Thank you for making your patients hearing care a priority and choosing Lions Hearing Clinic – your trusted hearing provider in Western Australia and New South Wales.
GPs are crucial to detecting hearing loss, with people more likely to seek help from their GP than from a hearing clinic.

Do you have a patient who wears a hearing aid but no longer finds it effective?
Hearing aids help many people, but as hearing loss progresses, a cochlear implant can improve clarity and volume to better understand speech again.
