Audiology
Welcome to the Bristol Hearing & Balance Service. We provide
a fully modernised diagnostic and rehabilitation service for people
with hearing and balance disorders. This includes:
- Comprehensive hearing assessments and digital hearing aid
fittings for adults (aged 16+)
- Comprehensive diagnostic investigations and balance assessments
for adults and children
- Hearing and tinnitus therapy for adults
- Balance (vestibular) rehabilitation for adults and
children
- Maintenance and repair of hearing aids
NHS services in north and central Bristol merged in March 2013
and we are now proud to be one of the largest audiology
departments in the UK. Our main centres are based at St Michael's
Hospital and Southmead Hospital (Gate 36, Level 1,
Brunel building), where all the above services can be
found. We also have a number of satellite clinics that offer
hearing assessments, hearing aid fittings, hearing aid repairs and
hearing therapy.
We are also a local, regional and national training centre for
Audiologists, Associate Audiologists and Clinical Scientists and
have established links with ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat) and
Auditory Implant (eg Cochlear Implant and Bone anchored hearing
aid) services.
