Good news for local residents struggling with blocked ears or hearing issues: Hear Aberystwyth is launching a full-time ear wax removal service starting July 11. Conveniently located in the heart of town, our trusted independent audiology clinic on Baker Street is here to help you hear clearly again.

This expansion marks an important step in Hear Aberystwyth’s mission to provide high-quality, community-centred hearing care throughout Ceredigion—while also creating meaningful employment opportunities in the local area.

“We’re deeply committed to supporting both our patients and our community,” says clinic founder and audiologist Nick Raine. “Launching a full-time wax removal service allows us to meet growing demand with greater convenience and care.”
