Why do I LOVE audiology?

Because I love a challenge. I enjoy defying the odds and breaking barriers.
As technology advances, our ability to help others expands.

With permission, I’d like to introduce my music loving, hearing impaired patient.

Patient Concern: Has a strong desire to hear sharp, clear, crisp, natural sounding musical tones while playing his guitar.

Treatment and Follow Up Care: Patient is taking advantage of a one week demo experience in premium hearing aid technology. I have programmed the hearing aid based off of real life experiences. We fine tuned and modified special programs for enhanced musical experiences.

Results: Patient is LOVING what he hears! Great work with remarkable results.

Looking to have the same results? Need specialized care for specific outcomes? We’ve got you! Call our office and get scheduled to learn more. Our team will work closely to ensure your goals are not just met, but exceeded!

Hearing Fact Friday 👂

Dental equipment and handpieces frequently produce sound pressure exceeding the safety threshold of 85 db (American Academy of Audiology).

Repeated exposure to noise this loud destroys our hair cells in the cochlea of the ear, which leads to multiple hearing problems: tinnitus (the regular presence of buzzing, ringing, or rattling sounds, even when there is no external source causing these sounds to occur), hyperacusis (ordinary sounds are irritable or unbearable), and sensorineural hearing loss (diminished intensity of conversation and other sounds, sound distortion, and difficulty understanding complex sounds).

🦇 Hearing Fact Friday 🦇

Did you know bats have super-hearing?

Most species can detect frequencies between 15 kHz and 200 kHz—far beyond what humans can hear. For comparison, we only hear up to about 20 kHz, which means most bat calls are completely inaudible to us!

Bats use these ultrasonic sounds for echolocation, giving them detailed echoes to navigate and hunt at night. Some species, like the vampire bat, can even hear low-frequency sounds, such as the breathing of sleeping animals.
