HEARING CARE SPECIALISTS ARE YOUR PARTNERS IN HEARING HEALTH CARE. If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms of hearing loss, tinnitus, or balance issues, or if your hearing needs have changed,

call us for an appointment today at 610.866.2929.

Does everyone seem to mumble when they speak? Do you often ask people to repeat themselves? Is it hard to understand speech in noisy environments? Do you have ringing in one or both ears?

If “yes” marks the spot for any of these questions, then you, like an estimated 360 million people worldwide, may have hearing loss.

The great news? Most hearing can be effectively treated, and your local audiologist — an expert in hearing, tinnitus, and balance disorders — is clinically trained to do just that.

Hearing care is just as important as regular dental visits, annual physicals, and vision checkups, but how do you get started, and what do hearing care specialists do? Here are some ways they can help you maximize your hearing health for a better quality of life.

Evaluating and Diagnosing Hearing Problems Your local hearing care specialist can perform diverse tests to determine the state of your hearing and identify the type, severity, and cause of any hearing difficulties.

Treating Hearing Loss With professional expertise, advanced hearing technology, and knowledge of your lifestyle and listening needs, hearing care specialists provide hearing aid solutions tailored for you.

Treating Tinnitus Hearing care specialists can significantly reduce the impact of ringing in the ears and other symptoms of tinnitus, which affects more than 50 million Americans.

Diagnosing and Treating Balance Issues Hearing care specialists can get to the bottom of dizziness and poor balance, getting you back to feeling better.
