DS had his Army entrance medical. They have a concern about his hearing.
Apparently both ears meet the standard but one is excellent and the other is OK. They've asked him to get it checked out by his GP and to arrange a further audiogram through his GP.
What "checks" is the GP likely to do? There's nothing "wrong" with his hearing, would you expect the NHS to "do" anything?
How serious is this likely to be?
Presumably the GP will have to refer him for the audiogram. How long is this likely to take? If we decided to do it privately how would we arrange that and what's the approximate cost?
He's absolutely set his heart on this and is devastated. Hopefully it's only a slight delay and his application can still progress but I'd like to get it sorted one way or the other asap.
