How do I know if I have a hearing loss?

Hearing loss will typically happen gradually.  Sometimes, it’s your family members that will mention that you are beginning to miss things, before you even notice.  If you experience any of the following, please contact us to book a baseline evaluation!

• You feel that people around you are “mumblers”
• You hear the person speaking, but need to ask for repetition.
• You smile and laugh at jokes, even though you may not have understood the whole thing.
• You need to ask for details of the meeting you just attended.
• You turn your TV or radio louder than your spouse or family members in the same room.
• You cannot hear the doorbell or telephone well.
• You find that it’s easier to understand someone if they look at you.
• You miss environmental sounds like birds chirping or leaves rustling
• You avoid some social situations because of the environment or amount of background noise
• You hear a ringing, buzzing or humming sound, especially when it’s quiet.
