Having worn hearing aids since I was a child and been through many different hearing services, I am all too aware of how things can go wrong.

He made me feel welcome and reassured and he was brilliant at putting my 3 year old at ease for his hearing test. Diane was also really helpful in providing flexibility with appointment scheduling and efficiently responding to emails and phone calls. Thank you both, I look forward to a longer relationship!"
"Thank you for your excellent service. Mr Punnoose is a very nice and professional man!" Mr Gough
"During lockdown I needed assistance with my Tinnitus programme and didn't think Prince would be providing his services.

"When you see your child regaining the confidence lost after years and years of continues ear infections and so many different medical opinions thrown at us...the truth is, the simplest things are more effective."

Since that first consultation, my daughter has regained confidence and talks about her problematic ears but equally that a solution has been found to avoid further ear infections. As a family we are very grateful for the advice and care given to our daughter at a time when we were feeling lost." "Both Mr Punoose and Diane have been so hands on with empathy and professionalism. We will always be grateful for their input into helping our daughter feel ‘normal’ again. Removing her fear by not joining in on swimming parties or go swimming in the sea....she no longer sits and waits patiently on the side...she now goes for it!"

"Prince is amazing!! Very professional and caring service provided. Everything was explained to me before and during my ear suctioning. Highly recommended. Brilliant service, great location, and very accessible. Friendly & informative correspondence from Diane (Prince's secretary) would highly recommend it."
"I consulted Mr. Punnoose, Audiologist at Gatwick Spire, and was impressed from the beginning. It is clean and tidy and the staff was very welcoming. Mr. Punnoose soon found the cause of my reduced hearing and invited me to attend the Crawley, Northgate Surgery for the removal of ear wax using the latest technology by clear suction. Throughout the procedure, he was kind and professional and explained everything he was doing to me in detail. I also then had a test called tympanometry to check if I had any problems in the middle ear like fluid or pressure variation. After all these procedures and his explanation, I am no longer worried about my hearing."
Ms. A Stribblehill
"I have been a patient of Mr. Punoose for nearly a decade. His service has always been impeccable throughout this time. He is professional and personable. Hearing tests are thorough and saved for comparison with any further tests. Following a test, I purchased a digital aid from Gatwick Audiology, which I have been delighted with. It does not end there! Mr. Punoose is committed to providing an outstanding after-sales service to ensure you are getting the best from your aid and managing well."
Margaret Buchanan
"Life-changing is the only way I can describe my experience at Gatwick Audiology. Having struggled with NHS hearing aids for many years and having people visit my home trying to sell me hearing aid with very little aftercare by unknown people, it was following a recommendation from a friend of mine I called Gatwick Park. From the very first telephone call and consultation, through to the fitting of my hearing aids and the follow-up reviews, I am treated with respect in a very warm, welcoming way by a team of very professional people. I have no hesitation what so ever in urging anyone who suffers from a hearing loss to pay them a visit, the service is great and the result priceless."
Beckwith
