Audiology evaluations are a series of tests to determine whether hearing loss is present and, if so, measure its type, degree, configuration and underlying cause. There are a wide variety of hearing aid manufacturers and types of hearing aids available; luckily, our expert audiologists are here to help.
Your audiologist will check the physical fit to make sure your devices are comfortable; they will then be programmed and adjusted based on your hearing loss and lifestyle needs. Regular exposure to a harsh environment means hearing aids will occasionally encounter problems. If your devices need servicing or repair, we can help.

At Valley Audiology we have been helping people with their hearing for over 30 years. Hearing loss is an isolating condition keeping people from connecting with family and friends. We find great joy in educating our patients and seeing them take charge of this condition that is hindering their happiness.
Assistive listening devices (ALDs) are portable systems that help individuals with hearing loss communicate more effectively. Unlike hearing aids, which amplify sounds, ALDs work by separating speech from background noise. This allows the person with the hearing impairment to hear more clearly. Some ALDs are used in conjunction with hearing aids, while others work as standalone devices.
If you are experiencing hearing loss, odds are good that you'll benefit from a hearing aid. But choosing the right one is no simple task. Today's hearing aids are smaller and more feature-packed than their predecessors, offering an array of options. Narrowing the choices down can be tough, but there are a few important things you should take into consideration before choosing a hearing aid.
Hearing aids have improved greatly with the advent of digital technology. If you're picturing big and bulky devices with questionable sound quality, you'll be pleased to learn today's instruments are smaller, more comfortable and provide sound that is more natural. They are available in a variety of sizes and styles, so finding one that appeals to your lifestyle needs and cosmetic preferences should be easy.
Hearing aid technology has improved drastically over the past couple of decades. Early devices relied on vacuum tubes and bulky batteries, but today's instruments take advantage of digital signal processing, microchips and computerization. Keeping track of the latest technological features can be challenging, but we'll cover a few of the more popular options here.

At 48 I experienced a neurological illness that resulted in unilateral hearing loss. Valley Audiology guided me through a very confusing time and helped get my hearing and my new aid working in a way that allows me to hear clearly without overamplification that can set off my neurological issues. In 2020, my other ear started experiencing hearing loss and I again turned to this fabulous clinic. Its not just a matter of throwing in a HA and hearing again, there is titration and adjustment of different pitches of sound that the specialist here help account for. The adjustments they offer in followup

Debbie is so personable, helpful and knows her subject. She was able to address my concerns and embellish with additional helpful and pertinent information and tips.
She also and pleasantly accommodated our needs and was very helpful all around.
Is there an on line tutorial to review again all the information she told me about and walked me through. I retain visually and in actually doing. Spoken is my most difficult to retain.
Debbie is wonderful.

For me hearing aids are a very personal issue and item. The entire staff at Valley Audiology are totally professional and knowledgeable yet they are patient and attentive to my questions and concerns. I recommend them without hesitation. Would a big box store have been less money? Maybe, but when it comes to my own health and well-being I want value, not cheap. Valley Audiology is a valuable part of my hearing and health care regimen.
