HEARING
Do you have trouble hearing over the telephone? Do you have to strain to understand conversations? A hearing aid may help, but it may not be the only answer since hearing loss can also be a symptom of many medical conditions.
Dr. Damask and her Audiologist collaborate to diagnose and treat hearing problems for people of every age.
Hearing loss can occur at any stage of life, and can be caused by a variety of conditions such as exposure to loud noise at work or as a result of aging. Hearing loss is also a symptom or side effect of more than 100 diseases such as diabetes or multiple sclerosis.
If you think you may have hearing loss, only an ear, nose and throat specialist working with a certified audiologist can diagnose the exact cause and provide medically sound treatment, including a hearing aid if one is necessary.
