Steve

Audiologist at Hearing Aid UK

Steve has been a qualified audiologist for over 20 years, and his career tells you almost everything you need to know about where his priorities lie.

He started out with Amplifon in 1997, spending more than a decade as a domiciliary audiologist, which means he was visiting patients in their own homes long before home visits became a standard offering in private audiology. That grounding in patient-centred, in-home care has shaped everything about how he works.

Around 90% of his time is spent doing home visits, a deliberate choice rooted in a conviction he has held throughout his career: that hearing care, and particularly the aftercare and fine-tuning that make the real difference to how well a hearing aid performs, is better done in the environment where a patient actually lives their life.

There is a practical logic to that view that is hard to argue with. A hearing aid fitted and adjusted in a clinical room has to work in a kitchen, a living room, and a garden. Seeing those spaces, understanding how a patient moves through their day, and fine-tuning in context rather than in the abstract, produces better outcomes. Steve has been making that case with his work for two decades.

For anyone who has been putting off getting help with their hearing because the idea of clinic appointments feels like too much, Steve is exactly the kind of audiologist worth knowing about.
