Hearing Evaluations
We offer complete hearing evaluations to better understand your hearing health. Our tests help determine the type and level of hearing loss you may be experiencing, so we can recommend solutions that are tailored to your lifestyle and needs.
The “best” hearing test depends on your situation. A full evaluation is the most accurate way to measure hearing ability. Common tests include:
-
Pure-tone audiometry
-
Speech audiometry
-
Tympanometry
-
Otoacoustic emissions (OAE)
-
Auditory brainstem response (ABR)
These tests together provide the most reliable diagnosis and help guide the right treatment.
You can do a basic self-check for hearing loss by noting symptoms such as:
-
Difficulty following conversations
-
Increasing the volume on the TV or phone
-
Frequently asking others to repeat themselves
There are also hearing test apps and online screenings that can provide a general idea of your hearing ability. However, these tests are not a substitute for a professional hearing evaluation. If you suspect hearing loss, it’s best to schedule a comprehensive test with a hearing aid specialist.
Online tests can be a helpful first step, but they are limited. They typically measure whether you can hear certain tones, but they cannot evaluate speech clarity, diagnose the type of loss, or detect medical conditions. Results can also vary depending on your device or background noise. If you’re concerned about your hearing, schedule an in-person evaluation for an accurate, personalized assessment.
Diagnostic Services
We offer comprehensive diagnostic testing to assess your hearing and uncover any underlying conditions. Our team ensures accurate results and guides you toward the best course of action.

Tympanometry for middle ear health

A sensation of fullness in your ears

Hearing Aid Services
From choosing the right device to long-term care, Rose Hearing Healthcare Centers is with you every step of the way. Our hearing instrument specialists provide expert fittings, adjustments, cleanings, and repairs to ensure your hearing aids deliver the clearest sound possible.
Hearing Aid Fittings
A precise fitting makes all the difference. We program each device to your unique hearing needs, test the fit for comfort, and use real-ear measurement technology to confirm that sound levels are exactly where they should be. Follow-up visits are included to fine-tune performance as you adjust.
Most fittings take one to two hours. If a custom earmold is needed, the process may extend by a week or two. After your initial fitting, we schedule check-ins to make sure your hearing aids continue to meet your needs.
Over-the-counter hearing aids exist, but they are only suitable for adults with mild to moderate loss. A professional hearing test ensures your device is customized for your hearing profile, rules out medical concerns, and provides the best chance for long-term success.
Hearing Aid Repair
If your hearing aid isn’t working properly, we offer quick and reliable repairs to restore its performance. From minor fixes to more complex issues, we’ve got you covered.
-
Weak or no sound
-
Distorted or muffled audio
-
Whistling or feedback
-
Physical damage or broken parts
Minor issues can often be fixed the same day in our office. More advanced repairs may require sending your device to the manufacturer and can take a few days to a few weeks.
Some problems (like replacing batteries, cleaning filters, or drying out moisture) can be handled at home. But for anything more complex, it’s best to see a professional to avoid further damage.
