MDC audiologists provide world class hearing health care to patients of all ages. A complete audiologic evaluation is the first step to understanding hearing, the function of the auditory system, and functional hearing ability.

A variety of tests are used to provide an accurate and complete hearing and communication profile. Test procedures are selected based on individual needs and include a health history, visual inspection of the ears, pure tone air and bone conduction audiometry, and tests of word recognition, word understanding, speech-in-noise, middle ear function, and other specialized tests when needed.

Results and recommendations are reviewed in each session.

(Re)habilitation services can support optimized communication success through professionally guided resources and peer support. It is recommended that family members accompany individuals through the process. Both individuals and group sessions are available.

In-depth communication consultations include discussing hearing technology appropriate to an individual's hearing and lifestyle needs. Style, signal processing strategies, and manufacturer options are reviewed. Our philosophy is that a true partnership between patient and audiologist will result in better technology decisions. Services include selection, fitting, verification (probe-microphone testing), and validation. All are critical components in the optimal treatment of hearing loss using technology.
