“The entire team was very professional, knowledgeable and welcoming. Rachel was clearly very passionate about improving my hearing and dedicated to finding the best outcome for my individual needs.”
Experience better hearing for 2 weeks, free of charge.
Unlike most hearing clinics, we won’t ask you to pay upfront or commit before you’ve even tried hearing aids in your daily life.
First, we’ll assess your hearing to understand your specific type of loss (free for eligible pensioners, fee applies for others) or we can review a recent test from another provider. Then we’ll let you experience the latest hearing aid technology in your own home, at the beach, or wherever life takes you. FREE for 2 weeks.

Specialised Paediatric Hearing Tests for Children
Ariana Rutgers
“Super child-friendly and accommodating! Our daughter gets very anxious with medical appointments, but the team at Shire Hearing Clinic went above and beyond – even coming outside when she didn’t want to go in.”
If you’ve noticed your child isn’t responding to sounds, struggling with speech development, or having difficulty at school, it could be a sign of hearing loss.
Our clinics feature dedicated Paediatric rooms designed to make the experience comfortable and accurate for young ears.
We’re here to guide you with empathy and expertise every step of the way.
What You Need to Know About Your Hearing Health
If you’re reading this, you or someone you love may be struggling with hearing loss. Maybe conversations are harder to follow, the TV’s always too loud, or your child isn’t responding when called.
I understand. I’ve spent 17 years helping people like you
who thought:
- Hearing loss was something they'd have to live with
- Hearing aids were uncomfortable, expensive, or just "not for them yet"
- They could "manage fine" and deal with it later
But here’s the truth: hearing loss isn’t just about sound—it’s about connection. That’s why we started Shire Hearing.
We’re a family-owned clinic deeply connected to the Sutherland Shire, and we treat every client like family. Your hearing is unique, and you deserve care that reflects that.
You don’t have to figure this out alone. Let’s talk.

Hear it for yourself
“My introduction to Shire Hearing was with my mother who lives in Cronulla, I live in Wollongong. Rachel was very caring with my mother who will be 99 on Anzac Day 2020.
My experience with hearing aids started when I mentioned my tinnitus, during the conversation I realised Rachel was very knowledgeable and she told me when I started to lose my hearing, wearing hearing aids would help. They did!”
We had a lovely experience from booking to assessment. The clinic is accessible and they had loads of availability at the Engadine location. The assessor was gentle and relaxed and created a calm and fun environment for our child. 5 stars 🌟
Honestly the most amazing place to get your hearing tests done ✅. I’ve never felt more welcomed & safe before & highly highly recommend the lovely Krystal @ Engadine Clinic. Such great service and knowledge , I couldn’t recommend enough. Please choose Shire hearing Engadine for your next appointment ❤️.
What a great and calm experience! Krystal connected straight away with my toddler son, She took the time to play and engage with my son other than just for testing.
Usually my son is hard to get to cooperate with visual assessments of his ears, but he was happy and comfortable with Krystal.
Would highly recommend Shire Hearing Engadine!
Krystal at Shire Hearing was fantastic with our two neurodiverse boys. She had them cooperating, engaged and interested. And she picked up a previously unknown issue so we can look into it further. Fantastic experience and service!
They are amazing. Any issue with hearing aids they fix for free. Even if it’s just changing the filters. When I was choosing my new hearing aids they lent programmable ones to try and compare. I got the top ones in the end. The programs on the App are also designed just for me which helps adjusting in noisy environments.
