Audiometric Evaluations

Complete hearing testing for adults are provided by a Hearing Instrument Specialist/Audioprosthologist (ACA), who is National Board Certified in Hearing Instrument Sciences, and is a New York State registered Hearing Aid Dispenser. Evaluations include measures of hearing sensitivity for Air and Bone conducted sounds, measures of Speech Discrimination ability and as well as Speech Reception Thresholds. When necessary, assessment of the middle ear function (impedance audiometry) is performed and attached to your audiogram. Testing performed is not a medical examination. All clients tested are suggested to contact an Otolaryngologist for medical evaluation before purchasing hearing instruments. All tests performed by a Hearing Instrument Specialist, Audioprosthologist, or Registered Hearing Aid Dispenser are for the sole purpose of selection and fitting of a hearing instrument. Testing is not considered an Audiological evaluation.

Diagnostic Hearing Evaluations

During your audiometric evaluation, you will be tested by a Board-Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist using a series of low & high frequency words to determine your ability to understand verbiage within a conversation. We will also give you several words to repeat. The results will help us determine your percentage of hearing loss, your ability to understand speech and how hearing aids will improve your ability to hear.
