Hearing Care Services in Milwaukee & Brookfield
Puzzled about your hearing loss? The Hearing Professionals can help! With all the options you have for improving your hearing why take chances? We provide you with the best audiological services and care, and can help you understand the real differences between hearing aids. We believe there’s more to better hearing than just providing you with a hearing aid.
Audiological Evaluation
An audiological evaluation consists of several different components: a case history, physical examination of the ears, pure tone test, speech audiometric test, tympanopmetry and reflex testing.
Hearing Aid Evaluation and Dispensing
The Audiologist will review each component of the audiological evaluation to obtain a profile of an individual’s hearing abilities and needs. The Audiologist will then help the patient to decide which hearing aid (if any) is most appropriate for your specific hearing loss, lifestyle and budget.
When a hearing aid is provided for a patient, we make sure each patient understands all aspects of care, use and maintenance of the device(s) and communication strategies for a happy home.
Hearing Aid Testing and Repair
If you are having trouble with your hearing aid and think it may be broken, we will be able to test it, and possibly repair the aid in the office. If we cannot repair the aid, we can send it to a company to have it repaired (per the patient’s request).
Real-Ear Measurements
These are measurements taken to determine if your hearing aid is working the way it should be. These measurements are made while the hearing aid is in your ear.
Earwax (Cerumen) Removal
Sometimes earwax can be taken out at the office. If not, we will recommend drops that will help or a referral to an ENT (Ear Nose and Throat physician) for cerumen management.
Assistive Devices
In some cases, hearing aids are not the complete answer to communication difficulties. There are many other devices available to help you in your most difficult listening environments. These devices include television listening systems, special doorbells, vibrating alarm clocks, amplified telephones, mobile phone solutions, and many others. We encourage you to talk to us about all of your listening difficulties.
Follow-Up Visits
We believe that any hearing aid not being worn is UNACCEPTABLE! Patients should always schedule a follow-up visit with our office to assure maximum success with your hearing aids. There is never an office visit charge for follow-up visits or cleanings if you purchased your hearing instruments from us and are still in warranty.
Medical Referral for Examination and Treatment
When audiological test results indicate a medical condition, patients are referred to their Primary Care Physician or to an ENT (Ear Nose and Throat) Doctor for examination and treatment.
Hearing Aid Batteries
We sell Power One hearing aid batteries which we have found to last longer than any other battery on the market. If you are an established patient with The Hearing Professionals we can mail batteries to you upon request.
Pre-Employment Evaluation
An abbreviated hearing evaluation for economy of time and money; includes pure-tone test and completion of forms for employment, military or monitoring purposes.
