Customer

This morning I went to Toombs Allen Gosport for a hearing test. A lady called Nicola saw me. She was very professional and so lovely. she made me feel at ease explaining all the tests and what they were for, and then giving me a suitable hearing aid to try. Please pass on my thanks. If everone was as helpful the world would be a better place.

Thanks to Kara the whole complex procedure from testing my hearing and choosing the right style to instructing me how to recharge the batteries and change the filters was carried out with great understanding and humour. At last I can use the phone again and hear music and bird song clearly.

I came open minded for the Hearing test believing that there was no problem with my hearing, but I was proven wrong after a well executed thorough test carried out by your audiologist Charlotte Matiba, who explained what each test was trying to detect, then explained the results of the tests that indicated that I do have some hearing loss and how this can be improved.

Excellent service from Sarah over the past few months. Very full explanation about all aspects of hearing aid purchase and use. It would be even better if she had a slightly larger work area!

Andrew Hallett

Practice:

If only there were more like Kara Butterworth. Audiologist in the health care services. My initial contact happened when I was desperate to have ear wax removed - and help was not forthcoming from anywhere else. This audiologist... in a most professional way, dealt with this problem. Later following my free hearing test, where I was found to have hearing loss, she took care to explain and give me confidence, that would be able to manage hearing aids. Kara Butterworth goes that extra mile to make one feel encouraged and comfortable.

Christopher Ellis

Practice:

Audiologist:

As I expected, totally satisfactory tests, review, changes to end of aid carried on and advice given. Friendly, unrushed and very professional. I have full confidence in Charlotte and very pleased she is available every week.

R. Fullbrook

Practice:

On 4th October 2018 I had a full hearing assessment with your audiologist Cathryn Brett. I was greatly impressed with her professionalism and empathy. The comprehensive evaluation quickly convinced me that I needed hearing aids. She was persuasive in guiding me towards the correct option. Her technical knowledge and straightforward approach gave me full confidence to commit to a substantial investment. At no stage did she attempt any form of “hard sell” and I respected her and therefore the company for that. Your service is accessible and affordable, and I have already recommended you to other potential clients. An important point to add is that the Oticon OPN instruction booklets are very clear and easy to understand and follow … no frustrations or irritations! This is so unusual in our modern world – as I am sure everybody has experienced. Cathryn was even willing to have an extra appointment to convince my wife (the purse strings holder!) that the initial cost was good value for our (senior citizens) budget. Not only was she convinced but she decided that I must upgrade from the Essential to the Advanced package. As she put it, “If they (or you!) last ten years it is only a cup of latte per week … per ear!”

P. Shervington

Practice:

Audiologist:

The audiologist I saw today was both charming and informative. She explained the anatomy of the ear and its functions and talked me throught my results.

A. Gordon

Practice:

Audiologist:

Amanda is fantastic. I work at Tombs and Allen and was having problems with my ears and she couldn't do enough to help me. She made me feel comfortable and explained everything she was doing. She is a real credit to our opticians and provides a brilliant service. Would recommend Amanda and THCP 1,000 times over.

C. Tilbury

Practice:

Anna listens and then makes suggestions. Her knowledge and professionalism is excellent. She is the best I have come across in 50 years of wearing hearing aids.

E. Baker

Practice:

Six months ago, my wife persuaded me to have my hearing tested as I was having difficulties, especially in crowded environments. I went to THCP as they operated from my opticians’ premises. The first problem I had was a build-up of wax, which was dealt with very quickly. I then had a hearing test, which was extensive, and the results were explained to me in detail and in a language I understood. I then collected my prescribed hearing aids and have worn them ever since. I have noticed a continuing improvement in my hearing, not only in the volume, but most importantly, in the clarity of conversations I am listening to. I noticed a huge deterioration when I remove the aids, as I do shortly before going to bed. My only problem now is that I forget I am wearing them and have, on a couple of occasions, nearly taken a shower before removing them!!!!

C. Smith

Practice:

Audiologist:

Great, it always is. Anna is a very nice and friendly person and is great at her job.

J. Warren

Practice:

Punctual, friendly, polite, informed and helpful.

K. Long

Practice:

Had a hearing test even though I was convinced I was not deaf, but now having hearing aids I am able to hear the TV on 20 and not 30. Out with friends for lunch and able to hear, I now realise I did have hearing loss. I have them in playing badminton and table tennis and forget I have them in - they are so comfortable.

M. Toll

Anna was very proficient. She did her job thoroughly and in a helpful and pleasant manner. Although our devices were very expensive they are obviously very high quality. The after service has been excellent so far and I see no reason why it should not continue to be so. Because they are shaped to our ear canals our devices are comfortable to wear. All in all, we are very pleased.

K. Warne

Practice:

Very pleased with the whole service. Kind and pleasant lady. Thorough ear & hearing tests all explained very well. Chose fitted in the ear aids and so far, very pleased with them.

S. Warne

Practice:

I was very pleased with the attention that Amanda gave me, and she was very efficient and caring - also very thorough. I can now hear everything that is said to me and I'm not being a nuisance asking for everything to be repeated by relatives (especially my wife!). Thank you very much.
