OAE Evaluation
An otoacoustic emission test (OAE) measures an acoustic response produced by the inner ear function. Tones or click-like sounds are sent through a probe placed in the ear to evaluate whether the ear produces these ‘emissions’ in response to the sound. The absence of otoacoustic emissions may indicate hearing loss to some degree.
Hearing Aid Evaluation and Fitting
We can assess your need for a hearing aid and offer a large collection of technologies and designs to suit your unique lifestyle and personality.
Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs)
ALDs can make a big difference in cutting through the background noise in loud, crowded places such as movie theaters, restaurants and churches or while watching t.v. or on the phone . Especially, when you use them in conjunction with a hearing aid. We can provide you with the best information on the latest devices.
One-on-One Counseling
Discovering that you or a loved one may need hearing assistance can be unexpected or upsetting. You may have a lot of questions. We can help you better understand what to expect, how to use different types of hearing technology, and daily care and maintenance. We are even available to do house calls if you are too ill to leave the hospital or your home.
Custom Ear Molds
Having the most comfortable and personalized fit for earplugs can make a world of difference when using any listening device. We can provide custom ear molds to be used for musician earplugs with filters, swim molds, noise protectors, hearing aids or Assistive Listening Devices. They can even be created for MP-3 players and cell phone devices!
Hearing Aid Repairs
Got a problem with a current hearing aid? We can evaluate your device and recommend a fix – whether it’s something we can do right in our office or if it needs to be sent out to a manufacturer for service. All products can be purchased or repaired with extended warranties.
