Book an AppointmentComplimentary hearing assessments
Hearing loss can sometimes creep up on us so gradually that we don’t even notice the small changes from day to day. That’s why it’s important to have regular hearing checks, just like you would with your eyes. At Kirkham Optical & Hearing, we’re here to make that easy for you by offering complimentary hearing checks, so you can stay on top of your hearing health with peace of mind.
What to expect at your appointment:
Your appointment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes and includes:
- A chat about your hearing history and any concerns
- An examination of your ears using a small camera (otoscope)
- A full hearing test, including tone and speech checks
- A clear explanation of your results
- A demonstration of hearing solutions (if needed)

Professional, gentle wax removal
Earwax naturally protects your ears by trapping dust and debris, but when it builds up excessively, it can lead to discomfort, hearing loss, or even infection. At Kirkham Optical & Hearing, we offer safe and effective micro-suction earwax removal, carried out by our experienced audiologist.
Our micro-suction process is a painless, water-free method that uses a low-pressure suction probe to remove earwax. The procedure usually takes just 15 to 30 minutes, and most people experience immediate relief.

Hearing aids & lifetime aftercare
Modern hearing aids are discreet, stylish, and packed with technology to make life easier. Whether you want to reconnect with conversation, enjoy music again, or stream calls directly to your ears, we have options to suit your lifestyle.
What we have to offer:
- Discreet, comfortable styles that are barely visible
- Rechargeable batteries, with no fiddly changes
- Bluetooth streaming for calls, TV, and music
- In-practice demonstrations so you can hear the difference for yourself
- Exclusive access to world-leading Beltone hearing aids
Ongoing care that makes all the difference
When it comes to hearing aids, aftercare is just as important as the device itself. Unlike glasses, hearing aids require fine-tuning, support, and expert guidance to ensure you're hearing at your best every day. That's why we don’t just fit your hearing aids and send you on your way.
By choosing a hearing aid through Kirkham Optical & Hearing, you benefit from comprehensive, ongoing aftercare for the full lifetime of your hearing aids, and it’s completely free. From regular check-ups and adjustments to advice and support whenever you need it, we're with you every step of the way.
For added peace of mind, your hearing aids are also covered by up to 5 years' warranty, so you can feel confident in your investment.
We’re here to help you get the very best out of your hearing - not just today, but for years to come.
