An audiogram is a graphic representation of your hearing test results. During your hearing test, you’ll be presented with sounds at different frequencies and intensities. Your clinician will plot the softest sound you can hear at each frequency on the graph. This will be used to determine whether you have a hearing loss, the degree of your hearing loss, and if necessary, your hearing aid options.
A hearing test is performed by an audiologist in our clinics. The objective is to find the softest volume level that you can hear. The test takes no more then an hour and is detailed enough to determine if hearing aids are required or not. Our audiologists will provide you with an explanation of the results and the effects it may have on your hearing.
An in-clinic comprehensive hearing assessment is provided to adults ages 18 and older at no cost. The results of this assessment will be reviewed in detail by a professional hearing healthcare provider. In-home hearing tests, workplace tests, children’s hearing tests, and audiogram record requests are available; however, they are subject to a service fee.
