Free Hearing Screening

A hearing screening is different from a hearing test. While a hearing test gives us a very accurate picture of your hearing ability and any deficits you may experience, a screening simply tells us whether your hearing is in good shape or may require further testing. Regular screenings are a great way to make sure that your hearing ability is where it needs to be, and we are proud to offer this service free of charge!

Comprehensive Hearing Examination

A comprehensive hearing test gives us an accurate picture of your current hearing ability, including any areas where you might have difficulty. We administer a battery of hearing tests, all of which are completely painless. If you do have hearing loss that indicates a need for hearing aids, we will recommend them after your hearing test.

Regular hearing tests can also help you catch minor hearing loss before it becomes an issue. This allows you to make the necessary adjustments in your lifestyle or hearing protection to ensure that you minimize further hearing loss going forward.

The Better Hearing Institute, a non-profit, advises that everyone get a hearing test at least once every decade until age 50, and once every three years after that. Those in high-risk professions or who have a higher risk of hearing loss due to their medical history should be tested even more frequently.

Hearing Aid Fitting

Whether you purchase hearing aids from us or already have a set that you purchased elsewhere, we can help you make sure your hearing aids are properly fitted. Fitment involves programming the computers in your hearing aids to match the needs of your individual hearing loss, as well as making custom earmolds if necessary.

You may need new earmolds if you lose or gain a lot of weight after getting your hearing aids. Either of these changes can change the shape of your ear canal such that “whistling” (feedback) can become an issue.

You may also need a new fitment if your hearing loss profile changes over time, which is common. If you’ve been wearing your hearing aids for a few years without an adjustment, a new hearing test might indicate a need to change the programming.

Hearing Aid Repair

Modern hearing aids are robust devices, and we offer premium hearing aids from the best manufacturers in the industry. Still, hearing aids spend most of their time in and around our ears, where moisture and environmental debris can take their toll, over time. It is common for most hearing aids to require a repair at some point in their lifespan.

We offer repairs in-house, which can usually be completed the same day you bring your hearing aids into the office. Some repairs may require us to return your hearing aids to the manufacturer, which can increase the time you spend without your hearing aids up to around 10 days.

Custom Hearing Protection

We offer custom-molded earplugs for a range of activities and professions. Custom hearing protection is the most comfortable, most effective, and best sounding option for hearing protection on the market today. Musicians, gun enthusiasts, motorsports enthusiasts, and more will enjoy the comfort and safety of a custom-molded set of earplugs. We also make swimmers’ earplugs, and in-ear monitors for musicians.

Assistive Listening Devices

Sometimes hearing aids by themselves are not quite enough to make sure you hear everything clearly. Assistive listening devices (ALDs) help to reduce the distance between your ears and a sound source, which can make the sound much clearer. Popular ALDs or “add-ons” include microphones that connect wirelessly to your hearing aids, TV adapters to stream the sound of your TV or stereo directly to your hearing aids, FM systems that allow you to hear a speaker more clearly, and others. Some people benefit greatly from ALDs, while others may not have much use for them. Talk to us about the ALDs that may be right for you!

Tinnitus

Tinnitus—that annoying “ringing” in the ears—commonly affects people who have hearing loss, but can also occur on its own. There are treatments available that help reduce the effect that tinnitus can have on your life. If you have bothersome tinnitus, make an appointment today!

  Very competent, friendly and attentive staff.  Joe Kopp has done a great job of adjusting my new Beltone Trusts which do an excellent job of managing background noise.  The phone app gives me the capability of managing and controlling my hearing aids in every changing environment.  I love having this ability. The Trust hearing aids have improved my experience while listening to music, playing the piano and singing.  I highly recommend Giraffe Hearing!
