Hearing Aid Clinics
Once you have an NHS hearing aid you can go back to the clinic without having to ask your Doctor to arrange another appointment.
Clinics for repairs; replacements; re-tubing; counselling and advice on problems about your NHS hearing aid are held in the Hearing Aid Department at St Mary’s Hospital every weekday
Phone 534304 or 534410 for clinic times or with any enquiries about your NHS aid.
Remember, your hearing may change and hearing aids do not last forever, (the tubing will need to be changed from time to time for example) so it is important to have both your hearing and your aid checked regularly.
