Welcome to The Audiology Center
Hearing Care by Hough specializes in hearing rehabilitation for mature adults.
The prevalence of hearing loss is astounding. Roughly 10% of the general population is affected by this disease with well over 30% of those over the age of 65, and over half in their eighties. It’s the third most prevalent chronic disease among the aging. So we call hearing loss the silent hurt.

Professional Consultation
Our 'needs assessment' helps you, the patient, and Dr. Hough create an individual profile that not only identifies who and where you may not be hearing well, but establishes where we are, where we're going and if we arrive at your goal of better hearing
Ear Exam
Otoscopy is used to inspect the ear canal and eardrum. If indicated, Dr. Hough might remove earwax and debris from the ear canal. Diseases of the middle ear may be observed through the translucent eardrum.
Audiometric Testing
The audiogram uses speech and tones presented to the listener to test hearing and understanding. A full assessment by a professional is needed for an accurate diagnosis prior to rehabilitation
Hearing Aid Fitting
If indicated, hearing aids may be ordered during your intitial visit and fitted a couple of days later. There is a $100 non-refundable fitting fee, but the cost of the hearing aids is fully refundable during a month long trial if you don't appreciate significant benefit.
