“I Never Really Hear Silence…”

Tinnitus can become such a large part of peoples lives. It seems to take away the quietness or silent moments of the day. Relaxation can be difficult with the constant presence of ringing or buzzing in the ears. I have heard these comments very often and can feel the negative connection that the tinnitus has had on their life. It’s our practice goal to become a help for people that find their tinnitus affecting their “peace and quiet”.

We begin with a full case history, assessment of the tinnitus attributes, and thorough subjective questionnaires. In addition, a comprehensive hearing and tinnitus assessment in the sound room is very important. There are many options to consider when treating tinnitus whether a patient has a hearing loss or not. We have found success in many ways and are pleased to be available to help with those suffering from these sounds. Our goal is to help people have moments of silence and to live with their tinnitus.
