We offer solutions for the most common symptoms associated with a wide range of ear, nose and throat disorders.

Tinnitus - The signs and symptoms of tinnitus include noise in the ears such as ringing, roaring, buzzing, clicking, hissing, or whistling. Diagnosis of Tinnitus - Your doctor will review your symptoms and medical history and perform a physical examination of your ears, head, and neck. 

Treatment for Tinnitus - Dependent on the causes and symptoms can include:

• Removing wax blockage
• Hearing aids
• Noise suppression
• Medications
• Behavioral treatment helps you to change the way you think and feel about your symptoms, and include:Tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) or Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)

Tinnitus Prevention - Tinnitus can be prevented by:

• Wearing over-the-ear hearing protection when exposed to loud sounds
• Regular exercise
• Limiting alcohol, caffeine ,and nicotine

Hearing Assessment Tests - Common hearing assessment tests include the following: Pure-tone testing, Bone conduction testing, Speech testing (word recognition), Tympanometry, Acoustic reflex testing, Auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing and Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs).

Hearing Assessments for Infants and Children -  It is recommended that all infants and children undergo periodic hearing assessments. Children may be born with a hearing condition or it may develop later in childhood. Hearing is essential to the emotional, cognitive, and social development of infants and children. Left untreated even a mild hearing loss can affect a child’s language and speech development. 

Outcome of Hearing Assessment Tests - The results from your hearing assessment tests will determine both the extent of your hearing loss and whether it is temporary or permanent.  A customized treatment plan can then be created, which may include options such as medication, hearing aids, cochlear implants, or surgery.
