Audiology
Our hearing is an essential element of our daily lives. We rely on it to communicate with friends and family, to acquire information in our occupations, for recreation through music, sports, and television, and even for safety and protection by monitoring our environment. Unfortunately, hearing loss is quite common, and it can go unnoticed until it significantly impacts our quality of life.
Hearing loss can be the result of numerous causes, ranging from significant damage of the inner ear structures to simple ear wax. Commonly it results from a combination of environmental noise exposure and normal aging. Hearing loss usually occurs slowly and over time. Often it manifests in the form of complaints from friends and family. Are you frequently asked to turn the television down? Do you ask people to repeat themselves? Is dinner conversation in a restaurant increasingly difficult? If so, your hearing may be changing.
The audiologists at Rosewood ENT have years of experience in the evaluation of hearing disorders through comprehensive audiologic testing of adults and children. In addition, we perform individualized analysis of the types and degrees of hearing loss to determine the amplification which would best benefit each patient. We consider the hearing ability, listening environment, cosmetics and resources to choose from the most advanced device available.
Here are some common complaints of people who may benefit from a hearing evaluation:
- Told by friends and family that you seem to have worsening hearing
- Frequently ask others to repeat themselves
- Cannot discern conversation in social situations with background noise
- Receive complaints from others that you have the sound level of the television too loud
- Do not fully participate in business situations because you have difficulty hearing details
- Have had sudden worsening of hearing
- Experience constant, high-pitched ringing in one or both ears
- Have a history of loud noise exposure
- Withdrawal from social situations because they are too difficult
