How do I know if I need a hearing test?
If you often find yourself asking people to repeat themselves, turning up the TV volume, or struggling to follow conversations—especially in noisy places—it may be time for a hearing test. A simple hearing evaluation can determine if there’s a problem and what solutions may help.
How long does a hearing test take and what should I expect?
Most hearing tests take about 30–60 minutes. During the appointment, your audiologist will discuss your hearing history, perform a series of sound and speech tests, and review your results. If a hearing loss is detected, they’ll walk you through the options and answer any questions you may have.
What Are The Benefits of a Hearing Test?
Early detection: A hearing test helps identify hearing loss in its early stages, allowing for timely intervention and better management of the condition.

Personalized solutions: The test results enable audiologists to recommend tailored hearing aid solutions or other treatments based on an individual's specific hearing profile.

Improved communication: Addressing hearing loss through a hearing test can enhance interpersonal communication, leading to stronger relationships and reduced social isolation.

Better quality of life: Timely identification and treatment of hearing loss can significantly improve an individual's overall well-being, mental health, and cognitive function
