Hearing Aids
Hearing aids are small electronic devices that you wear in or behind your ear. They are programmed to make the sounds you have difficulty with louder allowing you to listen, communicate, and participate fully in daily activities. A hearing aid can help you hear more in both quiet and noisy situations.
They are primarily useful in improving the hearing and speech comprehension of people who have hearing loss, some hearing loss results from damage to the small sensory cells in the inner ear, called hair cells. This type of hearing loss is called a sensorineural hearing loss. The damage can occur as a result of disease, ageing, or injury from noise or certain medicines.
One in seven people in the world have some type of hearing loss, of these only about one in five people who would benefit from a hearing aid wears one.
Tinnitus
Tinnitus is the perception of noises in the head and/or ear which have no external source. It derives from the Latin word for ringing and those living with the condition may have to endure a ringing, buzzing, hissing, whistling or other noise. The sensation can be constant or intermittent and it can vary in volume.
The sound produced or perceived is not a disease or illness; it is a symptom generated within the auditory system and usually caused by an underlying condition. The noise may be in one or both ears, or it may feel like it is in the head. It is difficult to pinpoint its exact location. It may be low, medium or high pitched and can be heard as a single noise or as multiple components.
Earwax Microsuction
Private ear wax removal by microsuction is the cleanest, fastest and safest way to remove impacted earwax in blocked and waxy ears. The procedure takes 15 minutes and results are instant. Ear wax removal by microsuction involves the insertion of a microtip or Zoellner tube into the External Auditory Meatus (ear canal), along with a sterile plastic canula. Suction is then used and the compacted wax is pulled out of the ear canal.
At The Manchester Hearing Aid Clinic we only perform microsuction we do not recommend syringing. If syringing is done incorrectly it can lead to perforations, infections and damage to the eardrum. The chance of this happening while visualising the eardrum is very low during microsuction. Microsuction always removes deep, compacted or impacted wax. There is also little chance of causing ear infections. The chance of vertigo or dizziness with microsuction is also low and the procedure can be performed on a perforated ear.

Dr.Hassan Karim saw me not only the same day, but in about 3 hours from me reaching out to make an appointment. Sorted out my ears in minutes and I was on my way, able to hear properly again. Absolutely brilliant. And at a really reasonable price.
Can't fault it, fantastic, would recommend to anyone if you're having problems with your ears/hearing.

Highly recommend. I struggled with intermittent hearing loss for a few weeks which got worse so I couldn’t hear anything at all in one ear due to impacted ear wax. Same day appointment offered which cleared the problem. Don’t waste money trying different options .. Honestly, instant result! Thank you so much.

This is my third visit to Hassan and because I can't give 6 stars, I thought I'd just submit another 5-star review.
My most recent visit was booked less than 24 hours in advance for a Sunday. Hassan removed wax, gave me a hearing test, and consulted on further treatment options.
The convenience, care, and price all make this a fantastic business.
Thank you again, Hassan!

My earwax was quite hard and I had pain in the ear and couldn't hear well. Hassan was quite patient and offered a free additional session later to let the olive oil soften the wax. He was even willing to offer one more free session. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Both my ears were blocked with wax which apart from ruining my hearing is sensory hell for me (I'm Autistic).
The procedure was quick, painless and worked a treat. Hassan in polite, personable and professional.
The relief was huge. My hearing is fine again, like Hassan just turned the volume knob on my head up. I can hear where my enemies are whilst playing Battlefield again.
Five stars. Worth every penny.
