Prior to becoming independent, I practised for many years at a well known, leading high street hearing care provider in Oxford, building up a large patient base.

We took the decision to move back home to Derbyshire, and I decided to use the opportunity to start my own practice.

I received a lot of phone calls from both old and new Oxford patients, resulting in me spending one to two days a week in Oxford, and the rest of my time in Derbyshire.
