What’s the difference between an audiologist and an ENT doctor?

Audiologists focus on evaluating and managing hearing and balance issues using non-surgical methods. ENT doctors treat medical and surgical conditions of the ear, nose, and throat.

Are hearing tests covered by insurance?

Most insurance plans cover hearing evaluations, but hearing aids may require separate coverage. Our team can help you check your benefits.

How do I know if I need a hearing aid?

If testing shows hearing loss, your audiologist will help determine whether a hearing aid is appropriate for your lifestyle and communication needs.
