Assessing your hearing
An audiogram is created from your hearing test results and shows the hearing process visually. It can tell the hearing aid dispenser what type of hearing loss you may have and the extent of the loss.

Many people experience permanent hearing loss in the particular pitch-range of sounds that let us understand speech. These high-frequency sounds common in children’s and women’s voices, as well as speech sounds such as ‘s’, ‘ch’ and ‘sh’ are often the first ones to be lost.
Rather than being a case of ‘hearing’ or ‘not hearing’ someone speak, it is more a case of someone understanding speech clearly so that people don’t seem to be mumbling. With cutting-edge digital hearing aids, this problem can be addressed.
By assessing your hearing the hearing aid dispenser can clarify your needs, your expectations and the things you prefer. Then we can work together with you to choose the best hearing aids to suit your needs and lifestyle.
