About this service

What this service involves

You will talk through your symptoms and any relevant health information, then your ears will be checked to see if wax build-up is likely. If removal is suitable, it will be carried out using an appropriate method for you. You will leave with clear advice on aftercare, what to expect, and what to do if symptoms continue.

Respectful and discreet

Appointments take place in a private room and you can ask questions at any point.

Medication and history check

We will ask about ear problems, previous treatment, and any medicines that could affect your ears.

Before your appointment

How to prepare for your ear wax removal.

Softening the wax

If advised by our pharmacy team, use medical-grade olive oil ear drops or spray for 3–5 days before your appointment to soften the wax.

  • Lie with the affected ear facing upwards.
  • Apply 2–3 drops.
  • Remain on your side for 5–10 minutes.
  • Wipe away any excess oil.

Always follow the product instructions and advice from your pharmacist.

  • A perforated eardrum or grommets
  • Previous ear surgery
  • An ear infection, pain, discharge or bleeding
  • Significant dizziness or vertigo

You may require an individual assessment or alternative treatment.

Please do not
