According to the RNID, one in seven adults in the UK have some degree of hearing difficulty and more than half of the population over the age of 60 are unable to hear speech in noisy settings. Although treatment for hearing problems is available on the NHS, people can experience significant delays for a hearing test and for treatment. The choice of hearing aid is also restricted under the NHS.
Many people choose to opt for private treatment or for a private hearing aid, so Harley Street is an obvious place to consider.
