Adult Audiology

Your initial appointment will include a review of your history, a non-invasive ear examination and a comprehensive diagnostic assessment of your hearing. We will then discuss the possible hearing solutions that may help you.

As highly trained Audiologists, we play a crucial role in the treatment and ongoing maintenance of your hearing loss or condition. As an independent clinic, you can trust that we will only recommend the devices and solutions that we believe will be best for you and your unique hearing health needs.

Your hearing test will take place in a soundproof booth. Wearing headphones, you will be asked to listen and respond to a range of sounds. We will also perform a speech test and an objective measure of your middle ear function.

If you require hearing aids, your Audiologist will discuss the devices that best suit your needs and that are most appropriate for your hearing loss. When selecting the right devices, we will consider the degree of hearing loss, dexterity, lifestyle and budget.

Like all new things, you may take some time to adjust to wearing a hearing device. To help you get the most out of your new devices, Audiology Solutions offers you a 30-day trial period with your hearing aids. During this time, you will attend follow-up appointments and your Audiologist will be available to help you with any concerns.

We will ensure you are satisfied with your devices — if required, we can select another hearing aid or develop an alternative treatment plan for you. It is important to us that you experience the best outcome possible.

Our clinic provides ongoing maintenance and support for you and your hearing devices, including follow-up appointments and hearing aid servicing and updates. We’ll let you know when it’s time to come in for a checkup, but it’s important to be an active participant in your own ongoing care and maintenance — we’re always here to help if you have any issues between appointments.

Once you’re fitted with your hearing devices, it’s important to remember that outcomes will be different for everyone, depending on the degree and type of hearing loss. Be sure to attend all follow-up appointments so your Audiologist can monitor your progress and ensure you’re getting the most out of your devices.
