Hearing Tests

It All Starts With Our Simple 3-Step Process

Hearing impairment affects more than just your ability to hear — it affects your quality of life.

Hearing Consultants stresses the importance of an accurate and timely hearing test. The hearing evaluation is just the beginning of your treatment, and it’s essential to setting your unique care plan in motion and taking action on hearing loss. Your in-depth hearing evaluation will help us craft a treatment plan that renews your ability to hear, allowing you to truly hear your best and live life on your terms.

Step One: The Interview

The interview is a critical step in the process that is personalized to your specific listening situations and goals. In this step we’ll determine the nature of your hearing concerns and uncover any specific areas requiring further attention. Some typical questions you’ll want to prepare for are:

  • Has anyone else in your family had hearing problems?
  • Have you had any illnesses or injuries that might have affected your hearing?
  • Have you taken any medications that might have contributed to hearing impairment?
  • Have you been exposed to loud noises in your workplace or while participating in leisure activities?

Step Two: The Hearing Review

The hearing review is an important step in understanding how the auditory system helps us hear and how each part of the ear plays a critical role in the way we interpret sound from our environments. We’ll conduct a hearing exam and a diagnostic test that will identify where and why there may be moments lacking clarity in hearing or understanding – referred to as Sound Void®.

  • A speech assessment measures how well you hear and understand ordinary conversation at different volumes
  • A middle-ear evaluation measures how your eardrum and hearing react to varying degrees of air pressure

Step Three: Treatment Solutions

We will determine your course of treatment based on your hearing test results, hearing goals and listening lifestyle. Treatment solutions can include:

  • Hearing Aids
  • Cochlear Implants
  • Aural Rehabilitation
