Rapid access, subject to availability
Same-Day and Rapid-Access Earwax Appointments
If you have a suspected non-emergency earwax concern, use the live booking diary to check the current appointment options at our South Molton clinic. A rapid appointment may be available, but it is not guaranteed and it does not guarantee wax removal before assessment.
When not to book routine earwax removal
Earwax Removal Devon is not an emergency medical service. If you have a sudden or rapidly worsening hearing change that is not clearly explained, do not wait for a routine wax appointment. Seek urgent NHS advice through NHS 111 or the appropriate urgent medical service. If you believe there is a medical emergency, use the emergency medical pathway.
This page cannot determine what is causing a blocked ear. NICE guidance distinguishes urgent hearing changes from routine wax removal and recommends assessment before a removal method is chosen.
A faster decision route
When a rapid earwax appointment may be appropriate
Rapid access is for people seeking a prompt appointment for a suspected routine wax concern. The live diary, rather than a static website claim, is the source of current availability.
- You think wax may be causing a non-emergency blocked-ear feeling or reduced hearing.
- You want to see what clinic appointment times are currently available.
- You understand that the appointment starts with an ear examination, not an assumption that wax is the cause.
Check, rather than assume
Appointment times can change. Select the clinic option in the booking diary to see the current availability before making plans.

A blocked or changed ear can have more than one explanation. If the change is sudden, rapidly worsening or otherwise concerning, follow the urgent NHS route above rather than booking routine wax removal.
when a blocked ear may not be earwaxRapid access still includes suitability checks
A prompt appointment does not remove the normal suitability requirements. The examination helps establish whether wax is present and whether removal can proceed.

Rapid access does not bypass assessment
The appointment starts with relevant history and an ear examination. The practitioner then considers whether wax is present and whether removal is appropriate. Where routine wax care is not appropriate, the next step may be advice or a referral rather than removal on that day.
Understand the concern
Relevant history and current symptoms are discussed.
Examine before deciding
The ear is checked before a removal method is considered.
Agree the next step
Removal proceeds only where suitable and possible after assessment.
