Private assessment versus the NHS route
| NHS | Audio Hearing Aylesbury | |
|---|---|---|
| Access | GP referral required | Book directly |
| Typical wait | Several months in Buckinghamshire | Usually same week |
| Appointment length | Varies, often shorter | 60-90 minutes |
| Cost | Free at point of use | £95 |
| Written plan on the day | Not routine | Included |
The NHS route is a genuine option and worth taking if you are comfortable waiting. If the tinnitus is affecting your sleep or work now, the private route gets you to a plan faster.
What happens after the assessment
Your plan will point to one of a small number of routes: sound therapy, tinnitus retraining therapy, hearing aids, wax removal, or medical referral. Each is priced separately and nothing is committed to on the day. See what happens at the appointment.
