The diagnostic hearing exam

Beyond the Pathway, every appointment includes a thorough diagnostic hearing examination — otoscopy, audiometry, speech evaluation, and (when indicated) immittance testing.

Please bring a close relative — spouse, adult child, or close friend — to your appointment. A support network is invaluable when making decisions about your hearing.

  • Otoscopy — visualize the ear canal, remove wax if needed
  • Audiometry — identify type, shape, and degree of loss
  • Speech evaluation — quiet and noise testing at varied volumes
  • Immittance evaluation — eardrum movement and acoustic reflexes when indicated
  • Education & recommendations — the conversation that turns results into a plan
Why test regularly

Hearing tests aren't just for emergencies.

Experts recommend a hearing test every 10 years until age 50 — and every 3 years after.

  • Hearing aids decrease listening-related fatigue.
  • Untreated mild hearing loss is linked to a 2–3× increased risk of falls.
  • Hearing aid use can improve working memory in adults.
  • Untreated hearing loss correlates with emotional loneliness.
  • Hearing aids improve social engagement and activity.
  • Early detection means more options — for you and your loved ones.

How often should I have a hearing test after age 50?

For adults over 50, a hearing test every 3 years is a useful routine baseline. Schedule sooner if you notice a change in hearing, ringing, or understanding speech.

Hearing Test FAQs

Here are quick answers to common hearing test questions. If you want, we can also help you schedule an evaluation.

How long does a hearing test take?

Most hearing tests take about 45 to 60 minutes. We start with your history, check your ears, then run a hearing exam in a quiet booth.

Do I need a referral for a hearing test?

No. You can schedule directly with our clinic. If you have insurance questions, our team can help you understand your options.

What happens during a hearing test?

We look at your ears, ask about symptoms, then measure how well you hear tones and speech. We explain results in plain language and talk through next steps.

Is a hearing test painful?

No. A hearing test is safe and non-invasive. You will listen to sounds and respond when you hear them.

Should I remove earwax before a hearing test?

If you think wax may be a problem, let us know. We can check for wax first, because buildup can affect results.

What if my hearing test shows hearing loss?

We will review the results and discuss options such as hearing aids, medical referral when needed, and tinnitus support. You will leave with a clear plan.

What should I bring to a hearing test?

Bring any prior hearing test results, a list of current medications, and notes about situations where hearing is difficult. If you use hearing aids, bring them and their chargers. A spouse, adult child, or friend can join you if helpful. We will review your concerns, check your ears, complete the testing, and explain your results in plain language.
