How is a hearing aid selected?
The process of choosing a hearing aid usually begins with medical and hearing examinations. Either your family doctor, or one of our otolaryngologists does the medical exam. The hearing test will be carefully administered by one of our audiologists, a health professional who specializes in evaluation and nonmedical treatment of hearing loss. The test results, called an audiogram, will show whether your ears are healthy, what type of hearing loss you have, and exactly what you can and cannot hear.
