A hearing evaluation lasts 60 to 90 minutes. The audiologist will ask about your hearing concerns, noise exposure history, and medical history. Testing takes place in a soundproof booth and includes pure-tone audiometry (beep test), speech recognition testing, and middle ear function testing (tympanometry). Results are shown on an audiogram. If hearing loss is found, the audiologist will explain the type and degree and discuss options. For hearing aids, a separate fitting appointment (60 minutes) involves selecting devices, taking ear impressions or scans, and programming the aids to your hearing profile.
