TESTING Grand Haven Ear & Hearing will perform a comprehensive evaluation of your hearing. Some of our testing methods include: • Audiometric test of frequency-specific sensitivity • Speech reception test to pinpoint the lowest volume at which you can identify words • Word recognition test to evaluate your hearing clarity for speech • Loudness test to determine the range of sounds most comfortable to you • Tympanometry test to measure the mobility of the eardrum • Otoscopic exam to look for earwax, foreign objects and any signs of fluid or infection TECHNOLOGY Try your hearing aid before you buy. Your hearing test reveals the exact nature of your hearing loss and allows Grand Haven Ear & Hearing to determine whether a hearing instrument is right for you. We then recommend hearing devices that will fit your budget and lifestyle. Grand Haven Ear & Hearing can simulate the sound of new hearing aids in the office for you. There is no better tool available to let you hear what a hearing aid sounds like. If the examination and hearing test results indicate that your hearing loss is due to a medical problem, we will contact your physician. Bringing you the latest advances in hearing aid technology.
