Audiology

My goal is to provide the highest quality of hearing healthcare to my patients.  

Audiologists conduct diagnostic examinations, test for abnormalities in the hearing system and its many subcomponents, treat people with balance problems, and provide and fit hearing aids

Diagnostic Tests Include:

• Acoustic reflex testing – to evaluate the integrity of reflex neural pathways
• Otoacoustic Emission Testing -- to detect cochlear damage.

Diagnosis and Management

After testing is completed, I will thoroughly explain the results to help you understand the causes of hearing difficulty and symptoms you experience. The level and type of your hearing loss will be classified to recommend appropriate treatment and management options.  If a medical intervention or further evaluation is indicated a referral will be made.
