DO I NEED A HEARING TEST?
It’s a good idea to receive a hearing test if it has been more than a few years since your last exam. If you begin to notice possible signs of hearing loss, however, it’s important to promptly speak with a professional about testing. Some common early signs of hearing loss include:
- Difficulty hearing women and children
- Others commenting that your television or radio volume is very loud
- Having to see someone’s face to understand what they’re saying
- Difficulty having conversations in restaurants and other public places
- Ringing or buzzing noises in the ears
Scotch Institute of ENT offers a full spectrum of care to patients experiencing hearing loss, including thorough ear exams, hearing tests, and hearing aids. We specialized in multiple types of hearing testing, including:
- Pure tone audiometry
- Acoustic reflex testing
- Tympanometry (evaluation of middle ear function)
- Otoacoustic emissions (evaluation of inner ear function)
- Speech audiometry
- Ringing in the ears (tinnitus) assessment
