- Diagnostic Audiological Evaluation
Hearing Evaluations are performed by a staff audiologist to determine type and severity of hearing loss. These results will aid in making appropriate recommendations for style and circuitry of hearing aids. Medical referrals are made when necessary.
- Balance/Dizziness Assessments
Problems with balance and dizziness are assessed using VNG, to assist in the diagnosis of disorders of the vestibular system (balance portion of the inner ear, nerve and brain). Referrals for medical management and/or rehabilitation will be made when appropriate.
- Hearing Aid Dispensing
A broad spectrum of hearing aids is available. The most advanced technology has always been included in the products we dispense. We currently recommend digital hearing aids from Widex, GN Resound, Phonak, Siemens, and Unitron. Products from other companies are also available. We verify the success of a hearing aid fitting in several ways including Visible Speech Mapping (VSM), Aided Speech Discrimination testing, and subjective questionnaires.
- Hearing Aid Repairs
All brands of hearing aids can be tested and evaluated in our office. Major repairs are performed by the original manufacturer if possible.
- Custom Earmolds
Earmolds for hearing aids, swim molds, sound protection and personal electronic devices can be made through our office.

A wide variety of assistive listening devices are available. These devices include telephone amplifiers, alerting systems, and television amplification, FM and cerumen management products.
- Hearing Aid Batteries
Most types of hearing aid batteries are available in the office or by mail.

Most insurance companies, including Medicare do not provide coverage for hearing aids. However, we will be glad to assist you in determining what coverage you have, and in submitting claim forms.
