Today I visited the Ear Nose and Throat Department at The Freeman Hospital.
Appointment was for 10.45 am. Managed to get a car parking space at 10 10am.
The E.N.T. outpatients was on the second floor. Arrived in time to get a cup of Coffee,staff at the registration desk really efficient.
My name was called out at 10.30am,which was excellent as the appointment was for 10.45am.Greeted by a friendly Audiologist who explained the procedure. Sat in the sound proof box listening to the different noises and pressing the button when I heard a sound.
Once this was completed she then produced a chart and explaiined the changes in my hearing from the last visit.Slight deterioration.
Impressions were then taken of my ear for my new hearing aid. The one I have at present is about 5 years old.
I will get an appointment in no more than 12 weeks to have my new Hearing Aids fitted.
I am going to have another one for the left ear this time.As well as a replacement for the Right Hearing aid.
As far as I am concerned today my treatment as a N.H.S patient was excellent.
Hope that you are feeling ok!
