Hearing Tests for Everyone

It is not uncommon to learn of a loss of hearing capabilities in a child or a grown-up. In most of the cases, it is seen that the patients were unaware of their condition. It has been reported that near about 77% of adults in Canada did not report to a physician when having problems in hearing. Lack of awareness leading to delay in treatment may cause serious problems later.

So, do you feel that you are facing slight difficulty in hearing? Or are you increasing the volume of your TV or radio? If so, then you should immediately visit one of our hearing test centres in Peterborough or Marmora.

Some common signs of hearing loss are given below:

  • If you are speaking louder than is usually required even in a less crowded place.
  • Are you finding it difficult to understand the words uttered by your friends, family, or colleagues?
  • Are you slowly becoming dependent on one ear?
  • Are you unable to clearly hear conversations over the telephone?
  • Do you experience the sensation of buzzing or ringing in your ears?

We, at The Ear Depot, have the latest equipment for conducting hearing tests. Before conducting the hearing tests we converse with our clients to understand their daily experience and the work and/or community involvement they do. It helps us in providing solutions that will actually help our clients. It is a combination of clinical methodology and real-life experience. Depending on your condition we recommend regular hearing tests at our centres in Peterborough and Marmora.

For more information or query about hearing tests, you can visit our clinic at Peterborough or Marmora.

Hearing Tests are as easy as 1…2…3…

1. Our Initial Meeting

All hearing tests begin with a conversation.
We want to get to know you better and find out…
—
“If you have difficulty understanding conversation?”
or
“If people seem to mumble a lot?”
—
This helps us understand what you’re experiencing day in day out, so we can offer a real solution to make conversation easy, again!

2. Checking Your Hearing Levels

As a lifestyle picture begins to unfold, we then evaluate you hearing ability through several audio tests within our sound proof booth.
It’s actually kind of fun!

Our specialists will determine what degree your hearing levels are at, and guide you to the next step in the process.

3. Hear It For Yourself

Based on our clinical results and your real life experience,
we will provide a full explanation of your hearing health

and

if a hearing impairment is present we will show you what it sounds like to hear speech clearly with a properly fit set of hearing aids.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Whenever possible it is always best to bring a family member or friend.
It is also important you bring your health card.

Do I need a doctor referral?

Not at all. Our Hearing Instrument Specialists are authorized practitioners regulated by the Ministry of Health to professionally fit hearing aids.

Testimonials

More than just us talking…take a minute read what others are saying.

I am absolutely thrilled with my hearing aids. Brenda and Matt made the whole process extremely comfortable, even though I was nervous. Their expertise and professionalism reassured me that I made the right decision in choosing them, and I'm very impressed with the follow-up care they provide to make sure everything is working well. I highly recommend them!

It's been years since my ears began to ring (2011). It began with my left ear. At first it was quiet, but it continually grew louder, eventually effecting my right ear as well. Distraught with the idea of having to live with this ringing in my head 24/7, I began to research if there was any means of relief. Reluctantly I went in to have a few hearing tests done. But as soon as Matt from The Ear Depot placed the hearing instruments in my ears, and initiated the white noise sound, designed to reduce my tinnitus, I felt INSTANT relief! What once was an extremely annoying ringing - causing a complete wear down of my emotional being in those quiet moments at home - was now replaced with an incredibly calming effect that's helped mask that relentless sound in my head. If you suffer from tinnitus, I strongly recommend having your ears checked at The Ear Depot. They will help you through this, I promise!

My experience at the Ear Depot has been very satisfying. Their quality of service is excellent, personalized service, attention to detail in addressing any concerns I may have, and I never feel rushed as they take their time to answer my questions. My confidence in the Ear Depot leaves no doubt in my mind when recommending them to my friends.

- Eleanor Noble, Peterborough, ON

Hi Matt, I would like to express how helpful you have been, from giving me a hearing evaluation test when I just walked into the office, to a recommendation on the type of hearing aid best suited for me, which you had in stock and was able to set me up with a set of hearing aids on the spot. You were extremely courteous and took the time to answer all my questions, guaranteeing me that you would make adjustments any time I feel is needed just by dropping into the office. Glad I made the choice of deciding on The Ear Depot.

- Arlene Kurahashi, Peterborough, ON

The staff are excellent and extremely knowledgeable. Thank you for making the process of getting my hearing instruments so smooth.
