Complete hearing testing for ages four to adult provided by a certified clinical audiologist. Evaluations include measures of hearing sensitivity for air and bone conducted sounds, measures of speech discrimination ability and, when necessary, assessment of the middle ear function (impedance audiometry), and special testing to determine the location of dysfunction.

Brainstem Auditory Evoked potentials are representations of neural activity within the auditory system obtained with an averaging computer. This information used in the differential identification of retrocochlear disease such as a tumor affecting the auditory nerve. In addition, Brainstem Auditory Evoked potentials are an important part of a test battery for the identification of hearing impairment in difficult-to-test patients such as infants, multiple-handicapped individuals, or persons with non-organic hearing loss.

Common battery sizes are 10, 13, 312 and 675. To identify zinc air hearing aid batteries the size, manufacturers use an industry standard color code system.

Custom-made noise protection earmolds Any kind of noise exposure is potentially damaging to hearing, so whether your noise exposure comes from your work environment or just mowing your lawn, custom earmolds can provide protection from noise-induced hearing loss.

The physician's evaluation of the dizzy patient often requires assessment of the vestibular system. Electronystagmography testing is electrical recording of eye movements caused by positional or caloric stimulation of the inner ear balance structures. The test battery will identify the presence of dizziness or imbalance due to unequal neural messages to the vestibular system.

We offer a wide variety of hearing instruments featuring the latest technology. Our staff emphasizes ongoing cleaning and maintenance after your hearing aid purchase to insure your receive optimum performance and benefit from your hearing aids. Repairs are provided on all makes and models with loaner hearing aids available when necessary.

The middle ear and the acoustic reflex are assessed with a clinical electroacoustic bridge, which can activate the acoustic reflex with either contralateral or ipsilateral test tones. Eardrum mobility and middle ear pressure are evaluated ipsilaterally.

Middle Ear Implant Diagnostics and Management ( implantable hearing device )This device is designed for mild to moderately severe sensory hearing loss. One part of the device (a magnet) is surgically implanted in the ear, and the other part is a removable processor that is placed in the ear canal. This device is useful for people who are unhappy with regular hearing aid use due to occlusion effect and feedback.

A small probe like an earplug is placed into the ear canal, and a series of tones is presented to the ear. The probe records the response from the hair cells of the inner ear to these tones to give an indication as to hair cell function.

With our real ear measurement system, we can now measure and record the actual performance of your hearing aids while they are in your ears. This computer analysis helps us to verify that your hearing aid prescription is precisely matched to your individual requirements.
