Among the lowest prices in Nottingham
You only pay for what you need
Michele shows you inside your ears on a camera screen first, and you pay only for the ears that need treatment.
Microsuction and irrigation
Not every clinic offers both. Michele uses whichever suits your wax, or both, for the same price.
From Chilwell to Woodthorpe

Getting to the clinic from Chilwell
Take the ring road (A6514) round to Valley Road and Mansfield Road, or the A6130 through the city, which is shorter but usually slower. By bus allow about 50 minutes with a change, for example the indigo and then the 54 or 55 Grey Line.

What kind of wax do you have?
Wax comes in different forms, and the type you have affects how it is removed. These are all from Michele's camera.
Why it matters
Soft wax often comes out quickly with microsuction or irrigation. Hard, compacted wax needs softening with olive oil spray for three to five days beforehand, otherwise it can be too stubborn to clear in one go.
Colour on its own is not usually a worry. Michele shows you what she sees and explains it. How to prepare your ears

Questions from Chilwell patients
How do I get to the clinic from Chilwell?
The ring road is usually quickest: 8.2 miles, about 24 minutes. Park on the road outside, free of charge.
Can I get the bus from Chilwell?
Yes, with a change, for example the indigo then the 54 or 55 Grey Line. Allow about 50 minutes.
Why is my ear wax dark?
Older wax tends to be darker and harder. Colour on its own is not usually a concern, and Michele will show you what she sees.
Does hard wax need anything different?
It needs softening first. Use olive oil spray twice a day for three to five days before your appointment.
Is there a charge per method?
No. You pay per ear, £35 for one or £50 for both, however the wax is removed.
