Hearing Tests
The Importance of Regular Hearing Tests
Regular hearing tests play a crucial role in maintaining your overall health and quality of life. By detecting hearing loss early, we can provide timely interventions and solutions that help you stay connected to the world around you. Our hearing tests can identify various types and degrees of hearing loss, allowing us to create personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs.
Hearing loss often develops gradually, which means you may not notice changes in your hearing until they become significant. By scheduling regular hearing tests, you can track your hearing health over time and address any issues before they impact your daily life. This proactive approach can lead to better outcomes and more effective management of hearing loss.
Initial Consultation
We begin with a detailed discussion about your medical history, lifestyle, and any concerns you have about your hearing.
Physical Examination
Our audiologist will perform an otoscopy to examine your ear canal and eardrum for any visible issues or blockages.
Comprehensive Testing
We conduct a series of tests, including pure-tone audiometry, speech recognition, and tympanometry, to assess different aspects of your hearing function.

No, hearing tests are completely painless and non-invasive. You'll simply be asked to respond to various sounds and stimuli.
We recommend adults have their hearing tested every 1-3 years, or more frequently if you're experiencing changes in your hearing or are over 60.
If we detect hearing loss, we'll discuss the results with you and recommend appropriate treatment options, which may include hearing aids or other assistive devices.
In most cases, you don't need a referral to schedule a hearing test with us. However, some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage.
