WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT
WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT
A Warm Welcome
Our friendly team will greet you with a smile and make sure you feel comfortable from the moment you arrive. We strive to create a calm, welcoming atmosphere where you can relax and feel confident in your care.
Thoughtful Consultation
Before any testing begins, your audiologist will spend time learning about your hearing history, lifestyle, and any challenges you’ve been experiencing. This helps us understand your goals and tailor our recommendations to your needs.
Comprehensive Hearing Evaluation
Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we’ll complete a full hearing assessment to measure how you hear across different tones and environments. The process is quick, comfortable, and provides a complete picture of your hearing health.
Clear Guidance & Next Steps
After your evaluation, your audiologist will review your results, answer your questions, and discuss personalized solutions — whether that means hearing protection, tinnitus management, or hearing aids. Together, we’ll choose what feels right for you, with no pressure or rush.
How long will my first appointment take?
Your first visit usually lasts about 60–90 minutes. This allows time for a detailed consultation, a complete hearing evaluation, and a thoughtful discussion of your results and next steps.
