Only the Best Hearing Aids
Prairieland Audiology has the latest digital hearing aids on the market today. We provide excellent hearing aid fitting service to our patients, first by diagnosing your hearing loss with an in-depth hearing test. This enables us to provide you with the best hearing solution. If a hearing aid is needed, we will evaluate your level of need and lifestyle goals, so that your technology will suit you perfectly.
We offer a wide range of devices that provide exceptional comfort and sound quality. Are you looking for hearing aids that are invisible when worn? Or feature the latest wireless technology that connects to your television or cellular phone? Are you looking for devices that are easy to handle and feature long battery life? We can help.
Convenient Hearing Tests
Have you ever wondered if your friends and family are going overboard when they say that your hearing is getting worse? Wouldn’t you like to find out for sure if your hearing is at a healthy level? It’s always a good bet to rule out the possibility with regular testing, since nowadays there is so much evidence to suggest the correlation between hearing loss and other health maladies, such as dementia, diabetes, and heart disease, to name a few.
If a hearing loss is suspected, an appointment with one of our certified Audiologists can be scheduled anytime for the purposes of testing and evaluation. Testing is painless, comfortable and safe. And it will give you a definitive answer regarding your hearing loss.
Tinnitus Treatment
Have you ever wondered why your ears ring? Tinnitus is not a disease, but a medical condition characterized by persistent ringing in one or both ears that can only be heard by the affected individual. It has also been described as whistling, hissing, buzzing, or pulsing in the ear. These sounds may come and go, but for most tinnitus sufferers, the symptoms produce a constant, maddening drone.
In many cases, the distressing combination of tinnitus and hearing loss can be relieved with hearing aids. Specially engineered hearing aids are now available, and they can restore ambient sounds and help fill Sound Voids™ to eliminate the effects of tinnitus.
