NHS South East London is working to improve access to safe, timely, and effective earwax removal services across south east London. Many people experience problems with earwax build-up, which can cause discomfort, hearing difficulties, and sometimes impact balance.

At present, access to earwax removal can vary depending on where you live and which services are available locally. Some people may need to pay privately, wait a long time for appointments, or travel further than they would like. We want to change this by designing a consistent community earwax removal service that is fair and accessible for everyone across south east London.

How you can get involved

We would like to hear from:

  • People who have used earwax removal services in the past
  • Carers, family members, and friends who have supported someone needing treatment
  • Health and care professionals who refer patients for earwax removal
  • Anyone with an interest in how services are delivered in the community
Complete our short survey below - deadline extended - 16 November 2025

Your feedback will help us understand:

  • What works well in the current services
  • What challenges people face when trying to access earwax removal services
  • what improvements would make the service easier to use, quicker to access, and more inclusive.

Your insights will be used to shape the future community earwax removal service for south east London.
