Comprehensive Hearing Test

 Hearing Tests Across Suffolk

We provide professional hearing tests across Suffolk, supporting patients from Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, Long Melford, Stowmarket, and surrounding villages. As an independent, family-run hearing clinic, we understand the importance of accessible, local hearing care. Many of our patients prefer to be seen close to home rather than travelling to large chains, and we’re proud to offer trusted hearing tests throughout the Suffolk community.

 Whether you're based in Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, or one of the nearby villages, our family-run independent clinic offers accurate assessments, expert guidance, and a calm, friendly environment.

If you’re experiencing changes in your hearing-or simply want a routine check -our tests are designed to give you clear answers and personalised support.

A hearing test is a detailed assessment that measures how well you hear different tones, pitches, and speech sounds. Using clinical-grade audiometric equipment, we evaluate:

• Your hearing sensitivity
   
• Whether any hearing loss is present
   
• The type and degree of hearing loss
   
• Middle ear function
   
• Speech understanding
   

You’ll sit comfortably in a sound-treated environment while we guide you through each step.

Hearing loss often develops gradually. Many people don’t realise their hearing has changed until conversations become tiring or background noise becomes overwhelming.

A professional hearing test helps to:

• Detect early signs of hearing loss

• Understand communication difficulties

• Prevent further deterioration

• Improve quality of life

• Recommend hearing aids where beneficial

• Identify problems requiring ENT referral

Early detection makes a huge difference-especially if your hearing affects work, communication, or daily life.

You may benefit from a hearing test if you notice:

• Difficulty understanding conversations
   
• Frequently asking others to repeat themselves
   
• Turning up the TV or radio louder than before
   
• Ringing or buzzing in your ears
   
• Feeling blocked or full in one or both ears
   
• A family history of hearing loss
   
• Regular exposure to loud noise
   

If you’ve ticked even one of these, it’s worth getting checked.

After your test, we review your results together, including:

• Whether hearing loss is present
   
• The type (conductive, sensorineural or mixed)
   
• The degree (mild to profound)
   
• How this may affect everyday listening
   
• Whether hearing aids would help
   

If we identify anything requiring medical attention, we will refer you to your GP or ENT promptly.
