Audiology
About the Department
Though our base is in Chesterfield, we service a large area in North Derbyshire, visiting a wide range of community clinics.
​
The experienced team offer a high quality service that is tailored to the patients needs utilising British Academy of Audiology (BAA) recommended assessment techniques and fitting methods. All the hearing aids fitted are the most current digital signal processing aids available on the NHS.
