Patient Testimonials:
"When I met Gladys, I had severe hyperacusis and very troublesome tinnitus. My journey through the NHS had led to no answers and Gladys was a beacon of light. Her knowledge of my problems was outstanding and instantly put me on a path of recovery. She has helped me along the way to finally being hyperacusis free and habituated to my tinnitus. I have furthermore referred people I know with similar problems to Gladys for help. I would highly recommend anyone with a hearing problem to talk to Gladys."
"I really struggled with tinnitus and didn’t understand what was happening to me. I now have a greater understanding and knowledge which has helped me manage the tinnitus. Dr. Akinseye was very helpful and offered great support and understanding."
