Why Independence Matters
When a clinic is owned by a manufacturer or tied to a limited range of brands, the recommendation you receive may not be the best one for you. We are different.
Access to All Manufacturers
We are not contractually tied to any hearing aid brand. This means we can prescribe the device that is genuinely the best clinical fit for your hearing loss, lifestyle, and budget.
No Sales Targets
Our audiologists are clinicians, not salespeople. We do not work to sales targets or receive commission. Our only incentive is your hearing health.
Transparent Pricing
We offer clear, upfront pricing with no hidden costs. The price you are quoted includes the device, fitting, verification, and a comprehensive aftercare package.
Latest Technology
From rechargeable models and Bluetooth connectivity to invisible-in-canal devices, we have access to the full range of current hearing aid technology from every major manufacturer.
Every Manufacturer, One Clinic
We work with all leading hearing aid manufacturers, giving you access to the full range of technology and price points available.
As an independent clinic, we can offer all major hearing aid manufacturers, selecting the best solution for you, not what a chain is tied to. This means you receive a genuinely impartial recommendation based on your clinical needs.
Explore all hearing aid brands we offerFrom Assessment to Aftercare
Hearing aid fitting is not a single appointment, it is a structured clinical process. Here is how we ensure the best possible outcome.
Diagnostic Assessment
We begin with a comprehensive hearing evaluation to understand the precise nature and degree of your hearing loss. This forms the clinical foundation for any recommendation.
Lifestyle & Needs Discussion
We discuss your daily communication challenges, lifestyle, work environment, and personal goals. This ensures we recommend technology that fits your life, not just your audiogram.
Independent Recommendation
Based on your clinical results and personal needs, we recommend the most appropriate hearing aid from any manufacturer. We are not tied to any brand or quota.
Precision Fitting with Real Ear Measurement
Every hearing aid we fit is verified using Real Ear Measurement, a probe microphone placed in your ear canal to confirm the device is delivering exactly the right amplification at every frequency.
Structured Rehabilitation & Aftercare
We provide structured auditory rehabilitation to help your brain adapt, along with ongoing aftercare including adjustments, maintenance, and regular hearing re-assessments.
Real Ear Measurement on Every Fitting
Real Ear Measurement (REM) is the only way to objectively verify that a hearing aid is delivering the correct amplification for your individual ear canal. Without it, the fitting is essentially a guess.
Research consistently shows that hearing aids verified with REM perform significantly better than those fitted using manufacturer software alone. Despite this, many providers do not offer it. At Buckinghamshire Hearing, REM is standard on every single fitting.

Part of Our Auditory Rehabilitation Process
Hearing aid prescription and fitting forms a key step in our structured clinical pathway. Rather than treating each service in isolation, we integrate every aspect of your hearing care into a cohesive, evidence-based rehabilitation programme.
Your hearing aid fitting will be carried out by a fully qualified, HCPC-registered Senior Audiologist. We are regulated by the Health & Care Professions Council, the UK's independent regulator for health and care professionals.
Hearing Aid FAQs
How much do hearing aids cost?
Hearing aid prices vary depending on the level of technology. We offer devices across a range of price points and will always recommend the most appropriate level for your needs and budget. Please contact us for current pricing. All prices include fitting, Real Ear Measurement verification, and a comprehensive aftercare package.
What is Real Ear Measurement and why does it matter?
Real Ear Measurement (REM) is a clinical verification process where a tiny probe microphone is placed in your ear canal alongside your hearing aid. It measures the actual sound being delivered to your eardrum, allowing us to fine-tune the device with precision. Studies show that hearing aids verified with REM perform significantly better than those fitted without it. Despite this, many providers skip this step.
How long do hearing aids last?
Modern hearing aids typically last 4 to 6 years with proper care and maintenance. Technology advances during this time, so we will advise you when an upgrade would offer a meaningful improvement. We provide ongoing maintenance and servicing throughout the life of your devices.
Can I try hearing aids before committing?
Yes. We offer trial periods so you can experience hearing aids in your daily life before making a final decision. This allows you to assess the benefit in real-world situations, at home, at work, and in social settings.
Why should I choose an independent clinic over a chain?
Independent clinics like Buckinghamshire Hearing are not tied to any single manufacturer. This means we recommend the best device for you, not the brand we are contracted to sell. We also offer continuity of care, you will see the same audiologist at every appointment, building a clinical relationship over time.
