Hearing Asessments

Hearing assessments are vital for maintaining auditory health and quality of life. 

 

If you think you've suffered hearing loss or are having trouble with your hearing, the earlier you intervene, the better your chances are of managing and improving your hearing successfully.

Why would I need a hearing test?

A hearing assessment can help with:

 

Identifying any hearing issues
For a comprehensive understanding of your hearing health, we recommend a thorough screening at least once a year. Should any hearing loss be detected, we can determine its extent and explore tailored solutions to enhance your auditory clarity and quality of life.

 

Ear wax removal
Occasionally, wax buildup in the ear can impede hearing and cause discomfort or pain. During a hearing assessment, if we identify ear wax as being an issue, we can conduct a painless procedure known as clinical microsuction, swiftly clearing the ear canal to restore comfort and clarity to your hearing.

 

Hearing aids
If hearing loss is a concern, our audiologists will discuss with you the option of a hearing aid. Our diverse selection incorporates cutting-edge technology, expertly customised by our specialists to suit your individual needs and preferences.

1.

Following a brief interview, the audiologist will assess your ear health.

Next, they'll administer tests, playing varied pitches through headphones, prompting you to signal when you hear a sound.

3.

We'll then use a specialised headband to gauge your response to vibrations.

If the audiologist thinks you may benefit from a hearing aid, or further investigations, they will discuss this with you and the various different options.
