Our children and young people's audiology centre (CYPAC) cares for children and young people with hearing difficulties.
Our hospital services
Our service is split into routine and specialist care. Our routine service provides hearing tests for children of all ages as well as care for children with middle-ear disorders. Our specialist service provides care for children with significant hearing loss, and hearing tests for children with complex needs.
We provide routine care for children in our local boroughs:
- Lambeth
- Southwark
- Lewisham
We provide specialist care across south east London boroughs including:
- Lambeth
- Southwark
- Lewisham
- Bexley
- Bromley
- Greenwich
We also offer specialist hearing assessments for autistic and complex needs children in our Hummingbird Clinic.

At these clinics we work with colleagues from other services including:
