Hearing Test
A diagnostic hearing evaluation is the first step in determining your hearing capability. If you have a hearing loss, it will detail the extent, type, and specifics of your particular hearing loss.
The diagnostic hearing evaluation consists of a variety of tests to determine the unique aspects of your hearing loss, as well as the level at which you can detect and understand speech. This evaluation can be conducted on people of any age, from newborn infants to seniors.
Hearing Aid Evaluation and Fitting
After the initial evaluation and medical clearance has been obtained, you will be seen for a Hearing Aid Evaluation. During this appointment, we discuss your hearing loss and its impact on communication. Most patients and their families have many questions that will be addressed. Various types of hearing devices and appropriate options such as circuitry, one versus two devices, and style will be discussed.

When the order is placed for the hearing instrument, at least ½ of the payment is required. The other ½ will need to be paid upon returning to be fit with your hearing device. Full payment is required before any product leaves the office. The charges will include the cost of the devices, plus a 4.6% tax on the device and a non-refundable dispensing fee of $125 (this charge covers the 60 day adjustment period and ear-mold(s) for BTE’s).
60 Day Money Back Guarantee
There is a 60 DAY ADJUSTMENT PERIOD that allows you the opportunity to wear your hearing devices in different listening situations. This will allow time for fine tuning the instruments to make them comfortable in the majority of your situations. If you decide not to keep the hearing aid(s) during the adjustment period, you will receive a refund for the hearing aid(s) and the tax. The Dispensing fee is non-refundable.
Hearing Aid Delivery
When you return for your first fitting, the hearing aids will be programmed for your hearing loss and fine tuned based on your needs and preferences. You can expect to return weekly or bi-weekly the first month. Programmable hearing aids usually need adjusting as you become more experienced listening to sound in your changing environments. We have the ability to program many parameters within the hearing aid, so it is very important to have an ongoing relationship with your audiologist during this process.

Bone, like air, can conduct sound vibrations. For people with hearing loss, this provides another pathway to perceive sound. Typical hearing aids rely on air conduction and a functioning middle ear. In cases where the middle ear function is blocked, damaged or occluded, the Baha system may be a better option as it bypasses the outer and middle ear altogether. Instead, sound is sent around the damaged or problematic area, naturally stimulating the cochlea through bone conduction.
