The Impact of Hearing Loss
Hearing loss can have a negative impact on both the psychological and physical well-being of children and adults. In children, hearing loss can delay speech, language, and cognitive development — making early detection and intervention critical.
In older adults, untreated hearing loss may cause a decline in physical, emotional, social, and cognitive functioning. For all ages, hearing loss can cause insecurity, frustration, anger, confusion, and isolation. Research also suggests a link between hearing loss and serious health problems such as high blood pressure, kidney disease, diabetes, and heart disease.
Since hearing loss may be due to a medical condition, our office provides both a comprehensive audiological and medical evaluation to determine the cause and best treatment for your specific type of hearing loss.
