Our audiologists, Bridget K. Block, Au.D. and Katie Klewin, Au.D. administer comprehensive hearing evaluations for both pediatric and adult patients.
The audiologists work closely with Dr. Freedman to arrive at the assessment of hearing impairment as well determination of site of the lesion in the auditory pathway. This can help determine what options are available to treat the patient’s hearing loss.
Our audiologists provide solutions for hearing impairments in patients of all age groups with use of aural rehabilitation and only the most premium hearing aid technology available. They also can create custom hearing protection in order to help prevent noise-induced hearing loss. They are well versed in new technological advances including wireless capabilities such as Bluetooth; in addition, many hearing aids can be re-programmed on site. Most hearing aid makes and models can be evaluated and repaired; the hearing instruments may need to be sent off site for repair.
Whether you choose to schedule time to sit down with one of our audiologists to discuss your current hearing aids, personal difficulties with communication or new hearing devices, they are here to help.
