Comprehensive Assessment and Evaluation of Hearing Loss
Comprehensive Assessment and Evaluation of Hearing Loss
Hearing loss develops at such a slow pace that you probably won’t notice the day-to-day changes that accumulate over an extended period of time.
Consequently, recognizing that you are experiencing a hearing loss can be tough, and making a commitment to seek help can be quite a challenge.

PHC Tennessee’s Hearing Assessment Process
Our comprehensive, step-by-step hearing evaluation ensures every patient receives accurate insights and personalized care
Intake
Your hearing care professional will start your hearing evaluation with a conversation about you.
By discussing your health history, the symptoms you are experiencing, your lifestyle (vocation, social life, hobbies, and activities, etc.), we are able to identify risk factors and causes for your hearing challenges as well as gauge its impact on your lifestyle and quality of life.
Physical Ear Inspection
After intake, we’ll conduct a physical inspection of your ears using an otoscope.
This helps us pinpoint any physical obstructions that could be contributing to your hearing loss, such as accumulated earwax, inflammation, growths, damage to the ear canal, or damage to the eardrum that might block sound from reaching the inner ear.

Hearing Tests
Once your ears have been inspected for any physical damage, we’ll conduct a series of non-invasive and painless hearing tests to help identify the type of hearing loss you’re experiencing as well as its severity. Tests used during our comprehensive hearing assessment may include Tympanometry, Pure Tone Audiometry, Speech Audiometry, Bone Conduction, Test Additional Tests (OAE, ABR, etc.)
Results
Unlike most medical tests, your hearing test results are available as soon as testing is finished, which gives us an opportunity to discuss your results during the same visit as testing.
Your hearing care professional will use your audiogram (printed graph of your results) to show the frequencies and volumes where you are struggling to hear well.
As we review this information with you, we’ll explain what each value means and provide you with solutions to either correct your condition or prevent it from getting worse.
We see ourselves as partners with you on a journey to better hearing, providing you with solutions that meet your unique hearing needs while taking your lifestyle, budget, and personal preferences into account.

The Values That Guide Every Decision, Every Encounter and Every Patient Experience

"Rich has been aware of his hearing challenges for the last 50 years. As if it were yesterday, Rich recalls, “When attending Michigan State University, 1970 thru 1972, I went to the Audio Department for testing. My test results showed I had a response curve that looked like a ‘W’ across the frequency range..."

"One of the earlier signs of hearing loss is needing to turn the TV volume up. While this may seem like a simple solution, it can leave family members frustrated and cause friction. David admits, “Having the volume turned up loud on the TV and radio has not been pleasant.” And while he says his wife..."

David N.
Patient
"Upon visiting PHC Tennessee, he recalls he was “surprised how professional and knowledgeable she [his audiologist] was. David’s new hearing aids have been a great success. He says, “I can hear crickets and spring peepers now. When asked what others in a similar position should do, David recommends, “Go see them soon.”"
