A NEW Poole-based business is making it easier for residents across the region to hear more clearly.

Coastal Clarity is offering a private home visit service to deliver ear wax removal, ear health and advice.

Owner Catriona Bryant is a clinical scientist in audiology with more than 19 years of NHS experience and launched the company this month.

Catriona said: “Our patients have been appreciative of the home visit service. We’re more relaxed in our own homes, so it’s been a real positive. I can also spend longer with the patient, whereas you might feel rushed at an appointment in clinic and have hassle of getting there.”

Coastal Clarity provides patients with an ear consultation that will decide the best method of wax removal for the individual.

These include procedures such as microsuction (small vacuum that sucks wax from the ear) and electronic irrigation (gently circulates water into the ear).

Catriona added: “We always take the time to chat and go through any ear history with a consultation. This not only better informs the patient, but it helps us determine what procedure would be the most effective. Or in some cases it helps us understand if we can’t give a treatment for any reason.”

Home visits can also be arranged during and after work hours.
