Marlowe MD is committed to the detection and treatment of hearing loss and vertigo symptoms. Our Sarasota, Florida center is fully equipped to perform a number of audio and balance examinations to determine the extent, location, and magnitude of your hearing loss. If we identify hearing loss during a consultation, we will provide you with a range of tools necessary to improve your symptoms. These tools include digital hearing aids, implantable devices, and assistive listening devices.
Who Can Benefit From Audio / Balance Testing?
As a gradually progressive condition, hearing loss can go undetected for a long time. This is why inquiring about audio and balance testing early on can go a long way in stunting hearing loss progression. Regular hearing tests for adults take less than an hour to complete and can provide a baseline to measure further hearing changes. In addition to helping identify and address hearing loss, these tests can help us detect the early onset of other health conditions. These include cardiovascular disease and diabetes, for example. Some of the symptoms that indicate an immediate need for a hearing test include:
- Slurred speech
- Tinnitus
- Difficulty hearing
- Dizziness / Vertigo
Audio / Balance Tests and Diagnosis
Occasional moments of imbalance and vertigo are normal. However, when those unsteady feelings last a long time or feel particularly disorienting, they can be indicative of a balance disorder. Symptoms may include the feeling of vertigo and a sensation of moving when sitting or lying down. Nausea, anxiety, hearing loss, and tinnitus may accompany this feeling. At Marlowe MD, our physicians use the most sophisticated diagnostic techniques to help you find the cause of your symptoms. After determining your condition, we will do all we can to help restore your balance.
