Hearing Test in Goshen, NY

Are you considering a hearing test but not sure what to expect? If you have noticed changes in your hearing — at any age — healthcare providers recommend having your hearing evaluated regularly. Hearing tests are non-invasive, fast, and painless, and they provide peace of mind about your hearing health. Schedule your hearing test with us at Goshen Speech & Hearing Center.

What to Expect During Your Hearing Test

1. Case History

We’ll begin with a short consultation to understand your hearing concerns. Since hearing loss can have many causes — such as ear infections, allergies, colds, earwax buildup, or noise exposure — we’ll ask you a few questions to help rule out possible factors. We’ll also review any medications you’re taking and your recent sound environment.

2. Ear Examination

Next, we’ll examine your ears using an otoscope, a small device that allows us to look inside the ear canal. This helps us check for blockages, injuries, or other conditions that could be affecting your hearing.

3. Hearing Tests

You’ll then take a series of hearing tests in a quiet, sound-controlled room:

Pure-Tone Test: You’ll listen to sounds at different frequencies and volumes through headphones and press a button when you hear them.
Speech Recognition Test: You’ll repeat short phrases or words to measure how well you understand speech at different volumes.

Additional tests may be performed if needed to get a complete picture of your hearing.

Why a Hearing Test Matters

Even if your test results show no hearing loss, you’ll gain the reassurance that your hearing is in good health. If a hearing deficiency is detected, early treatment can improve communication, social interaction, and long-term cognitive well-being. Protect your quality of life by making a hearing test part of your regular health routine.
