✨ Farewell to our beautiful (but slightly impractical) bed — she’s gracefully resigned from her vestibular audiology duties.

💪 In her place, we welcome a sturdy, hardworking replacement, ready to rise to the challenge!

With a little audiology-themed décor (because of course 🎧👂), she’s dressed, styled, and already feeling right at home.

Here’s to and a touch of fun in our clinic space! 🌟

💦👂 Custom Swim Moulds = Happy Ears! 🐬✨

Keeping little ears dry during swimming is so important — especially for children with grommets, recurring ear infections, or sensitive ears. 🌊

These brightly coloured, custom-made swim moulds are:
✅ Comfortable and perfectly fitted to your child’s ear
✅ Made from soft, durable material
✅ Connected with a safety cord for extra peace of mind

If you hear us frantically mumbling things like "Semont Plus," "Gufoni," or "Epley," don’t panic — just hand us some coffee, a snack, and the VNG goggles.

Jumping onto the trend. A vestibular audiologist can only dream...

At the recent celebration of His Majesty the King’s birthday at the British High Commission in South Africa, something truly powerful stood out that made my Audiology heart proud: a sign language interpreter was present.

In a world that often forgets to include, this small but meaningful gesture sent a strong message — inclusion and communication matters.

As audiologists, we’re deeply aware that communication comes in many forms. Whether through sound, speech, or sign, everyone deserves access to moments of pride, ceremony, and community.

Here's to a future where accessibility is not the exception, but the norm.

to a set of custom in-ear musician monitors I made for a patient.

These monitors were fully customized for both fit and acoustic performance—providing clarity, isolation, and long-term comfort during live sets and rehearsals. It’s always rewarding to support musicians with hearing solutions that meet the demands of their profession.

When your audiologist becomes part of the fall risk conversation...

Ceiling tiles? Almost installed.
Safety protocols? Questionable.
That’s a box… on a chair… under a determined audiologist.

Not exactly best practice—but sometimes passion for perfect acoustics gets the better of us! (We promise, no audiologists were harmed during this upgrade.)

Stay tuned for better acoustics, and hopefully better safety protocols.

Arcadia Audiology is turning up the vibe!
Our hearing aid programming room is getting a serious glow-up—sound-treated walls for enhanced focus and multiple voice-activated speakers for the perfect blend of tech and comfort. Simulating real-world challenges will be much more precise. Because when it comes to hearing care, a well-designed space supports both precision and an elevated patient experience.

Way more acoustic panels are on the way, and our Real Ear Measurement (REM) and Test Box systems are getting ready to move into their acoustically optimized new home.

Every Wednesday I drive between Pretoria and Bela-Bela to see patients. I always stop for coffee on my way home and have had the pleasure to chat with your team on that side. Your baristas are wonderful. Thank you for making my day after a long shift.
