About

Cheadle Hearing Centre opened in July 2023 and is our fifth centre. Owned by Clare Kewney, Brad Snelling and Rory Kewney it is part of The Hearing Centres group of clinics, a family run business which also includes Bollington Hearing Centre, Leek Hearing Centre, Biddulph Hearing Centre & Buxton Hearing Centre. We also provide support for the Deafness Support Network in Northwich and at Chapel House, a dementia care home.

Placing an emphasis on customer care, we offer a holistic approach to prescribing hearing aids which includes delving into people’s lifestyles before making any hearing aid recommendations.

We also use the latest technology for ear wax removal making the experience a comfortable one.

Our team (and centres) have grown so although we have a team of staff, you will always be seen by either Clare, Brad, Rory, Harry, Lauren or Martyn in our Cheadle Centre and be welcomed by Miriam.

Audiologists Clare Kewney, Rory Kewney and Audiology Assistant Bradley Snelling own Cheadle Hearing Centre. Other staff include group practice manager, Lisa Hadfield, Trainee Audiologist Lauren Reynard and receptionist Julie Cowap.
