THE CONSULTATION AT THE INITIAL APPOINTMENT
The initial consultation takes place in the convenience and comfort of your home. The hearing evaluation can be overwhelming for some people and for their families – and can sometimes stretch to sixty minutes or more. Treating hearing loss is a process of science, engineering, technology, and clinical medicine. It is also considered an “art” to treat hearing loss; skills are developed with years of experience! In order to develop the right treatment for each patient, first, there must be the proper diagnostic procedures using calibrated equipment called an audiometer that tests every aspect of your hearing, known as an audiogram. From there, it’s important to distinguish the different types of hearing loss, the degree of hearing loss ranked from mild to profound, and if a medical referral is recommended.
One of the most important tests I will perform is designed to assess your cognitive hearing, i.e., how well you understand words in quiet and with background noise. This line of testing helps me understand how well you hear, and how well you process words and conversation. For example: many people with a mild to moderate hearing age-related loss will typically score 50% – thus, they miss 50% of what is said on a daily basis.
The next test is a repeat, almost exactly as described, but performed at a volume and clarity setting ideal for the specific patient’s hearing loss. This second round of word testing is referred to as the patient’s “Hearing Potential.” Most often, the patient who formally scored 50% will now score 90% and even greater. The patient is fully aware that he or she performed significantly better with enhanced clarity.
Though the consequences of waiting too long to treat hearing loss can be dire, in these cases, the outcomes and expectations for treatment can vary. Once all the testing is complete, it’s my responsibility to review all the test results with you and your loved ones. These results are personal and can help a patient to better understand the difficulty he or she is dealing with on a daily basis. Interpreting the results can also be just as important for your family and loved ones to understand the degree of your hearing loss, “Hearing Potential” ability, and to gain a perspective on what you are going through and how much of a strain hearing loss can be.
A recommendation from your hearing evaluation test results will determine your unique medical treatment plan and help to initiate the journey toward improved hearing clarity and cognitive health. There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan. Part of your hearing evaluation is to validate individual improved “Hearing Potential.” If you are satisfied with the test results, verifying your hearing improvement, your custom hearing aid products are then ordered. Upon delivery and fitting of your new hearing aids, I will "re-verify" your “Hearing Potential” word recognition auditory results to compare the two evaluations, so you know exactly what to expect for hearing improvement! This procedure brings together predictable verification and greatly increases the likelihood of a successful fit as you experience hearing improvement.
