What happens during a hearing test?

When you arrive for your hearing exam, you will be greeted and asked to fill out several forms, including those that record your personal information, medical history, and insurance verification.
When your hearing exam begins, your specialist will review key personal information with you and will ask you a few questions to discover the specific types of environments in which you may be experiencing hearing loss and hearing problems.

Next, he/she will look into your ears by using an otoscope. This instrument is used to see the ear canal and the eardrum and whether or not there is ear wax obstructing the canal. Sometimes they will have a video otoscope, so you can see inside your ear as well.

After the visual exam of your ear is complete you will have foam earplugs in your ears and your specialist will walk you through a series of tests. They will print out the results and review them with you. If there is a hearing problem, you can decide which path is best for you.

This testing will enable us to determine:
• Whether or not a hearing loss exists
• The possible cause of hearing loss
• The degree and type of hearing loss and whether the loss exists in one or both ears
• The best treatment options
