Do you need a hearing test?
Knowing when to have your hearing tested can be challenging, but asking yourself the following questions may help:
​
-
Do conversations sound like people are mumbling?
-
Is it difficult to follow discussions in group settings?
-
Has anyone mentioned that your TV volume is too high?
-
Do you hear a persistent ringing or buzzing in your ears?
-
Are you missing the sound of phone calls, doorbells, or alarms?​
​
If you’ve answered "yes" to any of these questions, it might be time for a hearing test. Even if you’re unsure or have noticed any changes in your hearing, it’s always better to be cautious and schedule an assessment promptly.
What happens after the hearing test?
Once your hearing test is complete, we’ll review your results with you and explain the next steps based on your hearing health. Here’s what you can expect depending on your results:
1. Normal Hearing
If your results indicate normal hearing, there’s no need for immediate action. However, we recommend periodic hearing checks to monitor your hearing over time, especially if you’ve noticed changes or are exposed to noisy environments.
2. Medical Referral
If the test identifies an underlying medical condition affecting your hearing, such as an ear infection, excessive earwax, or other health issues, we’ll refer you to an appropriate medical specialist for further evaluation and treatment.
3. Mild Hearing Loss (No Immediate Help Needed)
For those with mild hearing loss that doesn’t currently require intervention, we may not recommend a hearing aid right away. Instead, we’ll provide advice on protecting your hearing and suggest regular retests—typically every 12 to 18 months—to monitor any changes.
4. Hearing Loss That Requires Assistance
If your hearing test shows a level of hearing loss that would benefit from assistance, we’ll discuss the options available, including hearing aids. We’ll work with you to find the best solution tailored to your needs, lifestyle, and preferences.
Follow-Up Support
Regardless of your results, we’re here to support you every step of the way. Whether it’s ongoing monitoring, medical referrals, or fitting and fine-tuning hearing aids, our goal is to help you maintain or improve your hearing and stay connected with the world around you.
