What happens during the individual tinnitus appointment?

During your appointment, you will meet with the tinnitus audiologist who will take a detailed history and may perform a diagnostic hearing evaluation. Together you will discuss the management options best suited to your needs including sound therapy devices.  You will also have time to ask the tinnitus audiologist any questions you have about tinnitus, hearing loss and decreased sound tolerance.  The initial appointment is 1 to 1 ½ hours long.

Follow-up appointments are booked to monitor progress and to ensure that the management plan is working well for you and does not require any adjustments.  These appointments are between 30 minutes to 1.5 hours long.  We are able to accommodate out-of-town patients by arranging some of the follow-up appointments as phone follow-ups.

What do I need to bring to my appointment?

Please bring the following items to your appointment:

• You will be sent a questionnaire pertaining to your tinnitus that you are asked to complete digitally prior to arriving at your appointment.
• Any hearing aids or instruments that you use
• A list of any medications and supplements that you are taking

You are welcome to bring a family member or friend to your appointment.
