Before you book
How to prepare and when not to wait
Where suitable, olive oil drops for 3–5 days before your appointment can help soften wax and make removal easier. Avoid cotton buds or putting objects into the ear canal, as these can push wax deeper or irritate the ear.
If your symptoms include sudden hearing loss, severe pain, discharge, dizziness, recent ear surgery or signs of infection, seek medical advice before booking wax removal.
Helpful for families
Booking for a parent or relative?
Many customers are adult children arranging care for an older parent. The page should make it obvious how to call, what the prices are, and that a family member or carer can usually be present if that helps.
