Great teams are built outside the office too, right? 🎳

Put us in a bowling alley and suddenly it’s less about schedules and roles and more about laughing at the gutter balls, cheering the wins, and just being together.

And that connection doesn’t stay at the lanes. It comes back with us. Into how we support each other, how we listen, and how we show up for every patient who walks through our doors.

What a great team bonding night at McCurdy Bowling Centre!

Kelowna, where do you take your team to connect?

April 4th is Auditory Processing Disorder Awareness Day, and we want to talk about something that trips a lot of parents up.

Your child passed their hearing test. So why do they keep missing instructions? Why do noisy rooms wipe them out? Why does reading feel so hard?

Their ears are doing exactly what ears are supposed to do. The tricky part is what happens after, in how the brain makes sense of sound. That's auditory processing, and when it's not working well, it doesn't show up on a standard hearing test.

Children with APD often struggle to follow directions (especially in noise), get easily distracted, zone out in class, have trouble with reading and spelling, and get frustrated in ways that look like behaviour problems or attention issues. They hear just fine. Listening is where it falls apart.

The good news: an APD assessment with one of our audiologists can figure out exactly what's going on. And there are real, practical ways to help, from at-home training programs to in-clinic therapy to a small remote microphone that brings the teacher's voice directly into your child's ear in the classroom.

If this sounds like your child, it's worth looking into.

You don't need a headache to have a migraine.

Vestibular migraines can show up as vertigo, dizziness, motion sensitivity, ear pressure, or just that feeling that the ground isn't quite where it should be. Sometimes for minutes. Sometimes for days. Often with no head pain at all.

It's one of the most common causes of dizziness and one of the most frequently missed, partly because the symptoms look like so many other things.

Audio-vestibular testing is one of the key tools for figuring out what's actually going on. If you've been dizzy, or experiencing strange visual disturbances, and nobody has a good answer yet, it might be worth looking at this.

We can help. 🔗 lakesidehearing.com/vestibular-migraine

Voting is open for Best of the Okanagan, and Lakeside Hearing is listed in the “Hearing Aid Store” category this year.

That category name doesn’t really reflect the kind of care we provide. Lakeside Hearing is a full audiology clinic with two Doctors of Audiology and three Audiologists on our team. Our work includes comprehensive diagnostic hearing assessments, tinnitus care, and individualised treatment planning, along with the careful fitting and long term support that hearing technology requires.

A big part of what we focus on is how people process sound and how listening interacts with the nervous system. Hearing care is not only about making sound louder. It’s about clarity, listening effort, and helping people stay engaged in conversations and environments that matter in their daily lives.

If our team has helped you better understand your hearing, supported you through the process of choosing hearing technology, we’d be grateful if you took a moment to vote for us.

✨Bonus: The Capital News is also running a voter giveaway. When you cast a vote, you’ll be entered to win a Classic Wine Tour for 6 at your choice of West Kelowna, East Kelowna, or Lake Country wineries. You can vote once to enter, and go back daily for additional chances to win. 🍷

Because we can't share links to media websites in Canada, you can find a link to the contest on our website: https://lakesidehearing.com/vote-for-us/

Thank you for supporting local, independent hearing care! 💙

Happy International Women's Day from the team at Lakeside Hearing.

Hearing care is more personal than people expect. You're telling someone that something about them has changed, that the world sounds different than they think it does. That takes skill, but it also takes a kind of care that can't be faked. These women have both.

Women-owned and locally loved, Lakeside was founded by Nichole Sorensen, who has been practicing audiology in the Okanagan since 1999. The reason people come back, refer their parents, bring in their partners, is the team. It's always the team.

So today we're celebrating them. Not just for being good at their jobs, which they absolutely are, but for making a vulnerable thing feel safe. That's harder than it sounds.

Happy IWD. We're glad you're here. 🩷

March 3 is World Hearing Day. This year's theme is "From communities to classrooms: hearing care for all children", and it hits close to home for us.

Lakeside is one of the only private audiology clinics in the Okanagan testing children younger than 5. We see babies from 12 months, preschoolers who think it's a game (it kind of is), and school-age kids who've been quietly working harder than anyone realized.

Kids don't say "I can't hear." They get quieter. They tilt their head. They get labeled distracted or behind when really they're just missing pieces of what's being said.

If something feels off, trust that feeling. A hearing test is a good place to start.

It’s International Cochlear Implant Day. 💙

Cochlear implants are hearing devices for children and adults with severe to profound hearing loss in one or both ears, especially when traditional hearing aids are no longer providing clear access to speech.

For some people, this technology opens up new pathways to sound, communication, and everyday participation.

If this sounds like you or someone you love, a conversation with your audiologist can help clarify whether cochlear implant candidacy is worth exploring.

Our team can guide you through the next steps and help arrange a referral to St. Paul’s Hospital for a full surgical and audiological assessment.

We are honoured to be featured in Canadian Audiologist, the official publication of the Canadian Academy of Audiology.

This article explores the real world diagnostic challenges of horizontal canal BPPV and introduces the Kurtzer Hybrid Maneuver, a practical approach designed for the complexity clinicians see every day. Balance concerns rarely arrive neatly packaged, and careful assessment, clinical reasoning, and experience matter deeply when someone feels dizzy, off balance, or unsure of their body in space.

Being included in a national publication grounded in advocacy, education, and research reflects how seriously we take our role as audiologists and how committed we remain to advancing care beyond the basics. It also speaks to the collaborative spirit of a profession that keeps learning, questioning, and refining how we support people through hearing and balance changes.

Thank you to the Canadian Academy of Audiology for continuing to elevate audiology across Canada, and to Canadian Audiologist for creating space for thoughtful, clinically relevant work.

Good balance care begins with careful listening and taking the time to understand what is really happening.
