We perform a comprehensive tinnitus evaluation that includes pitch matching, minimum masking levels, loudness discomfort levels, and residual inhibition. This, in conjunction with the hearing evaluation, supplemental testing, and medical evaluation by Dr. Holmes, helps determine the cause and best plan of action for treatment and maximum relief.
Due to the personal and unique nature of tinnitus, treatment is individualized. Although there isn’t a single cure for tinnitus, our team works with you to determine the best course of action to optimize your outcomes. Additionally, Dr. Holmes will work with you on any relevant medical treatments. If you or someone you know is suffering from tinnitus, make an appointment with us today.
