Walker Hearing Clinics now open at Fermoy Primary Care Centre

Walker Hearing Clinics are here to help you with your hearing health concerns in their brand-new clinic, open in the Fermoy Primary Care Centre.

Here in The Avondhu area, Walker Hearing Clinics, Fermoy has been providing the very best of care for the local community for over 10 years.

Hearing is important to your overall health and wellbeing, contributing to your safety, balance, work and social life. Hearing loss is emerging as one of the biggest health issues affecting older people around the world today.

In recent years, due to a major study published by the Lancet Commission in 2020, there’s a lot of talk about a potential link between hearing loss and dementia. For audiologists, this link between hearing impairment and dementia is very significant because studies ultimately advocate for monitoring and protecting our hearing as we age.

There are many reasons why you may acquire a hearing loss, including getting older (presbycusis), exposure to loud noise, complications at birth, certain infectious diseases, genetic causes, chronic ear infections or ototoxic medications.

Like anything, if you notice a change with your overall health, you want to get checked out straight away by a qualified professional. If you notice anything different about your hearing or your ears you can call us directly or get a referral from your GP. Walker Hearing Clinics employ qualified, clinical audiologists, who provided expert care for both adults and children.
