Hearing assessments
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.

How it works
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.
We start by exploring how your hearing affects everyday life; your conversations, relationships, confidence, and overall enjoyment of activities.
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.
Your audiologist will carefully examine your ears for wax build-up, infections, or any visible concerns, ensuring your ears are healthy and safe.
We gently assess your eardrum and middle-ear function using a simple, comfortable pressure test, providing insight into your ear health.
A detailed audiological assessment measures how well you hear quiet sounds across different frequencies, critical for understanding speech clearly in everyday situations.
We evaluate how well you understand speech in noisy environments, reflecting real-life listening challenges such as restaurants, social gatherings, or busy streets.
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.
