Your Full Hearing Assessment
Your Full Hearing Assessment is the next step after a Initial Consultation and is a deeper, more detailed investigation of your hearing issues or concerns.
Your audiologist will discuss your priorities and any relevant medical history as well as your lifestyle needs. An otoscopy will be undertaken as well as your hearing thresholds measured using pure tone audiometry.
We will then run some speech audiometry testing.
Depending on the results of your full hearing assessment your audiologist will recommend next steps.
This appointment takes 60 minutes and we recommend you bring a friend or family member for support.
Why prioritizing your hearing health is crucial:
Early Detection: Many individuals may not be aware of gradual changes in their hearing until it significantly affects their daily lives. A comprehensive hearing assessment can detect even subtle changes in your hearing ability, allowing for early intervention and management.
Personalized Care: At The Hearing Clinic, our experienced audiologists provide personalized care tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle. A Full Hearing Assessment enables us to understand your unique hearing profile, allowing us to recommend the most suitable solutions and interventions for you.
Improved Quality of Life: Addressing hearing loss early can significantly enhance your overall quality of life. From improved communication with loved ones to increased confidence in social settings and professional environments, maintaining good hearing health can positively impact every aspect of your life.
Prevention of Further Damage: Ignoring signs of hearing loss can lead to further deterioration over time. By proactively addressing any hearing concerns through a Full Hearing Assessment, you can prevent additional damage and preserve your hearing for years to come.
