Please be advised that ear syringing is available at Orbost Medical Clinic which is a great service to the community. This service is available by appointment only and requires a dedicated 30-minute booking with both a GP and a Nurse in our treatment room. We do not accept walk-ins for this service.

To ensure clinical safety, an initial GP assessment may be required, and patients must use ear wax softening drops for three days prior to the procedure. Because not all of our GPs perform this service, please clearly state you are booking for ear syringing so we can schedule you with the correct team and allow for necessary setup and cleaning time.

Please call our reception between 8:30 am – 5:00 pm to plan your care in advance.
