Whether you are seeking diagnostic testing for yourself, your child, or a loved one, we are committed to delivering precise, effective, and personalized evaluations.

Our audiology services

Our certified doctorate- and master-level audiologists specialize in a wide range of diagnostic procedures to assess hearing and balance function. We provide thorough and accurate testing for adults, infants, and children to ensure early diagnosis and effective treatment planning. We offer the following advanced diagnostic evaluations:

  • Comprehensive Audiometric Evaluations: Detailed assessments to measure hearing sensitivity and identify potential hearing loss.
  • Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE): Measures the inner ear’s response to sound, often used for newborn hearing screenings.
  • Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR): A non-invasive test that measures how the auditory nerve and brainstem respond to sound, often used for infants and individuals who cannot participate in conventional hearing tests.
  • Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR): A test used to estimate hearing thresholds in individuals who cannot provide behavioral responses.
  • Sedated ABR for Children: Specialized testing for young children, performed under sedation to ensure accuracy and comfort.
  • Videonystagmography (VNG): A diagnostic test that evaluates inner ear and central motor function by measuring eye movements, used to identify balance disorders.
  • Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs): Tests that assess the function of the vestibular (balance) system by measuring muscle responses to sound stimulation.

Our team uses advanced diagnostic technology to provide clear and reliable results, helping patients and their physicians develop effective treatment plans.
