Our Services

  • The whole experience at DWM Audiology was professional and reassuring. From having my ear canal moulds taken by Courteney to the efficient admin staff to the prompt delivery of my Pacific Ears Sleepsound Earplugs. I would thoroughly recommend this caring, knowledgeable clinic and big thanks to Myriam Westcott for the recommendation of the earplugs. I am sleeping soundly now, whatever the sounds are around me. Thank you all .

    I'm so glad I chose Myriam Westcott for a second opinion on some hearing tests that I had had done. I had previously had the unfortunate experience of having some very questionable interpretation of the tests, which I had after having developed tinitus and then hyperacusis earlier this year. The misdiagnosis I received I consider to be a traumatic event in my life. Had I known about Myriam when I first developed tinitus, a session with her would have reassured me immediately and saved me from a pretty traumatic few months getting to the bottom of what was going on with me. Myriam took a lot of care in listening to me and understanding my history thoroughly. She takes much time and care in explaining in thorough detail the way in which the ear and brain work together, with a particular emphasis in my case, on the science behind how trauma can cause and exacerbate symptoms such as hyperacusis and tensor tympani syndrome. She is not only a leading expert in this field of audiology and neuroscience, she is also an expert at supporting people therapeutically who experience these symptoms. An unusual and much needed combination- choose DWM audiology- you will be in good hands !

  • Kate Moore took me through some comprehensive testing for work related hearing standards. She was very patient and took the time to explain everything to me. It was the most informative consult I have had from any audiologist in 30 years of testing through careers in Defence and law enforcement training.

    From the very first contact I knew I was in good hands. The receptionist was so empathetic and went out of her way to schedule an appointment with Myriam. Myriam was like no other specialist I had dealt with previously. She explained things thoroughly and used visual representations so as to reinforce these learnings. Hearing issues can be incredibly debilitating but I left the appointment with strategies and a clear understanding of what I was facing. Most importantly she showed a great deal of compassion and her expertise made me feel confident of my pathway to wellness.

    Lu at reception was responsive, generous, kind, accomodating and extremely efficient when I called for assistance with my daughter's Misophonic symptoms. Despite being obviously very busy, Lu took the time to listen to me and provided clear, accessible information about the options I could pursue for my child through DWM Audiology. Thank you Lu, for your compassion and assistance - your response made such a difference. DWM Audiology is very clever to have such quality staff.

  • I definitely recommend DWM Audiology. I was initially unsure about what type of appointment would be the most appropriate for my particular situation, but Lu at reception was very patient and kind, and beyond helpful. She ran me through my different options and was very up-front about what services would be included/what the price would be etc. I ended up having a consultation with Dr Ashley Duns, and I couldn't find a negative thing to say if I tried. He took the time to really understand my symptoms and my situation, to fully explain what was going on for me, answer all of my questions, and tell me the strategies I can employ to manage it moving forward. Despite the lack of Medicare rebate on the service, I think it was undoubtedly worth it.

    I called to make an appointment for my 1 year old son who I was concerned about. Due to COVID restrictions I was unable to get an appointment which is understandable. However Kate took the time to listen to my concerns over the phone. She is knowledgeable, she explained the likely causes and instructed me on what to do. She was so helpful and extremely kind to take the time to listen and reassure me that things would be ok with him. Thank you Kate.

    My mother came to see Kate for her tinnitus. I wasn't sure what to expect but was really amazed with the results that my mum had after just one session. Kate taught my mum some practical tips for training the mind to shift its focus away from the tinnitus, particularly during times of stress etc. I highly recommend Kate to anyone who is suffering from tinnitus.

    The rewards of having a consultation is that you get a thoroughly transparent and easily understood assessment of your hearing; an explanation of one's hearing aid and how to get the best performance from it; an independent explanation of how well the hearing aid is functioning and how it compares with getting a new one (in my case an 8 year old one was working at 97% and I would pay thousands of dollars to add 2% better performance to that as recommended by audiologists giving free hearing tests) and a back up of excellent maintenance of the device. On leaving, I immediately planned a good Christmas holiday which I would not have been able to afford if I had followed the recommendations of the freebie audiologists I had been consulting.
