The Initial Consultation
Your path to better hearing starts with a meticulous initial consultation. Our consultant audiologist, Eilene will delve into your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and explore your lifestyle to gather crucial information about your hearing health. After an exhaustive dialogue, the diagnostic tests commence.
Advanced Diagnostic Tests
- Pure-Tone Audiometry: This test measures the faintest sound you can hear at various pitches.
- Tympanometry: This technique assesses the condition of your middle ear and how well your eardrum moves.
- Speech Audiometry: This method gauges your ability to hear and interpret speech in different environments.
- Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs): This test evaluates the functioning of the hair cells in your inner ear.
Expert Analysis
The results are compiled following the tests into an audiogram—a graphical representation of your hearing capabilities. Eilene meticulously analyses this data to accurately diagnose whether a temporary hearing issue or a more enduring condition like sensorineural hearing loss.
