Who we are 

The Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Network is a multidisciplinary collaboration of clinical specialists in these intrusive and troubling symptoms. We have formed the Network to offer modern and advanced treatments and interventions, based on clinical evidence and experience. 

What we do 

We offer customised assessments of tinnitus and hyperacusis, consideration of related issues such as sleep and well-being, and impartial advice to suit individual needs. We work closely with a range of professionals locally, including a wide number of Ear Nose and Throat Consultants and Clinical Psychologists, to ensure that you receive the best possible care and advice. 
 
We offer appointments throughout the Midlands, Cheshire and Mid Wales. We try to offer flexible and rapid turnaround appointments where possible, and we can see patients who have private health insurance or who wish to self-fund for services. We are HCPC registered which means we meet the standards set out by our UK regulator. 

Fully Certified and Registered 

We are Independent State Registered Consultant Clinical Scientists (Audiology), State Registered Hearing Aid Dispensers and Specialist Audiology Practitioners. We maintain our registration and continuing professional development through regularly attending high level training courses (validated by British Academy of Audiology and Health Professions Council). This ensures our expert assessments and rehabilitation advice remain leading edge and evidence-based. 
 
We work closely with a range of professionals locally, including a wide number of Ear Nose and Throat Consultants, General Practitioners and Clinical Psychologists.
