NHS aids are free after referral and are good, basic instruments. Private is for shorter waits, more styles (including Phonak Sphere and Oticon Intent), rechargeable options, and aftercare at a clinic you choose. Many people keep NHS aids and only go private if restaurants or work are still a problem.
Phonak Sphere — speech in noise. Oticon Intent — smaller RIC, more natural all-day sound. A mid-range chipset is often enough. We will say if the flagship is wasted on your audiogram.
Our published pairs start from £795 essential, about £3,195 for Sphere. We match or beat a like-for-like UK clinic quote by £50 a pair. Full rules in the terms.
Ear look, audiogram, wax if needed, written quote, 60-day trial on selected aids, two years of scheduled reviews on new private fittings. Marylebone or a home visit in Slough, Maidenhead, Windsor or Reading.
