"When our close family friends Dave & Leona came to their retirement, they asked if we would like to take over their business and continue by following with their family centric approach. It has been a privilege to be asked to take over a legacy spanning nearly 30 years and we confident that we can further build on the heritage that Dave and Leona have crafted since 1997 - Exceptional Patient Care ! 
Our philosophy is focussed on providing the highest standards of hearing care to our local communities through a personal and professional service. All of our patients are on their own personal journey, so we understand how sensitive and emotional hearing loss can be. This is why we aim to provide a tailored solution ranging from Hearing Aids or Ear Wax Removal to a simple chat about how we can optimise your hearing.
We can and WILL Help you to achieve your goals
 

Lindsay Clark

Co-Owner
Lindsay is a qualified Audiology Practitioner. She gained her qualification through Mary Hare School for the Deaf in Newbury England in 2019. She has spent all of her Audiology career working for independent Audiology clinics so understands the nuances that make Audi-Lab, a family-run independent different to the other High Street providers. Patient Care is Lindsay’s primary driver and the main reason she started a career in the Audiology Industry. Lindsay specialises in Ear Wax Removal and is fully qualified in Micro-suction and the traditional method of Irrigation having gained her qualification at The Audiology Academy.
“When a patient walks through our door, not only do we provide them with a first class tailored hearing solution, we want them to be with us for life. The only way we can make this possible is by ensuring our patients feel confident in the services we provide and happy to come to us when they have a problem, no matter how big or small. When someone trusts us with their hearing, that’s a sacred trust so we have to do our job as well as we possibly can”. 
Lindsay and Tim have 3 children together – Matilda, Scarlett and Archie, so she understands how important a person’s hearing is if they want to enjoy the joy of connection with loved ones.

“Everybody deserves the joy of connection to loved ones. Our primary goal at Audi-Lab is to guarantee that connection”.
