When Should You See an Audiologist?
Our audiologists provide hearing loss and affordable hearing solutions for patients who are experiencing any of these symptoms:
- Difficulty following conversations
- Difficulty understanding words against background noise or in a crowd
- Changes in behavior, such as withdrawing from or avoiding social settings
- Turning up the volume of the television or radio
- Tinnitus (ringing in the ear)
What to Expect from Your Audiology Evaluation
Our main goal is to help you live your best life by improving your hearing, balance and communication. The first step is to assess your hearing needs through a comprehensive hearing evaluation.
During the appointment, our audiologists will take the time to get to know you and your unique situation. We'll walk you through the process step-by-step. We'll ask about your lifestyle, what features you need in hearing technology, and even your budget. Our audiologists want to give you the support that fits your life perfectly.
Hearing Devices and Treatment Options
Based on the results of your hearing evaluation, we can provide custom-fitted prescription hearing aids and other audiology services. Our treatment options include:
- Assistive alerting devices: Depending on the level of hearing loss, you may benefit from an assistive alerting device that uses a flashing light, a vibration, or an amplified sound.
- Assistive listening devices (ALDs): Personal hand-held amplifiers that can help you communicate in one-to-one conversations.
- Auditory processing tests: A battery of tests designed to identify those individuals with difficulty processing auditory information.
- Balance and vestibular treatment: Our audiologists can help evaluate and treat issues with the balance system in the ear.
- Cochlear implants: An electronic device that sends signals to the auditory nerve and may be used for people with severe hearing loss.
- Tinnitus treatment: Our specialists offer evaluation and treatment plans for tinnitus and sensitivity to loud noises.
