Excellent with young children
Dawn was very patient with my son who was initially agitated with having a hearing test. She explained tips and suggestions for us to try at home which led to a successful test and diagnosis at a follow up visit. We have been able to take the report she produced to an ENT consultant who is able to treat with no further tests needed which has given us clarity and helped speed up the treatment process. Would highly recommend.

Bev was very easy to talk to, reassuring and knowledgeable in helping me in my early days of tinnitus. Her advise and information sent have been very helpful. Highly recommended.

Visited the Edinburgh Audiology dept for treatment for continual dizziness and Dawn completed the epley manoeuvre. Taking only a few minutes at the clinic, within 2 days I was back to may normal self and no more dizziness. A great relief after weeks of constant and unpleasant dizziness. Highly recommend

I contacted Bev specifically around misophonia. This is not something that many people specialise in but Bev is the real expert. The sessions, guidance, advice, follow ups and documentation are extremely helpful and I am happy to say I cope a lot better now with the support of Bev.

I have been suffering from severe tinnitus since an ear infection and the Scottish NHS have been no use. I am very happy to give an excellent review for EAR, everything was explained clearly and made sense, and the suggested treatment approach has definitely helped. Highly recommended.

Dawn was so patient with my daughter. She eased her anxieties and went above and beyond to test her hearing to ensure we were able to get a clearer picture of what was going on after years of being passed from pillar to post in the NHS. It was extremely helpful speaking to Dawn who is highly knowledgeable and we found the whole experience extremely informative and reassuring. My only regret is that we did not do it sooner.

After a traumatic time of illness which included a symptom of pulsatile tinnitus I was referred to EAR by my ENT consultant. The service I received from Bev was absolutely outstanding and I can’t thank her enough. She saved my sanity. She was so professional, compassionate, understanding and patient with me as I was finding it difficult getting used to wearing hearing aids/finding the most suitable ones for me along with trying to deal with ongoing illness issues. Bev went that extra mile to help me with my hearing aids out with her clinic times and I am so grateful to her for doing this for me.

I would 100% recommend EAR, absolute excellence service from them. So professional but also so compassionate and caring towards the individuals needs.

Thank you Bev for all you have done for me.🥰

The Edinburgh Audiologist Clinic made all the difference these past few months in my experience with dizziness. The advice Dawn gave me down the phone I could honestly say, made all the difference between a month of looping anxiety and feeling like there was hope. The appointment itself was relaxing and informative, Dawn had plenty time for me which I was so grateful for being a chronic worrier! I knew from the first conversation that this was a person and a clinic, that cared about the patient over the profit, and I will be recommending this service to anyone in future!

Very happy to post a positive Edinburgh Audiology Rehab review. I worked with Bev from EAR in 2021 and found her to be very professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Edinburgh Audiology Rehab

Excellent and professional service from Dawn, who was funny and kind to my son while sorting his ears out. She also went above and beyond to put our minds at rest about my sons hearing. Wouldn’t hesitate in recommending and we will be back

Dawn was extremely competent in handling my difficult BPPV ( vertigo) issue. I had been trying to find a suitable doctor to undertake the procedure for months. Dawn explained every procedure clearly and had total compassion and understanding. She was calm and confident throughout. The BPPV treatment was a total success. Thank you Dawn.

Highly recommend!
I got in touch about my little boy and heard back really quickly, even getting a cancellation appointment just a couple of days after initial contact. Practical and kind advice as well as the test. Highly recommend.

Having rather foolishly managing to lose my hearing aid due to it getting caught up in my mask and being catapulted into a load of bushes. I was desperate to get another one but being on a tight budget I had to source a used one online from eBay . I asked Dawn if she could help me out and reprogram it . Sadly it was not working at first but after some real expertise Dawn managed to get the new one working perfectly . Not only that she said that if in future I needed too purchase a used hearing aid, to consult with her first as she could advice me as to which types would be more suitable.
Over the years I have had dealings with a few Audiologist’s and none of them were that willing to touch used Hearing Aids. As we all know the cost of Hearing aids in particular at these difficult times are hard for some people Recycling of good quality Hearing aids is not considered by people often enough . Dawn is very understanding and does not operate hard sell . However if you want to buy new she can offer great prices from leading suppliers !00% recommend

