Hearing Center of Hawaii – Your prescription for better hearing!
At Hearing Center of Hawaii, we offer the very best in service. Our audiologists use specialized equipment to obtain accurate results about hearing loss. These tests are typically conducted in sound-treated rooms with calibrated equipment. We are trained to thoroughly inspect the eardrum with an otoscope, conduct diagnostic audiologic tests, and check for hearing problems amongst a host of others.
Hearing loss is caused by medical problems about 10% of the time. Audiologists are educated to recognize these medical problems and refer patients to ear, nose and throat physicians (known as otolaryngologists). Most persons with hearing aids and audiologists are knowledgeable about the latest applications of hearing aid technology, but the average person is not.
Let our audiologist help you hear more clearly with some of the services we offer:
- Complete diagnostic audiological testing
- Individualized hearing assessments & recommendations based on your communication needs
- Choice of hearing aids & styles
- Specializing in advanced digital, virtually invisible hearing aids
- Assistive Listening Devices
We can perform a hearing evaluation and hearing aid fitting for you. During a hearing evaluation we will take a detailed case history regarding your hearing health. Our audiologist will ask questions and perform a physical examination of your ear to assess the general condition of your ear canal and eardrum. Next, we will conduct a diagnostic hearing evaluation. You will listen to various pure tones through insert earphones in a sound proof booth. We will assess the softest level that you can hear these sounds. You will also be tested on how clearly you understand and recognize words. After the testing is complete, we will review the results with you. If a medical condition is discovered or suspected. If the test results indicate you would benefit from the use of hearing aids, we will discuss various options most appropriate for your hearing needs.
