What is included in a full hearing consultation
Once you have booked a hearing consultation with a team member from one of our practices across London, below is what you can expect on the day of your appointment:
• Consultation and Medical History. One of our highly experienced Audiologists will run through some important aspects of your medical history and hearing health. We will spend time discussing your symptoms, hearing history, areas in your lifestyle where you experience difficulties hearing, as well as other related issues such as family history, previous noise exposure and issues relating to ear wax or tinnitus.
• Video-otoscopy. We will examine your ear canal and ear drums using our specialist video camera to detect any obvious issues or obstructions within the ear. We can display this on screen should you wish to see. We will save the image in your medical record to allow us to compare the health of your ears on every visit.
• Pure Tone Audiometry. We will carry out Air -Conduction, Bone-Conduction and Masking in our soundproof booth. We can identify both the severity and nature of the hearing loss.
