If your audiology evaluation suggests a need for further support, we can seamlessly refer you to our expert speech pathology team.

Understanding hearing loss

Hearing loss, also known as hearing impairment, is defined as a reduced ability to hear sounds in one or both ears. It can range from mild difficulty hearing certain high-pitched sounds to total deafness.

Common signs you may need an evaluation include:

  • Difficulty following conversations in noisy environments.
  • Turning up the TV volume louder than others prefer.
  • Asking people to repeat themselves frequently.
  • Feeling fatigued after social interactions due to the effort of listening.

If you suspect you might be experiencing issues, take our five-minute hearing test. Your results can help determine if you should schedule a professional evaluation.
