Our Services

A Doctor of Audiology is trained to do much more than fit hearing aids. Dr. Gresham provides a full range of hearing care services listed below:

• Hearing Aid Evaluations

We offer a wide selection of hearing aids, including digital processing and digitally programmable, from a variety of manufacturers. We will work with you to find the best solution for your hearing healthcare needs within your budget.

• Audiometric Evaluations: Adults & Pediatrics

Pure-tone Audiometry: Hearing sensitivity or loss is quantified by using pure tones controlled by a dual-channel clinical audiometer and presented through earphones and a bone vibrator. Narrow-band masking noise is used when appropriate.

Speech Audiometry: Awareness of speech sensitivity, auditory discrimination of speech sounds, and hearing adequacy for everyday speech are evaluated with speech delivered through earphones and loudspeakers. Phonetically balanced work lists are presented to the patient via the clinical audiometer by monitored live voice or taped recordings. 

Impedance Audiometry: The middle ear and the acoustic reflex are assessed with a clinical electroacoustic bridge, which can activate the acoustic reflex with either contralateral or ipsilateral test tones. Eardrum mobility and middle ear pressure are evaluated ipsilaterally.

• Ear Molds

Custom-made noise protection earmolds, Swim molds, Custom-made cellphone ear pieces. People who do not want water in their ear canals can have floatable swimmer's ear plugs made of a water resistant material which can even be made to change colors! 

If you ever need a repair,we can get your hearing aid repaired quickly at a reasonable cost and give you a loaner hearing aid to use until yours comes back.

• Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs): FM Systems

You may have certain communications needs that can't be solved alone by hearing aids. For example, when you use the telephone or listen to the radio, you still may have difficulty hearing clearly. 

Special devices have been developed to solve these problems. Assistive listening devices make specific desired sounds, rather than all sounds (in the surrounding environment) louder for more clarity.
