The Complete Hearing Assessment

Get to the root of your hearing challenges with our Complete Hearing Assessment

hearing examination

A full diagnostic hearing examination that leaves no detail unchecked

Struggling to follow conversations, especially in groups or busy places, can be frustrating and isolating. At Alto, we take the time to get to the root of these challenges with advanced hearing assessments.

The Alto Complete Hearing Assessment goes beyond our Free SoundCheck hearing check. In a 90 minute appointment, we explore eight key areas of hearing and cognitive health, giving you a complete picture.

We assess how your ears are functioning, how well you hear in real-world settings, and how hearing connects with your overall wellbeing. You’ll also experience the difference that amplified sound can make, guided by our expert audiologists.

Because we’re fully independent, our recommendations are always shaped by what’s best for you. We’ll help you find a hearing solution that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

Understand exactly what you need to achieve better hearing

The Alto Complete Hearing Assessment is designed to give you a full understanding of your hearing, what may have changed, and the personalised support available to help you reconnect with the sounds and conversations that matter.

Hearing & you

We start by exploring how your hearing affects everyday life; your conversations, relationships, confidence, and overall enjoyment of activities.

Lifestyle sound profile

Together, we identify how hearing loss may be impacting your quality of life, beyond simply hearing less. This helps us focus on solutions that truly make a difference.

Visual ear health inspection

Your audiologist will carefully examine your ears for wax build-up, infections, or any visible concerns, ensuring your ears are healthy and safe.

Middle ear function check

We gently assess your eardrum and middle-ear function using a simple, comfortable pressure test, providing insight into your ear health.

Comprehensive hearing test

A detailed audiological assessment measures how well you hear quiet sounds across different frequencies, critical for understanding speech clearly in everyday situations.

Speech-in-noise testing

We evaluate how well you understand speech in noisy environments, reflecting real-life listening challenges such as restaurants, social gatherings, or busy streets.

Personalised amplification

Finally, you’ll experience how tailored hearing technology could improve your daily listening and enjoyment, helping you reconnect with the sounds that matter most.

Our audiologists are also trained to carry out cognitive screening when necessary, ensuring a complete view of your hearing and overall auditory health.

Is this hearing test for you?

The Complete Hearing Assessment is designed for people who recognise that something has changed and want clear answers. Book this test:

  • If you already know you’re struggling to hear as well as you used to, this is the best place to begin.
  • You have been advised by a GP or other health professional to get a full test
  • You currently wear hearing aids
  • You wanted a detailed, personalised overview of your hearing health

If you’re only beginning to wonder whether your hearing might have shifted, or you’d simply like reassurance with a quick check, we recommend starting with our free SoundCheck appointment instead.

I decided to wait a couple of weeks before writing a review as I wanted to check that the huge difference in my hearing would last. I'm happy to say that it has. I had no idea that a simple, non-painful wax removal process could make such a difference. Thank you to Andrew and the rest of the team at Alto.

Excellent service. Went in for a sound check and had a very informative appointment with annual follow up and no pointless hard sell. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

We had a very good experience. The Receptionist was both cheerful and helpful. Mariia was amazing – her patience, skill and care extracting a very stuck and difficult to remove lump from my husband's ear had to be seen to be believed. He can hear much better now 😁 Thank you for an excellent service.

Absolutely ‘first class’ service. Had quite a lot of build up of wax in my ears and naturally some discomfort and reduced hearing. I cannot recommend highly enough the professional and friendly process provided including a hearing test. Thank you again.

Very impressed. I was wondering if I had tinnitus and needed ear wax removal . I had my ears examined and various hearing tests , the results of which were shown on the computer and clearly explained. It was all painless and all my questions were answered so I felt very reassured. I had booked for ear wax removal but as I didn't need it doing I only paid for the examinations. The receptionist and audiologist were both lovely and I would certainly recommend this service.

I’ve never needed to visit an audiologist so this was a first. Thankfully managed to get a same day appointment which was fantastic and Only 15 mins away. Lovely lady on reception and very helpful regarding where to park. Filled out their form and met by Megan, the audiologist. Another lovely lady who explained everything. Very informative and gave great advice on next steps. I will certainly use Alto again if needed and would highly recommend to others.

I needed microsuction to remove earwax and managed to get an appointment very quickly at Alto Hearing Market Bosworth. Carl Morley is the most gentle person I have ever had doing this. I highly recommend him, he is both professional and relational. Thank you.

Had a great experience here when I brought my daughter. Leesa took the time to explain and take me through the results of her hearing test and answer any questions I had. Receptionist was also incredibly friendly on the phone. Would definitely recommend and I will be visiting here for any future hearing needs for myself.

First visit to Alto Hearing, I accompanied my husband to his appointment. Super friendly welcome with coffee offered in a very comfortable waiting area. I mentioned to the receptionist that I had some concerns about my ears and was offered an appointment on the spot. I saw Megan the audiologist who was very friendly and thorough and gave me a free health check. Great service from Alto Hearing, my husband and I will be back there for our next appointment.

From the moment I walked through the door, i was made to feel very welcome and at ease. Much appreciated the cup of tea that was offered too! Andrew was very knowledgeable and thorough in checking my hearing and ear health, and had no problem updating my existing hearing aid settings. I will have no hesitation in returning and can highly recommend them. A great addition to Clitheroe. 5*

I visited Alto Hearing at Market Bosworth after suffering from deafness in one ear for over 4 weeks after water from swimming had entered and became trapped. I tried lots of suggested things but nothing workedp. At my consultation with Carl, he explained everything about the procedure he was going to do clearly to me, examined my ears shown me photos, carried out the procedure while talking me through it putting me at ease. When he was finished I was amazed I could here straight away, I was so pleased and can see why the reviews are 5 star, I…

Visited Alto Kenilworth for the first time after reading how important it is to have an ear test as you get older. I'd never heard of Alto before but they were close to me and decided to pay a visit. Booking was so easy I received a warm welcome o my arrival and my whole experience in having wax removed and a hearing test was better than I expected it to be. Alto was warm and friendly and the service was amazing I'm so glad I found this amazing place. All the staff were so professional and a great bunch…

Booked a last minute slot after visiting elsewhere (where I was told I couldn’t be helped) and arrived within an hour of booking, easy parking and a 10* experience! Was seen before my appointment was due so wasn’t sat around waiting. Thank you to the wonderful lady on reception in Lutterworth (I am so sorry I have forgotten your name!!). You were so kind, professional and friendly! A real credit to Alto hearing specialists! Your positivity and kindness makes a difference. And Mariia who was so pleasant and kind throughout. Offered me a free hearing test and made my day…
