As from Monday 29th July ear syringing will no longer be available at Roathwell Surgery.

Ear syringing is no longer considered to be the first line treament for the clearing of ear wax. Current guidlines are that ear drops should be used to soften the wax which will then enable the natural movement of the wax from the ear.
