I had a free ear health check last month, at Boots Monks cross in York. The female Audiologist said that both of my ear were clear of wax, which was a surprise, as I have hearing aids in both ears and it was around a year since my last ‘de-wax’. My hearing was beginning to get worse, which I now was concerned that was an health issue, as I’m now seventy years old. Three weeks later I had another check at the Hearing clinic in Thirsk, North Yorkshire. I was informed the my right ear was totally blocked with wax and the left ear was partially blocked at around sixty percent. Both ear were then de-waxed and my hearing restored. It’s pointless Boots offering a ‘Free’ ear health check, if their staff then lie about the actual health of the ear, for whatever reason.
