Bloom

Hearing Specialists

Do you struggle to follow a conversation when there is other noise in the background?
Do you think that people around you are mumbling?
Do you often ask people to repeat themselves or find yourself guessing what someone has said?
Do you find yourself thinking “I can hear it, but I can’t understand it”?

If this sounds like you or someone you know, perhaps you or they are living with a hearing loss. Hearing loss affects more than 60% of people over the age of 60.

Many of those people and/or their families are frustrated by the difficulties faced when conversation is unclear, but they needn’t be.

Here at the Hub Medical Centre, our visiting Hearing Specialist, Bloom Hearing is happy to discuss with you a range of solutions to address your very individual hearing needs.

Bloom visits The Hub on Tuesdays
