We see children over the age of 4 for full hearing assessments; including pure tone audiometry, speech perception testing and middle ear assessments.
- A hearing assessment for children will take 30 – 60 minutes.
Hearing aids – If hearing aids are required children are usually referred to the free hospital service. We are able to fit hearing aids to children at Auckland Hearing if preferred.
Auditory Processing Disorder (APD)– Children with normal peripheral hearing but who are showing signs of Auditory Processing difficulties will be referred on for further assessment.
Children 0 – 5 years – can be seen at the Auckland University – School of Audiology in Glen Innes. Call (09) 923 9909 for an appointment.
