AUDIOLOGY SERVICES CROTCHED MOUNTAIN offers audiology services to people of all ages, from infants to seniors. We specialize in difficult-to-test children with genetic and developmental conditions. Initially, an audiological assessment is conducted to determine the hearing status of the patient and the extent of the problem. Based on the results of this evaluation, recommendations are made to the patient and his or her family about the choices available for improved hearing and communication. The audiology clinic also dispenses, modifies, and repairs a variety of hearing-related products. An in-depth orientation for the patient and his or her family is conducted to assure the proper use and care of the device. Subsequently, follow-up contact is made to assure that the client is benefiting from the treatment in his or her unique listening environment.
