Our hearing healthcare practice has earned an excellent reputation in Oxford and the surrounding areas for providing a wide range of digital hearing aids and also for our unique microsuction ear wax removal clinic.

We understand that hearing loss and tinnitus can interfere with your quality of life and we recognize that it is essential that you receive the care, attention and expertise to find the best solution to solve or manage your hearing impairment.

Our personalised hearing tests utilise state of the art equipment and result in a comprehensive and detailed report on our hearing and a full analysis of all your digital hearing instrument options.

The Microsuction Ear Wax Removal Clinic has specialised practitioners who can remove wax in a safe and gentle way. Even the most problematical ears can be helped and the procedure is essential if traditional syringing is not appropriate. In addition, we pioneered the ear wax management course for primary care nurses in the Oxfordshire area.

The Cotswold Engraver, Feb 2020

After a sudden blocked ear on holiday due to wax, Tripp Hearing were swift to reply to my email to book me in for microsuction as soon as I got home. Within 20 mins of being there my ears were brand new. No pain. A super professional and organised company. Can’t fault them

Paul Jones, Feb 2020

This place was a blessing in disguise. We went there due to a failed appointment elsewhere and greeted myself and my wife with a warm smile. Very understanding and put my wife as ease and gave great details on what would happen with the planned procedure. Thank you Fee tripp , well done.

Chris Kelly, Feb 2020

Extremely professional service. Explained every step of the procedure before commencing. Highly recommended.

Andy Everson, Jan 2020

Good afternoon, I am writing to thank you for your vigilance in noting the ulceration in my ear and asking me to check with my doctor. He referred me to the ENT and I was seen yesterday (I felt a bit worried as they had fitted me in so soon!) Anyway, the consultant (unfortunately I can’t remember his name as I was nervous!) explained it all to me and said it’s not dangerous. He is treating it with an antibiotic and steroid cream every 4 months and I may need an operation eventually if it worsens. He said that he was very pleased that you had picked it up, as it is the sort of thing that often gets missed. I am too, as it has probably saved me a lot of future aggravation. Kind regards .

M.Canning, April 2022

I just wanted to say thank you to Danielle and to Tara who both provided such gentle and efficient care of me yesterday (and at the previous week's appointment). I really appreciate your commitment. My hearing and general wellbing have been transformed. Thank you.

E.Rawling, June 2022

A great welcome from reception. Then professionally managed the assessment and afterwards Hannah was excellent because she knew her stuff, was courteous, and put me at ease.

D.Smith, November 2022

Clearly very well run, employing very able audiologists offering a 5* service to clients. Sarah Anderson particularly good, very professional and thorough. I would recommend Tripp without hesitation.

A.Dixon, February 2023

I would like to pass on feedback of my experience since first having a hearing test with Hannah at your Wheatley branch in late 2022. I was immediately impressed by her professional approach, and sensed that your firm would take a real interest in trying to improve my everyday hearing. Having decided to investigate further it seemed that the Witney branch would be more convenient to reach, as I live just outside Kingston Bagpuize. My first appointment with Sarah, at the end of January, confirmed my earlier impression, which was so different from my experiences with another supplier of 2 earlier sets of hearing aids over he past few years. My new aids were duly ordered, fitted and tried out under her supervision. I felt able to consult her at any time, but did not need additional help. She took great care to ensure that the aids were as comfortable as possible, and has persuaded me to wear them full time, including during my many daily hours maintaining a large kitchen garden. By the time I attended for my end-of-trial appointment on 18th April I was quite convinced that my initial impressions had been confirmed, so that I was both happy to go ahead with the new aids and to commit to your monthly plan. My next appointment is already booked for July. My wife would also endorse my conclusions as she has benefited greatly from my improved hearing!

Meet the teamIndependent VS National

It’s important to think carefully about where you buy your hearing aids from as it’s not just a one-off transaction – regular aftercare and check-ups means that the relationship can go on for years. Tripp Hearing is an AIHHP (Association of Independent Hearing Healthcare Professionals) Centre of Excellence. AIHHP Centres of Excellence must meet strict criteria in terms of equipment and service levels. These criteria are under constant review so each centre represents the highest standards of “best practice” in the profession. More recently, Tripp Hearing was awarded ‘Oxfordshire’s Favourite for Health and Beauty’ in the 2016 & 2018 Living in Oxford awards.

A recent survey asked more than 400 Which? members about their hearing aid buying experiences with high street retailers including Boots Hearing Care, Amplifon, Specsavers Hearcare and Hidden Hearing. The survey asked hearing aid customers about the range of products on offer, hearing aid prices, customer service and facilities at the UK’s biggest hearing aid retailers.

AftercareAftercare

Normally, when you buy hearing aids you are also paying for all of your initial assessments, fitting fees and ongoing hearing tests and care, but we realise that paying for all of this is one go can sometimes be prohibitive. Also not all hearing aid users require the same level of aftercare and end up paying for something they do not use. So we have introduced HearPlan.

HearPlan is a membership programme that spreads the cost of your hearing care, gives preferential pricing on new technology if you choose to upgrade your hearing aids, as well as offers on accessories.

For a monthly subscription of £25.00 for 1 aid or £40.00 for 2, you will receive all of the care and support you need to improve your hearing and also get £200.00 of the cost of each hearing instrument. To find out more about the key benefits offered with HearPlan, click here. Alternatively you can choose not to take out a HearPlan membership and opt to ‘pay-as-you-go’ for future appointments.
