Common questions

What happens at the appointment?

You'll be seen in a private consultation room at your chosen branch. The pharmacist confirms suitability, talks through your options, and gives you a clear next step.

Do I need an NHS number or a GP referral?

No. Private appointments are open to anyone — no NHS number or referral required.

How do I change or cancel?

Your confirmation email includes a link to manage your booking. You can reschedule or cancel there, or call the branch and we'll sort it for you.

Is there anything else I should know?

Use olive oil drops (preferably spray) in both ears three times a day for at least 5 days before your appointment. Please do not use cotton buds.
