- Comprehensive Hearing Evaluations
Pure-tone Audiometry: Hearing sensitivity or loss is quantified by using pure tones controlled by a dual-channel clinical audiometer and presented through insert earphones and a bone vibrator. Narrow-band masking noise is used when appropriate.
Speech Audiometry: Awareness of speech sensitivity, auditory discrimination of speech sounds, and hearing adequacy for everyday speech are evaluated with speech delivered through earphones and loudspeakers. Phonetically balanced work lists are presented to the patient via the clinical audiometer by monitored live voice or taped recordings.
Impedance Audiometry: The middle ear and the acoustic reflex are assessed with a clinical electroacoustic bridge, which can activate the acoustic reflex with either contralateral or ipsilateral test tones. Eardrum mobility and middle ear pressure are evaluated ipsilaterally.
- Hearing Aid Prescription & Fitting
After a comprehensive hearing evaluation Dr. Williams will give you her professional opinion on treatment for your hearing loss. This could include one or two hearing aids in many different sizes and technologies. Advanced Audiology dispenses all sizes available (behind-the-ear, in-the-ear, half shell, in-the-canal, completely-in-the-canal). We also deal with many types of technology (analog, digitally programmable, basic digital, supreme digital, and premium digital). No one technology suits the needs of every patient. Dr. Williams will help you find the solution that best fits your individual needs and objectives.
