Hearing tests and wax care if you live in Athlone
HearMed does not run a clinic inside Athlone. The nearest full-time options are Tullamore on Patrick Street and Portumna on Clonfert Avenue.
Most Athlone patients choose Tullamore for weekday appointments (call 057 934 9388). Portumna suits people on the Galway side of the Shannon who prefer a lakeside drive.

Nearest HearMed clinics from Athlone
HearMed Tullamore is at Patrick Street, Tullamore, Co. Offaly (R35 F2X0). Phone 057 934 9388. It is a full-time clinic, not a monthly pharmacy day.

What you can book
From either clinic you can book a free hearing test (about 45 to 60 minutes), ear wax microsuction, tinnitus discussion, and hearing aid fitting with aftercare.
If you need a home visit because travel is difficult, say so when you book and we will confirm coverage for your Athlone address.
Travel notes
Tullamore is roughly a 30 to 40 minute drive east of Athlone via the M6 and N52, depending on traffic.
Portumna is about 45 to 55 minutes southwest, useful if you already travel toward east Galway.
Both clinics are ground-floor owned clinics open weekdays 10am to 5pm (closed 1pm to 2pm). Book ahead; they are not walk-in pharmacies.
