Boots Hearingcare - Brighton Avis 33

I was provided with thoughtful guidance and helpful advice throughout the process of testing my hearing, discussing options and demonstrating a solution, fitting the hearing aid and after-care. Although I had reservations about the encumbrance of a hearing aid, they are both lightweight and inconspicuous, and have given me new confidence in socializing in noisy environments.

Very comprehensive test. Excellently explained options with no pressure to obtain a sale.

Boots were good when I first had my hearing test and fitting and, also, the first follow up appointment. But, after that I have had four cancellations of my review appointments and the last one was only one and half hour before the time and I was on my way. I am so fed up with their approach to their customers once you have signed up for the cost of the aid. I would recommend anyone considering a hearing test to go somewhere else.
Update: 1/12/25 Following this review Boots contacted me and offered a voucher for £15 worth of Boots Advantage points! I made a further appointment for my annual hearing check which was due today, 1/12/25 at 12 noon - guess what - it was cancelled again at 7.30am this morning. There is no caring, whatsoever, from Boots hearing and now, what do I do? As I am disabled due to a terminal lung condition I had arranged to be given a lift to my appointment today and so it isn't just me they have inconvenienced. Please, please do not go to Boots hearing for your test to begin with - just choose another provider that is going to treat you with respect.

Georgina is a brilliant audiologist ! After more than 6 years of trying use hearing aids that weren’t working for my husband, her care and attention to detail has resulted in a complete transformation of his ability to socialise and join conversations in a number of important settings. Thank you Georgina you really are a star.

I have received extensive help from Georgina Rykalska over recent months enabling me to hear far better than my experience with Boots Hearing over the previous seven to eight years had achieved.
Georgina has delved deeply into my numerous hearing issues and resolved them in great detail where they have not been satisfactorily addressed previously. She has enabled a level of engagement with others which has not been possible for me since my hearing loss started. I am extremely grateful to her for all her care and professional approach to my needs.

The first contact was fine, the hearing test by Bruce started on time and was very comprehensive. I felt in good hands and decided for the top model which was set up by someone else.
Here the problems started, the computer system had problems and I was told that I can make the final setup and connection with the app on my phone at home. This did not work, because the app said „not correctly setup“.
Went back to Brighton boots and no one could help me, I was told to make an appointment in a weeks time.
At home I compared with/without hearing aid and found no difference.
Therefore I used the next appointment to return the hearing aid, hoping that the 3.5k£ are returned to my credit card soon.
Next time I will try a small business where I will be assured that I can pop in and get help even if I have to wait a little bit.

I was called in on time it all went well and everything was covered so well done.. John White..

Appointments very flexible
Tests explained and did not feel rushed
Specialist knowledgeable

My experience was made great by Georgina at Brighton North St. I have seen a number of audiologists at Boots and Specsavers and she is by far and away the best. Thank you Georgina you have made such a difference to my life; you made everything easy. Nothing was too much trouble.

All the staff in the department were really helpful and polite. Michelle, the audiologist, was absolutely amazing and patient with both myself and my husband. We both felt completely confident with our dealings with her.

I had a very well informed and balanced consultation with the focus on getting the best solution for me and not pushing me towards one product or other. As a relatively young client my audiologist (Michelle) seemed genuinely pleased that I was taking her advice seriously in opting to get hearing aids.

Need to get more staff to answer the appointments phone
Iv just given up waiting 20 min to make an appointment for my mum
The eyesight appointment tel was much the same a year ago and we had to change to another company as I never got any answer

Good range of appointments offered. Very thorough and everything explained properly.

I feel I must give credit where credit is due. I was fortunate enough to have my first appointment with Georgina today at Boots Brighton. She is the most kind caring and very professional person. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She reset my hearing aids which I just purchased explained to me in detail all the questions I had and sent me out feeling extremely satisfied. I would without any hesitation recommend her.

this company are terrible dont get back to you if you put bad review they asked me for contact details been waiting 6 weeks for them there hearing aids are a complete waste of money they are worde than free nhs ones i woldnt advise any one to buy them

Thorough assessment and very helpful discussion.

I was fortunate enough to see lovely Georgina again today . Her customer service is second to none , she is a credit to Boots hearing care with her empathy and excellent customer service skills. I am so glad she works in the Brighton branch as she always put you at ease and shows genuine care and proffecionalism.
Thank you Georgina you are a star.

Our audiologist in Brighton Georgina Rykalska was excellent. She listened carefully about the problems experienced with the hearing aids; they were sent away under warranty for repair, and she gave us detailed and helpful advice about their care; managing hearing aids in restaurants etc. This advice compared very favourably with previous meetings with another colleague. She has arranged a review for us, and we very much hope to be able to rely on her advice in the future.
