Your hearing health is just as important as your vision or your annual physical examination with your doctor. Left untreated, hearing loss can lead to social isolation, feelings of depression and interpersonal issues that can affect your home, work, and social life.
Hearing health isn’t commonly screened by family physicians and often isn’t discussed, so you may not be aware that you need a hearing test.
Your first hearing test is especially important to set a baseline for your hearing health, so that any changes can be tracked over time.
We recommend that you book a hearing test if:
At Wavefront Centre, a hearing test is $75 for adults and includes a detailed 1.5 hr assessment of your hearing ability, speech understanding ability, and communication needs. Hearing tests for children are available at our Tricities location. The cost for a pediatric hearing assessment and report is $125.
Wavefront Centre for Communication Accessibility is the operating name for Western Institute for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, a registered charitable organization.
