Truly independent
Drummond Hearing is clinician-owned — not part of a chain and not tied to a single manufacturer. Recommendations are based on what fits your ears and your life, not what a supplier is pushing this quarter.
Private Audiologist · London
An independent private audiologist in Kensington & West London.
Drummond Hearing is a clinician-owned private audiology practice run by Scott Drummond — BSc Audiology, HCPC and RCCP registered, and Head of Audiology at the Bupa Cromwell Hospital since 2010. Every hearing assessment, hearing aid fitting and ear wax removal appointment is delivered one-to-one by Scott.
About Scott Drummond
Scott qualified with a BSc in Audiology from the University of Leeds and worked at senior clinical level across the NHS — at York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Eastbourne District General Hospital and North West London Hospitals NHS Trust — before joining the Bupa Cromwell Hospital in Kensington in 2010, where he is now Head of Audiology.
Alongside his hospital role, Scott founded Drummond Hearing as an independent private clinic offering the kind of personalised, unrushed care that isn't always possible in a busy hospital department.
