What do people ask before booking ear wax removal?
Everything people ask us before booking an ear wax appointment in Edinburgh, answered straight. If your question is not here, just call and ask.
At 115 Corstorphine Road, Edinburgh EH12 5PZ, inside Murrayfield Pharmacy. It is a two minute walk from the Murrayfield Stadium tram stop and sits on the main Corstorphine Road bus corridor, so it is easy to reach from Murrayfield, Roseburn, Corstorphine, Haymarket, Gorgie, Balgreen and the west side of the city centre.
Our prices are published on this page so you can see where you stand before you book: £55 for one ear, £65 for both. The otoscope examination of both ears is included, and there is nothing added on the day. The appointment fee applies whether or not wax is found, and you know that up front.
Microsuction uses a small medical suction device to lift wax out of the ear canal while your clinician watches directly through magnification. Nothing is flushed into the ear and the canal stays in view the whole time, which is why it is generally the preferred method, including for people who cannot have irrigation.
It should not be. Most people describe microsuction as odd rather than uncomfortable. The suction is noisy, a bit like a small vacuum beside your ear, and that surprises people more than any sensation. If anything feels sore at any point, say so and your clinician will stop.
Allow about twenty minutes. That covers examining both ears, removing the wax and a second look afterwards. Very heavy or hardened wax occasionally takes longer or needs a second visit.
It helps a lot. Olive oil drops two to three times a day for three to five days beforehand soften the wax and make removal quicker and more comfortable. If you have not managed it, still come. We will look and tell you honestly whether it is worth going ahead that day or softening first.
Most GP practices in Edinburgh no longer routinely offer ear wax removal, and NHS guidance has moved away from it being a standard GP service. Where it is still available, waits are often several weeks. That is why most people now use a private ear wax clinic. You do not need a referral and you book directly with us.
No. You do not need a referral or a letter. You book directly with us and we will see you.
Often yes. We hold appointments back each week for people who are fully blocked and uncomfortable, so if you are struggling, call 0131 337 5100 and we will do everything we can to see you quickly. Booking online takes under a minute and shows you exactly what is free.
Booking is better because it guarantees a trained clinician is free and the room is available. If you are passing, call ahead on 0131 337 5100 and we will tell you honestly whether we can fit you in that day.
The most common are muffled or reduced hearing, a blocked or full feeling, earache, itching, ringing or buzzing, and occasionally mild dizziness. Hearing aid wearers usually notice whistling first. Any of these are worth having looked at rather than guessed at, because some have causes other than wax. That is exactly why we examine before we treat.
It is a well established procedure and, carried out by a trained clinician who examines your ear first, a low risk one. As with any ear procedure there are small risks, including temporary dizziness or a short lived change in hearing, and your clinician will go through these and check suitability before starting.
Often yes. Microsuction is generally preferred where irrigation is not suitable, precisely because no water goes into the ear. Tell us about the perforation, any grommets or any previous ear surgery when you book, so your clinician can assess you properly and choose the right approach.
Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons people come to see us. Aids sit in the canal and encourage wax to build up and compact, which causes whistling, feedback and poor sound quality. We clear the wax and check your moulds at the same time.
Yes, and we always assess suitability first. A child needs to be able to sit still for the procedure, and very young children are often better seen by their GP or an ENT service. Bring them along and we will examine and advise honestly rather than press ahead if it is not right for them.
We tell you. Blocked feeling ears are not always wax, and if your canals are clear we will say so, explain what we can see and point you in the right direction, usually your GP, rather than treating something that is not there. The appointment fee is the same either way, because you are paying for the examination and the advice, and you know that before you book.
No. Cotton buds push wax deeper into the canal and compact it against the eardrum, and they are one of the most common reasons people end up fully blocked. Ears are largely self cleaning. If you get recurrent build up, softening drops and an occasional professional clean are the safer route.
Some people simply produce more wax, and narrow or hairy canals, hearing aids, earphones and cotton buds all make build up more likely. If it recurs, regular olive oil drops plus a check every six to twelve months usually keeps it under control. We will give you a realistic interval for your ears rather than a blanket answer.
There is on street parking close by on Corstorphine Road and the surrounding streets. If you are coming by public transport, we are beside the Murrayfield Stadium tram stop and on the main bus routes between Corstorphine and the city centre.
We are open Monday to Friday 9:00am to 5:30pm and Saturday 9:00am to 1:00pm, closed Sunday. Saturday morning suits anyone who cannot take time off in the week, and it fills fastest, so book ahead if a weekend slot works better for you.
Blocked ears? Let us get them cleared.
Book online in under a minute or call and speak to the pharmacy team today. No referral needed, and we will tell you honestly what we find.
