Currently, there is a huge unmet demand for ear and hearing healthcare services. Many GPs are no longer offering wax removal services, and increasingly patients are seeking private alternatives. As a result, the role of community pharmacies has been steadily increasing, with many pharmacies already expanding their care offering, using the Tympa system, to provide ear and hearing healthcare check-ups to their community.

Pharmacies are uniquely positioned in the heart of their local communities and as such are able to offer thousands of people in the UK suffering from ear and hearing health conditions faster and easier access to diagnosis and treatment services.

By working with the National Pharmacy Association, we hope that more pharmacies will see the opportunity to expand their care offering into ear and hearing healthcare, so we can help make ear and hearing healthcare accessible to all.
