Hearing Tests
Our facilities have sound-treated booths where we conduct our comprehensive hearing tests. We recommend children receive hearing tests periodically. Adults only need a hearing test when they feel their hearing has been compromised. After the tests are complete, we will discuss our findings with you, as well as any treatments or hearing aids we recommend to help you achieve optimal hearing.

Video Otoscope Exams
Sometimes, hearing loss can be a result of a pre-existing medical condition. The video otoscope exam allows us to determine if this is the case. The otoscope gives us a real-time visual of your ear canal and eardrum, which is displayed on a monitor for our team and the patient to view together. This way, we can easily explain to the patient any potential problems that we find and do further testing if necessary.