Huge Thanks to all the Team..
It’s a terrible feeling when you feel you have not done the best for your children. My daughter has had blocked ears for months, we quickly took her to the GP who in turn referred us to the Ear Nose and Throat but warned us that although she would stress how urgently we need to be seen that it still may be quite a wait as that department was stretched.. We got an appointment at the E N T after over 3 months.. The last thing I want to do is complain about the NHS as I am a huge fan, but on this occasion it was far from good.. After the quickest of assessments, we were told to come back in 4 months.. My Whole family were shocked as they are all aware how difficult a time my daughter has had in school struggling to hear her teachers.. Thankfully my big sister immediately called The Edinburgh Audiology Rehab and was given an appointment. The level of care and professionalism that we have received has been amazing.. My Daughters hearing is now “ super human “ lol. She can now hear all her teachers and friends and we can take subtitles of any tv program we watch.. I cannot express my gratitude enough to the whole team at Edinburgh Audiology Rehab.. Huge, huge thanks..

Our son was suffering from earache and loss of hearing due to wax build up. We contacted Edinburgh Audiology Rehab and they called right back right. The price was very reasonable especially considering it was a home visit. Our son received excellent care and attention from Dawn, who was extremely professional and competent. The appointment took less than 10 minutes and the issue is now completely resolved.

I would highly recommend Edinburgh Audiology Rehab. My partner was miserable due to blockage of ear wax in both ears. Due to covid GPS couldn’t syringe his ears. Dawn was amazing seen us the same day, very professional, kind and put him at ease. Would definitely recommend to anyone that need this service.

I would highly recommend Edinburgh Audiology Rehab. My mum was almost completely deaf caused by a blockage of ear wax. Due to covid, the GP couldn’t syringe her ears and she was miserable. I contacted EAR and Dawn immediately got back in touch and very quickly arranged a home visit. She was so kind and professional and completely restored mum’s hearing and also came back for a follow up. Really excellent service.

Very efficient, friendly and professional service, highly recommended.
— Dean Mc (June 2020)

Visited EAR with some trepidation but was immediately put at my ease. The professional expertise of both Bev and Dawn gave me the confidence to proceed with hearing aids. What a difference all round! What impressed me most was the fact that the well-being of the client is at the centre of the discussion, not the desire to sell a piece of equipment. Any questions were answered out of their experience and I have felt able to enter small groups now with the confidence that I can hear the general conversation. Regular contact by email after initial fitting also contributed to a feeling of personal treatment.

I had sudden changes to my hearing and became overly sensitive to background sounds. When I learnt it would be a long wait on the NHS to begin finding out why, I chose to visit Edinburgh Audiology Rehab.
Dawn has such a friendly and reassuring manner which puts you at ease. A very caring knowledgeable professional focusing on the patient’s needs. Wasn’t the news I’d like to have received but Dawn was very supportive by identifying what was needed to enable me to deal positively with the changes to my hearing.

I recently attended the ‘Ear Edinburgh Audiology Rehab clinic’, I was quite edgy about the whole process prior to my appointment! Without delay, I was taken in and made to feel very relaxed and welcome, by a very friendly and professional audiology team.

After my procedure, the team patiently went through the test report and explained everything clearly in plain English, explaining any big words/medical terms thoroughly and the cause of the problems that had been troubling my hearing/ear issues etc. They also confirmed what could be done to alleviate these issues.

What a great team, an excellent service, solutions, and options for all hearing needs at Ear Edinburgh Audiology Rehab. 100% recommend.

Keep up the good work, thank you once again!

My mum’s energy levels have been severely diminished by Labyrinthitis relapses over several years. At some point she started to experience BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) which was identified by a GP, however the medication prescribed was ineffective. By chance I received a flyer from Edinburgh Audiology Rehab and I contacted Dawn to discuss how she could help. Dawn systematically assessed my mum’s condition and agreed with the GP’s diagnosis, and recommended the corrective epley manoeuvre with follow-up home procedures. Dawn’s follow-on care was very attentive, including checks between consultations, on-going re-assessment of her improvement and a rehab plan. Mum’s quality of life is vastly improved, and the comprehensive approach to treatment met her needs. We greatly appreciate Dawn’s help and would highly recommend her.
