The Ear
As we grow older, we are prone to hearing loss. Most hearing problems, however, (no matter what age) can be corrected, either medically, surgically, or by the use of today's modern hearing aids. To evaluate your hearing disorder, our audiologists will obtain a detailed study of your condition in the form of an audiogram or “hearing profile.”
Correcting hearing loss is much more than the casual prescription of a hearing aid. Our fully trained and Board Certified doctors surgically correct many forms of hearing loss such as otosclerosis, perforation of the ear drum, erosion of the middle ear bones, and persistent middle ear fluid. Other causes of hearing loss can be corrected by medical management or wax removal.
Dr. Thomas M. Jung is the only fellowship trained Neurotologist in the region specializing in:
- Cochlear Implants in Children and Adults
- Vestibular Nerve Surgery for balance disorders
- Skull Base Surgery and treatment of tumors of the inner ear balance nerves
Clinical services are provided at our office for newborn through geriatric populations, and include audiometric evaluation, auditory brainstem response, otoacoustic emissions, hearing aid selection, fitting and repair, and cochlear implant evaluation and mapping. All testing is performed with the newest technology and state of the art equipment. All types of conventional, programmable and digital hearing aids are available.
