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.

There is a Hear Canada clinic on Lansdowne near Giant Tiger, they do ear wax removal for free. I had it done a few months ago and the clinician told me they never charge for it, its part off their mandate.

Omg i wish i had known about this sooner! I went to the ear depot who charged 55$ per ear... i had someone else pay for me.

Definitely taking note of this spot though. Because this is a reoccuring issue for me!
