Hearing Loss – Diagnosis

Hearing Disorder

People who assume and fear a hearing disorder should first visit a doctor, more specifically an otolaryngologist or otologist.

The doctor will determine whether a hearing problem exists, what might be the cause of it, and how it can be treated.

Diagnosis

Tests to diagnose hearing loss may include:

  • Physical exam
  • General screening tests
  • Tuning fork tests
  • Audiometer tests
