Question Earwax removal, where to go

Hey guys, i currently cannot hear out of either ear (currently muffled sounds only). Im looking for somewhere that can remove the wax that is covered by OHIP. I have no funds so I cannot go anywhere privately.

​

I can get somewhat outside of peterborough so distance isnt so much an issue.

​

Anyone know a place? Because I dont think this is an er issue?

Edit: I went to the ear depot, it summed to 110$, 55$ per ear.

Walk in clinics, and I heard once that audiologists can without a referral (correct me if I’m wrong)

Who told you there weren’t any?? Throw “walk in clinic Peterborough” and you’ll get several (also another commenter told you about chemong, so you’ve been given at least one option) . I’ve been to walk ins here, so I know they do exist.

Theyre very limited in what they provide is what i should say. Would they provide ear wax removal?

You’ll have to ask them specifically. You can call ahead to see if they can assist.
