Hearing Evaluations
An audiogram measures how well a person hears. This is one of the first tests that we will perform when there are complaints of a hearing loss or other problems related to the ears. You will be sitting in a sound-treated booth and asked to respond to tones and speech to assess any loss of loudness and/or clarity of your hearing.
Other tests, such as tympanometry and acoustic reflexes, will also be performed to evaluate the status of the eardrum and middle ear space. This basic, but comprehensive evaluation usually takes 20-30 minutes.
