Diagnostic Hearing Evaluation
Diagnostic HEARING
Evaluation
The first step to better hearing
is understanding
your current hearing status.
At Waterloo Audiology we start each evaluation with asking some questions to get a better sense of your history, hearing concerns, and listening needs. Next we will complete a thorough evaluation of your ears and hearing system. This will include:
1
A visual examination of the ears
2
A status check of your eardrum and middle ear space
3
Tone testing to determine your hearing sensitivity
4
Speech testing to evaluate how well you hear in quiet and noisy situations
Once the evaluation is completed your audiologist will spend time with you going over your results and treatment options. Each patient will receive an individualized treatment plan to improve their overall hearing.
