlessly through every step, making sure you always feel listened to and looked after.

CANNOT FAULT THE CARE AND ATTENTION
"Cannot fault the care and attention given by the audiologist/ microsuction practitioner Emma Smith, (at their Bournemouth clinic on Mondays) whose attention to detail, understanding and friendly nature made for relaxed appointments each visit. Everything was clearly explained and at no time did I feel pressurized to purchase new hearing aids from them following an initial hearing test appointment.
However I did, their prices were very competitive to high street outlets, but it was the attention to giving optimal hearing that swung it. I had several visits 1) ears cleaned, (this was an extra charge) & having read their literature decided on a pair to buy, I was given a sample to wear for 2 weeks 2) adjustments to sound levels as required 3) reassessment of sample aids levels and readjustment to suit my lifestyle, inner ear moulds made for new aids 4) the purchased pair given & adjusted to required volume levels 4) follow up of new hearing aids usability.
Superb service. I have no hesitation recommending this company."
