Our comprehensive hearing assessments use advanced diagnostic tools to identify hearing loss severity and type. We measure sound thresholds and speech understanding to create personalized treatment plans. Our testing detects issues ranging from earwax blockages to permanent hearing damage, providing clear audiograms that guide appropriate interventions.
Hearing Aid Fitting
We customize hearing aid programming and physical fit to match individual needs. Our process includes real ear measurements for precise amplification, instruction on device maintenance, and verification of sound quality. We ensure comfort and effectiveness through multiple adjustment opportunities during extended fitting sessions.
Hearing Aid Repair
We diagnose and fix technical issues in most hearing aid models. Our services include wax removal, component replacement, and manufacturer warranty repairs. We provide temporary loaner devices during repair periods and offer regular maintenance to extend device lifespan and maintain optimal performance.

Questions
How do I know if I need a hearing test?

What happens during a hearing aid fitting?
The fitting includes device programming, physical adjustments for comfort, real ear measurements for accuracy, and care instructions. We ensure proper functionality and provide follow-up adjustments as needed.

Coverage varies by provider. We recommend checking with your insurance company about hearing aid benefits. We can provide documentation for potential reimbursement claims.

Annual testing is recommended for adults over 50 or those with existing hearing loss. More frequent testing may be needed if you experience sudden changes in auditory perception.
