Hearing care for Swallownest, Aston & Aughton
If you’re in Swallownest, Aston, Aughton or the villages around them — Todwick, Ulley, Treeton and Beighton — we’re just up the road in Wickersley: genuinely independent hearing care, without the trip into Sheffield or a big-chain branch.
Free hearing assessments, hearing aids from all seven leading manufacturers and professional microsuction wax removal — unhurried appointments, honest advice and the same small team looking after you each time.
You’ve a few options within a short drive from Swallownest, Aston and Aughton. Here’s what makes us worth a look — and it isn’t just that we’re close.
We fit hearing aids from all seven leading manufacturers — Widex, Phonak, Signia, Starkey, Oticon, ReSound and Unitron.
We aren’t owned by a hearing-aid manufacturer or tied to one product range. That means our recommendation can start with your hearing, your ears, your lifestyle and your budget — and then we choose the technology that best fits those needs.
Some larger hearing-care providers work with selected manufacturers or restricted product ranges. We don’t.
You won’t be passed around a large team or sent through a call centre. Our clinical team is small — Lee, Simon, Emily and Jacob — so even when you don’t see the same clinician at every appointment, you’re being looked after by people who know the clinic, your hearing care and how we work.
Where possible, we’ll keep you with the clinician who knows you best, but you’ll always have access to the wider team when needed.
For many of our patients, that personal continuity is one of the reasons they’re happy to travel to Wickersley.
Our appointments are deliberately unhurried.
We’ll explain what we’ve found clearly and tell you what we genuinely think you need — including when the answer is nothing yet.
If your hearing is fine, we’ll tell you. If wax is causing the problem, we’ll deal with the wax. If hearing aids would help, we’ll explain the options without pushing you into making a decision.
We would rather you travelled home knowing exactly where you stand than leave having been sold something you didn’t need.
Your first hearing test is free and there’s no obligation to buy anything. You’ll get your results explained clearly on the day — not a sales pitch.
A hearing test is a single visit. Hearing aids are a relationship.
Getting them right takes several appointments — the assessment, the fitting, then fine-tuning as your brain adjusts — and after that they need reviewing, cleaning and servicing for years. The practice you choose isn’t somewhere you go once; it’s somewhere you’ll keep coming back to.
So it’s worth picking the practice that can fit any of the seven leading brands rather than a limited range, and a team that gets to know your ears so you’re not starting from scratch every visit — and when that happens to be just up the road in Wickersley, all the better. For a one-off wax removal, pick whoever’s closest. For hearing aids you’ll wear every day for the next five years, choose the people, not just the postcode.
We’re just up the road in Wickersley — only a few minutes from Swallownest, Aston and Aughton.
It’s only about 10 minutes by road — you’re practically neighbours. From Swallownest it’s the A618 up past Ulley, then the A631 for the last stretch into Wickersley.
You almost certainly know your own way across already — it’s a short, easy run whichever roads you take.
We look after patients from right across that side, including Aston, Aughton, Todwick, Ulley, Treeton and Beighton.
Unit 4, Hastings Court, Wickersley, Rotherham S66 1JY. Open in Google Maps.
There’s 3 hours of free parking at The Tanyard, under 50 ft from our door. Set your sat-nav to S66 1AA for the car park (our clinic address, S66 1JY, is just a few steps away).
The car park is right next to us, so it’s a very short walk in. If you have any access needs, let us know when you book and we’ll make sure everything’s ready for you.
Everything under one roof — so it’s one short visit, not several.
Mostly for one of two reasons: a genuinely independent choice of hearing aid rather than one brand or a restricted range, or being looked after by a small team who get to know you rather than a call centre. If neither of those matters to you, your nearest option may suit you just as well — and we’d say so.
No. You can book directly with us for a hearing test, wax removal or a hearing-aid consultation. If we ever find something that needs your GP or ENT, we’ll tell you clearly and point you the right way.
Yes — the assessment is free and there’s no obligation to buy anything afterwards. If your hearing is fine, we’ll tell you and send you home happy.
We can remove wax and give you advice whatever aids you wear. We can’t reprogram or replace NHS moulds — those stay with the NHS — but we’re happy to help with the rest and be straight with you about what we can and can’t do. See repairs & servicing.
Usually within a few days — often the same week. Call us on 01709 437250 and we’ll find you a time that works.
Free hearing test, honest advice and independent choice — just up the road in Wickersley.
