Tinnitus Treatment

The initial consultation takes up to an hour. You will present your concerns to the clinician who will then ask you further questions in order to best plan out a treatment strategy. A hearing test is also included.

Tinnitus consultation is only performed by a number of our clinicians as we require them to obtain a Tinnitus Management Certification from Widex. 

The consultation will be performed by a licenced Audiologist or Hearing Instrument Specialist who is trained and certified in the management or treatment of tinnitus.
