Hearing Tests in Gainesville, VA
We provide comprehensive hearing tests for the people of Gainesville and D.C. These services are diagnostic medical tests and are used to differentiate between hearing loss due to a medical condition and those due to noise exposure, genetics, or the normal aging process. All our testing is done in a sound treated booth and consists of pure tone sound testing, accuracy to speech understanding, and your ability to understand speech with competing noise.
The first step to identifying and treating hearing loss is a hearing test. Don’t wait any longer, schedule yours today!
Live Speech Mapping
Live speech mapping is a test used to help during the hearing aid fitting process. Live speech mapping uses probe microphones and real-time speech to allow the patient and their family members to immediately see and understand the benefits of hearing aids and fitting adjustments.
Tinnitus Management
Commonly known as “ringing in the ears,” tinnitus can range from mildly annoying to debilitating. Tinnitus is when you hear a ringing, buzzing, humming, whooshing, or whistling sound in your ears or head when no external sound is present. We offer solutions to help alleviate the ringing in your ears and can help you overcome your symptoms of tinnitus.
Hearing Aid Fittings and Consultations
We work with many different manufacturers to offer a wide range of hearing aids. After we’ve evaluated your hearing, we can recommend hearing aids that will be most helpful for your individual hearing loss and your needs.

Cerumen Removal
Earwax, medically known as cerumen, is a natural part of healthy ears. The purpose of earwax is to keep the ear canal lubricated and protected against dust, dirt, and other tiny particles by pushing them out of the ear canal. Although cerumen is natural, it can build-up, becoming impacted and uncomfortable.
When this occurs, you should never stick anything in yours, such as a cotton swab, to remove earwax as you can push the wax further into the canal, causing a larger issue. If clogged ears due to earwax is bothering you, contact the team at Audiology and Hearing Aid Center of Gainesville.
We can safely and efficiently remove cerumen with our Earigator, the world’s most advanced self-contained ear irrigation system. The Earigator nozzle flushes body temperature water into the ear canal, dislodging impacted earwax. This method is pain free, quick, and highly effective. If you have built-up earwax that is causing hearing difficulties, contact us about our Earigator cerumen management system today.
