Services offered
Hearing assessments
Our hearing specialists use a range of straightforward tests to find out:
- What’s causing hearing loss
- Which sounds you have the most difficulty hearing
- If hearing loss solutions can help you rediscover your hearing and reconnect with loved ones
Pure tone audiometry
A hearing professional will measure your hearing sensitivity by playing a track over earphones and asking you to react. This simple but effective process is the gold standard test for hearing loss, identifying the softest sounds you can hear.
Acoustic reflex test
This useful hearing screening helps your hearing professional define what type of hearing loss you’re experiencing. A small probe is used to check how your ear reacts to loud sounds. It’s painless and only takes a few minutes.
Tympanometry
Stabbing pains and fluid could be a sign of an ear infection or perforation in the middle ear. Tympanometry is a straightforward procedure designed to check middle ear health — as part of a routine hearing test.
Bone conduction test
Using a gentle vibration, a hearing professional can tell how well your inner and outer ear are working. Typically, you only need this test if you suspect wax or fluid is causing a blockage.
Speech audiometry
Speech testing can be helpful for evaluating how well you distinguish sounds. This shows the hearing professional if you have difficulty recognizing words and engaging in regular conversations.
Consultations
During the consultation, we perform detailed hearing assessments, provide immediate results, and offer personalized recommendations tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re experiencing hearing difficulties or simply want to ensure your hearing is in top condition, our hearing care professionals provide the expertise and guidance you need for optimal hearing health.
