Our Services
At The Center for Audiology, we offer complete diagnostic evaluations for patients of all ages. Hearing disorders have many associated symptoms. Our services will allow us to discover the extent of your hearing loss and come up with a solution to help you hear better. From tinnitus to clogged ears, we can help you with all aspects of your hearing health.
Hearing Tests in Houston, TX
If you think you may have hearing loss, the first step is a hearing test. We provide comprehensive audiologic evaluations to gather all necessary information about your hearing loss. The results of your hearing test will allow us to determine the cause of your loss and the degree, so we can help you find a successful management plan. We offer hearing tests for adults and children ages 5+.
During your hearing exam we will perform a series of tests, including:
- Pure-tone testing
- Middle ear impedance testing
- Speech understanding in quiet and in noise
- Otoacoustic emissions
- Tinnitus hearing test
- Real Ear Measurements
- Forensic Audiology
Cognivue: Cognitive Screening
Hearing ability is the number one modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline. People with untreated hearing loss experience a 30%-40% greater decline in cognitive abilities and an increased risk of developing dementia. Because your hearing ability is so deeply connected to your brain health, we offer Cognivue screening.
Cognivue screening is a five-minute, self-administered test that evaluates three cognitive functions: memory, visuospatial, and executive function as well as reaction time and speed processing. This screening is a major step toward identifying cognitive decline caused by depression, anxiety, and hearing loss. To learn more about Cognivue, please contact us.
Cerumen Removal
Cerumen (earwax) can build-up inside the ear canal, causing discomfort and muffled hearing. If you wear hearing aids, you may experience impacted earwax that is bothersome. Our audiologists can safely and effectively remove impacted earwax at any of our office locations. If you have clogged ears due to earwax, contact us to schedule an ear exam.
Tinnitus Treatment
Tinnitus is the perception of sound in your ears or head when no external sound is present. If you hear a buzzing, hissing, ringing, or whistling sound in your ears, you are not alone. Tinnitus affects millions of Americans. Some people experience tinnitus on a temporary basis, for only a few seconds at a time while others may experience it constantly. Tinnitus itself is not a disease, but rather a symptom of another condition. Tinnitus can be caused by:
- Hearing loss
- Earwax build-up
- Loud noise exposure
- Stress
- Meniere’s disease
- Head or neck injury
- Certain medications
At our hearing center we can perform a tinnitus test during your hearing exam to discover the cause and severity of your tinnitus. We also offer some solutions, including special hearing aids that can help distract your brain from the symptoms of tinnitus. Contact us today if you would like to stop the ringing in your ears.
Lenire Tinnitus Technology
We are excited to offer Lenire, a groundbreaking tinnitus treatment device approved by the U.S. FDA. Using bimodal stimulation, Lenire combines soundscapes through wireless headphones and tongue pulses customized to your hearing profile to help your brain stop focusing on tinnitus.
With just two relaxing 30-minute sessions per day, Lenire can decrease your perception of tinnitus over time. Out of 500+ patients across three clinical trials, 83% would recommend Lenire to others with tinnitus.
