Our ground-level office is wheelchair accessible and the testing booth is equipped with a short ramp for easy entrance.
Evaluation for Hearing Aids
There are several steps that are part of a Hearing Aid Evaluation. If you suspect that you might need a hearing aid, you will first need to have an audiometric evaluation. At the time of the audiometric evaluation, a case history will be taken to determine how much your hearing problem impacts your day-to-day life as well as the lives of your family.
Hearing Aid Dispensing and Fitting
Once you have selected your hearing aids after an evaluation, your audiologist will program them based on a prescription to meet your hearing needs. This appointment will generally take at least one hour. It is also a good idea to bring a family member or close friend to the hearing aid fitting so they can help remember all the information that is given and be a support to you.
Hearing Aid Repair and Maintenance
Hearing aids are comprised of tiny electrical components that may experience wear and tear over time. Our office will send a reminder card for a Hearing Aid Check-up Appointment every 6 months, for the audiologist to thoroughly clean and evaluate the function of your hearing aids.
If the units have been exposed to moisture, excessive wax, debris or physical damage, the routine service by the audiologist will help ensure the aids are functioning properly.You may try to turn the hearing aid on in the morning and find that there is no sound or you may find that the battery door has come unhinged.
