An ear health assessment is carried out as part of every appointment to ensure earwax removal is appropriate and necessary. The clinician will check for no sign of infection/ fungus/ abnormalities in the ear canal or with the Tympanic membrane (ear drum). Images will be taken, and if any concerns are raised, we can refer to a team of Audiologists if required. We have a minimum appointment fee of £35, even if no wax is removed, to cover this assessment and our staff member's time. 

For most checks, no specific preparation is required. However, for accurate results in some tests, such as blood glucose, you may be advised to fast for a few hours beforehand. We will provide you with guidance when booking.

Follow-up appointments are not always necessary, but you may be advised to book one if your results require further discussion or treatment. This is always optional and is likely to be an additional cost.

Finger-prick test results are immediate, while lab test results are typically available within 3–5 working days.

Yes, all lab tests specified in the Silver and Gold packages are included in the cost.

The Gold package allows clinically-indicated add-ons such as bowel cancer screening, PSA testing for prostate cancer, and cervical smear tests. If you have a specific concern, please mention this to us in advance so we can advise accordingly.

Any abnormal results will be explained to you, and we will provide advice on next steps. You may be referred to your GP, our private GP, or a specialist for further investigation or treatment if needed.

It depends on your individual health and concerns. Many people benefit from an annual check-up, while others may choose to book more or less frequently depending on their needs.

The Mini Health Check is a quick 20-minute overview of basic health markers, while the Well Person Health Check packages (Bronze, Silver, and Gold) offer more comprehensive assessments. All Well Person Health Assessments include a thorough lifestyle assessment and provide an opportunity for early detection of problems with blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol and silent markers of heart disease. The gold package provides additional opportunity to detect bowel, breast, prostate, cervical cancers.

Please contact us before booking if you are over 60 and need a yellow fever vaccine for your destination. The vaccine is not suitable for many people over 60 due to the increased risk on this age group. We may be able to provide a medical letter of exemption if you need evidence for your destination.

You can still benefit from the vaccine to reduce the risk of future episodes. Speak to our team for personalised advice.

The shingles vaccine offers long-term protection, though the exact duration varies by individual.

Shingles can cause severe pain and long-term complications. The vaccine reduces your risk of developing shingles and its associated symptoms.

Most people experience mild side effects, such as soreness at the injection site or a low-grade fever, which resolve quickly.

Flu vaccines are most effective when given in October or November, ahead of the peak flu season in December. However, if it is later than that, it is still worth having it as it will help protect you from around 14 days after vaccination.

The vaccine helps protect you from flu, reducing the risk of illness and preventing the spread of infection to others.

Ideally, book at least 6-8 weeks before your trip, as some vaccines require multiple doses over a period of time. If you're travelling sooner than that, please still book as it is better to have some protection than none, and some vaccine courses can be delivered to an accelerated schedule if appropriate.

Certain vaccines may not be suitable during pregnancy. Please let us know before your appointment so we can advise accordingly.

It depends on your destination and planned activities. Our travel health experts will advise on the recommended vaccines during your consultation. You can find out which vaccines are recommended for each country at: https://travelhealthpro.org.uk/countries

The duration of your appointment (e.g., up to 40 minutes) includes time for essential administrative tasks, such as reviewing your records, documenting your consultation, and completing any required paperwork (e.g., prescriptions or referrals). This means the conversation with the doctor may not take the entire booking length. We aim to ensure your time is used effectively while covering everything you need.

After ear wax removal it is common for a small amount of wax to remain if sticky or hard. As long as the nurse can see the Typmanic membrane (Eardrum) after the procedure this is deemed a completed service. However, if earwax removal isn’t completed on the first visit, follow-up appointments are discounted: 40% off the second visit, and the third visit is free if required.

Use ear drops such as olive oil, almond oil (not for nut allergies), or sodium bicarbonate for 3-5 days to soften the wax. Avoid drops if you suspect a perforated eardrum, dermatitis, or ear infection.

In most cases, earwax doesn’t need removal. However, if you experience hearing loss, blocked ears, or other symptoms, professional removal may help.

Irrigation uses warm water to flush out earwax, while microsuction uses a small suction device for precise removal. Microsuction is ideal for sensitive cases or hardened wax.

To cancel and reschedule, please contact us at least 24 hours in advance to avoid charges. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice may not be eligible for a refund. Appointments can be rescheduled free of charge up to 24 hours before the appointment. After this time, a charge may apply.
