What We Do
Peninsula Ear Care are situated in Peverell, Plymouth in Devon and operating within the city as well as the surrounding areas of Cornwall and the South Hams.
The principal service is ear wax removal, this will reduce pain and often restores hearing which has been lost following wax blockage. The use of microsuction is quick clean and far more effective than traditional techniques known as irrigation or syringing. The team are professionally trained and highly skilled NHS employees. The practitioners are able to assess and treat a wide variety of ear conditions including those requiring prescription medications.
Peninsula Ear Care do not use or recommend syringing, this follows NHS recommendations. Microsuction is the safest method of removing foreign bodies, wax and infective matter from the ears and greatly reduces mess and pain following treatment. Some centres promote alternative treatments including candling, but the NHS doesn’t support this; as there is no physical benefit and there is the risk of harm, including burns.
Traditional syringing has the potential to cause damage to the ear lining as well as the possibility to damage the ear drum itself, which may cause hearing loss which could be permanent. The NHS recommends microsuction as the preferred and safest approach for ear clearance
As per earlier visits, Tim Needham was his usual helpful and informative self. He took care to explain what he had observed on his initial inspection of my ear canals and followed on with full advice as to what his treatment entailed as he went along.
Truly excellent care and service.

Really pleased with the service and treatment I received from Peninsula Ear Care. Both my ears were blocked and the issue had become bothersome and was getting me down.
I was able to book an appointment easily online and by emailing the team, I was seen more quickly by Tim. I was happy that both ears were sorted out within 20 minutes.
Thanks again Tim, I am relieved that I am not putting up with blocked ears anymore 🤩

Fantastic. Talked through everything and made sure I was happy to proceed. I had. A locked ear for weeks and I can finally hear again! Thankyou :)
Fabulous service. Tim was amazing with my elderly disabled mum on her home visit. She now has her hearing back and is happy to hear the tv again and best of all, it doesn't have to be on full volume any more.
They are always the best. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The receptionists are always welcoming and make you feel valued. The audiologists are always in good humour and treat you with total respect and dignity

I’ve had problems with my inner for 5+ years, I have been just managing them,I encourage anybody having problems with their ears to see Tim or his associate. I was made to feel welcome and getting to know Tim throughout this experience he made me feel relaxed and he is very knowledgeable about his field of expertise, I feel confident going forward with treatment from Tim and his Practice.
I have visited Tim a few times now to get my ears sorted and every time has been great. He is so nice and makes you very very comfortable. In the past I have spent a lot of time on wait lists for uncomfortable appointments with no resolution but not anymore! I really recommend Peninsula Ear Care to anyone who is looking for wax removal and other services!
Had my ears done today by Tim. He was very professional and explained everything was done quickly and my ears are so much better.
Brilliant. Tim was very personable and explained what he was doing. As it was, I didn’t have enough wax to work on and he explained what my problem was.
Ear wax removal, was stubborn but Tim persevered and got rid of it. My hearing is amazing now. Tim is friendly and efficient, the procedure was reasonably quick
Can’t recommend enough very professional quick friendly and well priced well done Tim
Great service. He did no more than was needed and gave good advice for the future. Would not hesitate to return.
I was very pleased on my first visit, I was told beforehand what was going to happen and I felt quite comfortable during the procedure
Just saw Tim today and he removed the wax from my right ear. Fantastic service. Thank you Tim
Rosemary Philp ,visited yesterday and found Tim very friendly and calming during the procedure that took nearly half an hour to remove a difficult lump of wax. Thank you Tim.
Tim was a very calming presence. In the end I only needed my consultation as my ear drum was healthy - however had I needed ongoing/further work I would have felt very safe with Tim at the helm 👍
Went to clinic and met Tim a few days ago. I was having problem with one ear. Tim made me feel very comfortable from the off, very friendly.
Ended up having both ears done as both were blocked, slightly uncomfortable but not painful. One ear slightly sore but hoping it will settle. Definitely recommend Tim’s services.

I had a very pleasant experience which has successfully removed some wax and improved my hearing. I was recommended here by my surgery. I see that another recent positive review is from an acquaintance. The online booking process works well.
Have just been to Peninsula Ear Care in Peverell for consultation and wax removal. I can recommend this very highly as it is painless and very quick. I can now hear clearly.
Excellent service from Tim. He has a very kind and caring manner which makes you feel relaxed. I was able to get an appointment within 24 hours . I would strongly recommend him to anyone .

Tim was kind, patient and did a genuinely excellent job. Visiting after being highly recommended by a friend I was impressed with the high level of care and calming attitude. I will be happy to recommend Tim to a friend in need.
Tim helped my 11 year old who had a build up of wax, effecting his hearing. Tim was excellent with him through the whole process. Would highly recommend for adults and children alike. Thanks Tim.
Friendly and professional. I was hoping wax would be the issue, and the easily solvable. Unfortunately it isn’t - my hearing it’s getting worse due to age.
Tim was friendly, and straight forward in giving this clarity and recommending next steps. Thank you

Had a problem with one ear, contacted Peninsula about 9-15am and had an appointment for midday, attended and was extremely impressed with the professional explanation given of the procedure to be undertaken to remove the hard wax from my ear. A painless process and a very reasonable price for the service. Highly recommend Peninsula.
Fantastic and friendly service by Tim. My hearing is now bionic thanks to him! The procedure was quick and comfortable. Very professional service that I would definitely recommend.
Fantastic Experience; I was completely blocked and deaf after a lot of swimming but Tim cleared my ears quickly and painlessly. Thank you for restoring my hearing !

Many thanks Tim for your excellent professional treatment today. I'm looking forward to hearing my Granddaughter's voices without them having to shout or get grandma to pass on the details. Thanks once again.
Fantastic professional service, contacted Tim late evening and he fitted my daughter in for an appointment the very next morning.
Would highly recommend and will return if any further problems arise in the future.
