The Allen Reese Hearing Aid Center performs comprehensive hearing evaluations using standard pure tone testing, as well as extensive speech comprehension tests, to ensure an accurate map of your hearing loss. Using this map of your hearing loss, we can make the best recommendations for hearing improvement and better communications. The hearing test takes approximately one hour and includes a questionnaire regarding your hearing history and life activities so we can best recommend hearing technology and strategies for improved understanding and quality of life. During the evaluation process, we conduct a thorough examination of your ear canal and eardrum using a video otoscope. We check for excessive ear wax and any medical conditions that may need referral to a physician.
