I took my husband to the aural care clinic as he needs his ears cleaned regularly. He is elderly and needs aids in both ears and is registered blind so this service is very important to both of us. Due to sickness, both in staff and ourselves, he wasn't able to see anyone for over five months and until then he had been having appointments every six weeks.
We went three weeks ago and the nurse was fabulous as usual but unfortunately couldn't clear one of his ears so she gave us another appointment two weeks later and told us to continue with the drops as per usual. We returned last week and still the wax couldn't be cleared. We now have to wait until the end of August for another appointment due to how busy the clinic is and unfortunately now one of his hearing aids isn't working so the next month is going to be extremely difficult.
