If
you notice a loss in your ability
to hear what you used to be able
to hear or your family member (child
or adult) appears to have hearing
problems, an Audiologist can help.
After a thorough assessment
and evaluation, the Audiologist
can offer a variety of treatment
options or refer you to a physician
(should the condition require medical
or surgical treatment).
