Did you know? Your hearing actually changes long before you notice it! 🦻

If you work in noise, this is why regular hearing tests are one of the best ways to prevent long-term, irreversible damage. Regular tests can also stay ahead of age related changes to your hearing.

At Audiology First, our assessments go beyond basic screenings—learn more about our speech-in-noise testing, and other comprehensive assessments on this month’s blog!
Stay ahead of hearing loss. Protect your communication, confidence, and quality of life.
