I had it done in the Dominican Republic after picking up an ear infection. It was quite pleasant actually, although what comes out isn't so appealing! It was exceptionally low tech, big syringe about the size of a Smarties tube, wooshing solution right into your lugholes.
It was around 15 years ago so I don't remember how much it cost. However I do remember that the nurse who did it had enormous breasts.

My Friend had it done at Esnaf 65 tl. He was very pleased with the service and now does not shout.
-
Thank you all very much that's very helpful! I think I must do it soon!

The English speaking chemist opposite the smaller Migros in central Fethiye offered to syringe with my wife's ear if the drops he provided failed,they worked!
-
My husband charges 50 TL. He's in Ovacik.
I would not recommend to have your ears syringed by a chemist.
They have had no training to do this.

If you have SGK it is 35tl at The Esnaf. Make sure you use drops before going because they will use suction to get the wax out which is very unpleasant.. We waited 2 hours at The Devlet despite having an appointment..

Mercury,you paid 35 in the SGK, i paid 25 not in the sgk,i was in and out in one hour,
if your over 60, i think you go to the top of the list, but at any hospital,
unless your private you have to wait your turn, and your also paying a
monthly sum in the SGK,

How long ago is that? Barrie has been at least half a dozen times before and after SGK as he has hearing aids which leave him prone to having his ears syringed about every 6 months. It 55TL normal price but with SGK is 35tl....Our friend went 6 months ago who is a visitor and he was charged 55tl..

Hi
I had it done at the Devlet about eighteen months ago. Quick and easy. I called in at the tourist information office, just to the left of the main door, and they made me an appointment, apologising profusely because they couldn't do it there and then.
I went back the next day and was shown to the waiting area by my interpreter. He came and collected me when my appointment was due and in we went.
Ears syringed - half a ton of yuk thudded into the kidney bowl - suddenly I could hear again. Everyone smiled. I was whizzed to the doctor who had a quick peer into each ear and gave me a thumbs up. Presumably the brain was still there.
The smiling nurse made me a gift of the pretty hair slide she'd loaned me to hold my hair back. I paid 30TL. We all smiled at each other again and that was that.
Hope that was helpful.

You do make me laugh Trosky! ;) One thing though, did you not have to put oil in your ears first?
