Independent & Impartial We recommend what's genuinely best for you — never tied to a single manufacturer or sales target. [Book Assessment](#book) What Happens During Testing ## Your Bridgend hearing test appointment 00 ### Consultation & history Your audiologist discusses concerns, lifestyle, medical background, and the situations where you struggle — shaping the whole assessment. 00 ### Visual ear exam We check ear canal health with an otoscope, spotting wax or physical issues that need addressing before testing. Wax found? We may recommend microsuction first. 00 ### Pure tone audiometry Wearing headphones, you press a button each time you hear a tone at varying pitches and volumes — mapping your full hearing range. 00 ### Speech & bone conduction We assess speech comprehension and run bone conduction to distinguish inner ear from middle ear issues. Then we explain everything in plain English. Most assessments take 45–60 minutes — you'll leave with complete clarity. [Book Your Test](#book) ![A patient seated in a sound-treated booth wearing over-ear audiometric headphones for a hearing test](/__l5e/assets-v1/7fbca5f9-e340-47cb-9b02-ed9413e37841/inside-the-booth.jpg) Inside the Clinic ## Calm, unhurried testing in a clinical environment Your assessment takes place at the Kenfig Hill clinic. We use calibrated audiometric equipment to measure your hearing across the full speech and frequency spectrum.

You'll see your audiogram on screen and leave knowing exactly where your hearing sits and what it means for daily life. **Good to know:** Your £40 hearing test fee is waived if you proceed with hearing aids.
