Appointment & Fee FAQs

This is a private clinic – a Registered Nurse with special interest in ears performs the procedure, however Registered Nurses do not get issued with medicare provider numbers. Therefore, appointments at Ear Cleaning Clinic are not covered by Medicare.
Nevertheless, some small health funds and aged care/disability providers do cover this service, if you have extras/top cover with health funds a rebate may be possible – please check directly with your health care provider as we do not have a HICAPS machine.
Unfortunately DVA will not cover this service unless it is determined that exceptional circumstances exist for the client. This is due to the fact that sadly registered nurses are not funded to provide services under the Medical Benefits Scheme (MBS).
Where it is recognised that exceptional circumstances do exist for a client, DVA will consider these unique circumstances on a case by case basis, as provisions may exist to provide funding as a one-off.
In considering these requests, the patients GP and Ear Cleaning Clinic need to provide strong clinical justification for funding to be considered outside of DVA policy.
Please contact DVA directly if further information or clarification is required.

Yes, please review our Patients and Support Persons Policy prior to attending.
Yes. Our Registered Nurses are AHPRA Division One and have undertaken extensive practical and theoretical training specifically focused on microsuction ear wax removal and ear health.
Ear Cleaning Clinic is the only Gold Coast medical clinic that exclusively provides microsuction ear wax removal, our lovely Nurses perform microsuction all day, everyday (they’re the experts)!
Unfortunately it is a breach of the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia’s policy for a nurse to endorse himself/herself for financial gain. Section 133 of the National Law states that a person must not advertise a regulated health service using testimonials about the service or business. Ear Cleaning Clinic has had many clients who have written testimonials and would love to have them displayed, however it is against the law.
A New Patient Appointment is $135.
The fee for Existing Patients, Pensioners and Health Care Card Holders is $110.
If no microsuction is required or performed, a consultation fee of $65 applies.
