All adults are welcome to book a free hearing test at Earaid. No GP referral or NHS process is required—just schedule an appointment directly with us. Our caring audiologists are here to make you feel supported and comfortable every step of the way.
At Earaid, a hearing test is simple, comfortable, and completely painless. Your audiologist will begin by asking about your lifestyle and medical history to better understand your hearing needs. Next, a series of checks will be carried out, including an examination of your ears (otoscopy), middle ear testing (tympanometry), pure tone audiometry, and speech assessments.

At Earaid, we want to understand what truly matters in your life and how hearing may be affecting it. We’ll talk about your work, home environment, hobbies and interests, helping us gain a complete picture of your needs for the best possible care.
We’ll also review your medical history by asking about any relevant conditions or symptoms, such as tinnitus or past ear infections. This allows our audiologists to identify any underlying health issues that may be affecting your hearing.
The next step at Earaid is an ear examination using an otoscope. A simple tool that allows us to look inside your ear. We’ll check that everything is healthy and clear, ensuring there are no blockages, inflammation or wax build-up that could affect your hearing.
At Earaid, the pure tone audiometry test is vital for checking your hearing. Simply Wearing headphones, you’ll listen to tones at different pitches and volumes.
We use a speech-in-noise test to recreate everyday situations like cafés or restaurants where background sounds can make listening difficult. Using headphones and recorded voices, we measure how well you hear speech with noise present. We also carry out a speech-in-quiet test to check your speech recognition without background distractions.
A full hearing assessment at Earaid takes around 60–75 minutes. Once complete, you’ll receive a clear breakdown of your results. Our audiologist will then guide you through the next steps, including whether hearing aids or further treatment may be helpful.
At Earaid our hearing assessments are completely free in our clinic with no obligation to purchase hearing aids. We offer home hearing tests which we charge depending on the distance and cover west midlands and surrounding. Our goal is to guide and support you with what is best for your hearing
A hearing test is a simple assessment that measures how well different sounds and tones can be heard. It helps identify any hearing loss and determines the best solution for improving hearing clarity.
Regular hearing tests help detect early signs of hearing loss, monitor changes over time and ensure hearing aids or other treatments are working effectively. Early detection allows for better management and improved quality of life.
Adults should have their hearing tested every two years, or sooner if any changes in hearing are noticed. Those exposed to loud environments or already using hearing aids may benefit from more frequent checks.
Ear Aid provides two convenient options:
At the clinic, an Audiologist performs a detailed ear examination followed by a series of sound and speech tests. The results are displayed on an audiogram, showing hearing levels across different frequencies. Recommendations are then made based on the results.
A qualified Audiologist visits the home with portable testing equipment. The process is similar to a clinic test, including ear check, hearing test and a full results review. The home test provides the same accuracy and professional care as an in clinic appointment.
Most hearing tests take up to 60 minutes, depending on the type of test and outcome of results
Yes. Hearing tests can identify different types and degrees of hearing loss, including conductive, sensorineural and mixed hearing loss. The Audiologist will explain the results and recommend suitable next steps.
After the test, results are reviewed in detail. If hearing loss is detected, the Audiologist will discuss suitable options such as hearing aids, earwax removal or further medical evaluation if needed.
Ear Aid offers free hearing tests for adults in our Birmingham Clinic. Home visits include a call-out fee depending on location.
Appointments can be booked online or by phone. Choose between a clinic visit or a home hearing test for convenience.
