How Is Hearing Loss Treated?
Audiologists work with patients of all ages, treating infants, children and adults for a variety of hearing and balance problems—they provide services that include:
1. Setup an Appointment
We can help you schedule an appointment with the right specialist for your needs. Hearing loss is common, and an in-person visit is the first step towards treatment. Family members or friends are always welcome.
2. See an Audiologist for a Hearing Evaluation
An audiologist will test your hearing to determine the cause and severity of your hearing loss. They will answer all of your questions and work with you to find the right treatment solution for your needs.
3. Have Your Hearing Aid Fitted
After helping you choose the treatment plan that is right for you, we’ll guide you through the hearing aid fitting process and our audiology team will provide ongoing support every step of the way.
4. Follow-Up Consultation
A follow-up visit is typically scheduled 1-2 weeks after your initial fitting. Your audiologist will work with you to make further adjustments, answer any additional questions and provide ongoing support.
SENT Hearing Aid Center has been helping people with their hearing needs since 1986. Our dispensing audiologists can provide comprehensive diagnostic audiological evaluations and can provide counseling and suggestions for hearing rehabilitation.
