The first audiology topic we’d like to highlight this month is tinnitus. Tinnitus is the perception of sound within the ears or head in the absence of an external sound. It is often descibed as ringing, buzzing or chirping.

If you or your loved one is experiencing tinnitus, contact UMMC audiology for a tinnitus evaluation with Dr. Chris Spankovich.
