In their own words
About Helen
Helen was a practice nurse at Kingsmere Surgery for nineteen years, where she ran the ear clinic until the surgery stopped offering wax removal in 2022. She came to us the same year. She removes wax by microsuction in the shop three days a week and at home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and she is the one who tells Alan when an ear needs a doctor rather than a hearing aid.
