Hearing
Evaluations
Hearing loss can occur at any age. If you have concerns about your or your family member's hearing, schedule an appointment with our Audiologist. At this appointment, we will review relevant medical history, perform an otoscopic examination of your ears, and complete a hearing evaluation in a sound-proof booth.
