What to Expect at a Hearing Test
-
We use an otoscope to visually inspect the integrity of your outer ear and eardrum. We will remove any occluding ear wax prior to testing.

Tympanometry is used to assess your middle ear function. This helps identify issues such as negative middle ear pressure, fluid build-up, and eardrum perforations.

You will listen for very quiet sounds at different pitches. This shows us your hearing thresholds, the softest sounds you can detect.

Bone conduction testing allows us to understand whether your hearing loss is conductive, sensorineural, or a mixture of both.

Speech audiometry determines your ability to hear and understand words in a quiet environment.

Speech-in-noise testing determines how well you can understand speech in the presence of background noise.
