Hearing Services – Evaluation & Testing
At CHSC, we believe that life is improved by successful communication. We are dedicated to helping people hear better so they can fully enjoy the people and activities that bring meaning to each day.
Free Online Hearing Screening
Please note that this does not replace an in-person hearing evaluation, however, it may indicate the need for further hearing testing and evaluation.
Hearing Testing
Audiologists at Cleveland Hearing & Speech Center can evaluate the hearing of children and adults with a hearing test. We perform different tests to determine if a hearing loss is present or not. If there is a hearing loss we will determine:
- The amount (or degree) of hearing loss
- The type of hearing loss
- If the hearing loss is permanent or temporary
- How the hearing loss will likely affect the individual in their daily life
- What treatment options are available
You can expect to be with us for about an hour while we take a thorough case history to understand your concerns and then customize the testing and solutions to meet your needs. You can count on continuity of care from a team dedicated to your well-being.
Test results are available immediately and the audiologist will explain the results to the patient and/or the family. Which tests are given will be determined by the patient’s chief complaint and areas of concern. CHSC conducts a variety of hearing tests including:
- Otoscopy
- Middle Ear Testing/Tympanometry
- Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE)
- Audiometry
- Speech Testing
- Central Auditory Processing - Pediatric only
- Cochlear Implant Services- Adult only
Cochlear Implant Services
