Comprehensive state-of-the-art hearing testing
If you or a family member notices hearing loss, look to audiologist Dr. Robin Andrews at Doctors’ Hearing Center for solutions. As a board-certified doctor of audiology, he uses state-of-the-art diagnostic tests to determine whether or not you have hearing loss.
Several tests may be performed to determine the degree and type of hearing loss, including sensorineural hearing loss and conductive hearing loss. A thorough diagnostic evaluation may include:
-
Diagnostic hearing evaluations – During your examination, you will be thoroughly tested to determine your ability to understand conversation. The results will help us determine your percentage of hearing loss, your ability to understand speech, and how hearing aids can improve your ability to hear.
-
Audiometry – We measure hearing sensitivity and a variety of auditory capabilities.
-
Video otoscopy – We make a thorough physical examination of the ear and its anatomic structures.
-
Videonystagmography – This technology lets us evaluate the vestibular system for possible balance problems.
-
Tympanometry – Tympanometry is an examination used to test the condition of the middle ear, mobility of the eardrum (tympanic membrane), and the conduction of bones using variations of air pressure in the ear canal.
Results help Dr. Andrews determine the best treatment options for each patient. A thorough evaluation is also critical to successful hearing aid selection and fitting. It eliminates trial and error, saving you time and inconvenience. When your hearing loss can be helped by us, we deliver a personalized treatment plan best suited to your needs for the best possible results.
