- Then she will go over what hearing loss is and how it can affect your cognition and overall health.
- Teri will begin the hearing evaluation by first performing an ear exam. She will look inside your ears for any signs of impacted earwax, which she can remove in-office.
- After she’s looked inside your ears, Teri will test your hearing ability and speech recognition.
