Comprehensive Hearing Tests in Berwick
Our comprehensive hearing test is a thorough, unhurried assessment — typically 45-60 minutes — that goes well beyond a quick screening. You'll leave with a clear explanation of your results, a copy of your audiogram, and honest advice on next steps. There's never any pressure to buy anything.
Medicare, DVA, WorkSafe Victoria, and Hearing Services Program (HSP) clients may be eligible for a subsidised or bulk-billed hearing test — ask our team when you book.
- Otoscopy — a visual check of your ear canal and eardrum
- Pure tone audiometry — measures the quietest sounds you can hear
- Speech audiometry — tests how clearly you understand real speech
- Immittance/tympanometry — checks middle ear function
- No water, so lower risk of infection or eardrum damage
- Performed under magnification for precision
- Comfortable and quick — usually both ears in one visit
- Safe even for patients with grommets or a history of perforation
Ear Wax Removal in Berwick (Micro-Suction)
Blocked or itchy ears? Muffled hearing? Our Berwick clinic offers safe, professional ear wax removal using micro-suction — the method recommended by ENT specialists as the safest option, because no water is used. Most appointments take 20-30 minutes, and many patients notice clearer hearing immediately.
Medicare rebates may apply, and pensioners, DVA and HSP clients may be eligible for subsidised care.

What Our Patients Say
Real reviews from our valued patients at Sense of Hearing Clinic in Berwick
"I am very grateful for the reviews, if not I would not have found Judith from 'Sense of Hearing', Berwick. Judith did an excellent job. Went in as a deaf man and now my hearing is as good as it can be. The whole process was absolutely pain free. The service I received was first class. I recommend her to anyone who requires the service of an audiologist, with no hesitation at all."

"I recently visited Dr Judith for a blocked ear that had been troubling me for days. My GP tried the usual water irrigation but it didn't work, so I was referred to an audiologist. I didn't even know a suction procedure existed, but the visit was comfortable and effective."
