Ear care that comes to your door.
A home appointment offers a practical alternative to travelling across Worthing for ear wax removal.
It can be especially helpful if mobility or transport makes visiting a clinic difficult, although anyone who prefers a home appointment is welcome to enquire.
No journey required
Whether you're in Worthing town centre, Broadwater or Goring, Tim brings suitable ear care equipment directly to you.
A proper examination
Every appointment begins with checking the condition of your ears, rather than assuming wax is the cause of your symptoms.
Care from an audiologist
You'll be seen by Tim Davies, a qualified audiologist who can also advise if hearing difficulties remain after wax has been addressed.
First, let's see what's happening.
A feeling of blocked ears doesn't always mean ear wax is responsible.
Tim begins by asking about your symptoms and relevant ear health history, followed by an examination of both ears.
If wax is present and removal is appropriate, he will explain the most suitable method and proceed with your consent.
Where possible, your ears are checked again afterwards, and you'll receive appropriate aftercare advice.
Ear examination
Tim examines the ear canals and visible eardrums, using otoscopy or video otoscopy where appropriate.
Suitable wax removal
Microsuction, irrigation or manual removal may be used, depending on the wax and your ear health.
Final checks and advice
Tim explains the outcome, checks the ears where possible and discusses any further care that may be required.
The right method for your ears.
Ear wax removal isn't a one-method treatment. The condition of your ears, your medical history and the consistency of the wax all influence the approach.
Tim may use microsuction to remove wax under direct visual guidance, irrigation with controlled body-temperature water or careful manual removal with specialist instruments.
Not every method is suitable for every person. Tim checks suitability and explains relevant risks before treatment.
“I had Tim come out today my home. Using his camera, he showed me that my left ear was almost covered in wax. Using suction he removed it promptly and painlessly. Would recommend his services for professionalism and convenience.”

Firm or dry wax can sometimes be more difficult to remove. Where appropriate, using wax-softening drops beforehand may make treatment easier.
Olive-oil drops or another suitable product may be recommended for several days before your visit.
The most appropriate advice depends on your ear health history, so you're welcome to ask Tim before using anything.
Ask about preparing your ears →Things worth knowing
If you've previously had ear surgery, a perforated eardrum, grommets, ear discharge or other ear problems, seek appropriate advice before using drops.
Avoid putting cotton buds, ear candles or other objects into the ear canal. These may make matters worse or cause injury.

Can I have both ears treated in one appointment?
Yes. Where treatment is suitable, the standard £90 home visit fee includes wax removal from one or both ears.
Will my hearing return to normal after wax removal?
If wax is causing a temporary reduction in hearing, removing it may improve hearing clarity.
However, hearing difficulties can have other causes. If hearing remains reduced, Tim can discuss whether a hearing assessment is appropriate.
Is ear wax removal uncomfortable?
Many people tolerate the procedures well, although discomfort, noise, irritation or temporary dizziness can occur. Less commonly, other complications are possible.
Tim explains the relevant risks and checks suitability before proceeding.
What happens if the wax cannot be removed?
Sometimes wax is too firm or positioned in a way that makes complete removal unsuitable during the first appointment.
Tim will explain the outcome and advise whether further softening, follow-up treatment or referral is appropriate. Any applicable follow-up fee will be explained.
