Hearing Tests

At The Hearing Place, we offer four different options of hearing tests so you can receive a comprehensive hearing evaluation on your terms.

    • Self Test Kit: Our safe and accurate in-home comprehensive hearing evaluations can be taken with a Self Test Kit powered by hearX technology. The hearX Self Test Kit allows patients to take a hearing test remotely, receive counseling, buy and receive hearing aids and have them adjusted, without having to physically consult a professional.
    • In-Home Guided Test: Not comfortable taking a hearing test on your own, but not ready to leave the house? Our hearing specialists will come to you! We will come with a hearing test kit to test your hearing from the comfort of your home so you can achieve better hearing on your own terms.
    • In-Office Visit: Our Fort Collins office is well-equipped with the most technologically-advanced hearing testing, hearing aid maintenance, and other hearing device equipment to provide you with the best in-person experience possible.
    • Online Hearing Test: Our online hearing test is a quick and easy way to determine if you are suffering from hearing loss. The test takes less than 5 minutes to complete and might give you an answer you hadn’t considered before. Take the test now.

Hearing Loss Services

We offer many services that can help with various aspects of your hearing.

  • Earwax Removal: Our ear wax removal procedure takes 3-5 minutes and is completely pain-free and highly effective with the Earigator™, which combines the functions of both an otoscope and irrigation. Pressure controls ensure that the Earigator™ quickly removes even impacted cerumen, while never endangering the eardrum and avoids any caloric or vertigo side effects with self-contained temperature control.
  • Tinnitus Treatments: Tinnitus is the perception of noise in the ears or head when no external noise is present. The American Tinnitus Association lists hearing aids as a treatment option (see our hearing devices offered below). The clinical tools we use at our appointments to evaluate patients suffering from tinnitus include:
      • Comprehensive audiological evaluation
      • Speech recognition test
      • Pure tone audiogram
      • Tympanogram
      • Acoustic reflex testing
      • Tinnitus sound matching
      • Minimum masking level
      • Loudness discomfort level
  • Sudden Hearing Loss Counseling: When someone rapidly loses hearing when no injury or trauma has occurred, we refer to it as sudden deafness. A person experiencing sudden deafness, called Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SSHL), should seek medical attention immediately to receive proper and quick care. If you believe you or a loved one are suffering from sudden deafness (SSHL), we recommend you seek treatment as soon as possible. With proper medical care, about 50% of the people suffering from sudden deafness will regain their hearing within 7-14 days. Schedule your appointment today.

Hearing Devices and Accessories

Not only do we offer the services to improve your hearing, but we also offer the tools that will help you as well. We offer over 7 brands of receiver-in-ear (RIE) hearing aids, behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids, and even custom hearing aids. We also offer accessories for your hearing aids, such as noise protection, swim plugs, assistive listening devices, Bluetooth accessories, and batteries.
