My husband needs one. He sees the doc a couple of times a year to have his ears water pik'd.

This is just too funny. The article says it can be ordered from a company in Orange Park, FL. I live about 10 miles from there. When I clicked on the website link it is a website for a doctor I was a patient of many years ago. I drive by his office almost everyday. :rotfl:

Believe it or not our facility has purchased these. They work great. Less messy and they really do a great job of irrigating ears. When I first seen them I could not believe that they could really work until I irrigated a patient ears and you would not believe how fast it works. Just put the correct (disposable) ear tip on and squirt it in the ear.
