Living with constant buzzing or ringing in your ears that just won’t go away? You may be experiencing tinnitus which is characterized by the perception of sound when no external source actually exists. The severity of tinnitus varies with each person, and it can negatively impact your personal relationships and even interfere with your enjoyment of daily activities.
Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT), counseling, hearing aids, relaxation methods, or a combination of all of these are among the tinnitus treatment options we utilize for tinnitus suffers.
Hyperacusis is classified as an uncomfortable, heightened sensitivity to everyday sounds. For those living with this, normal sounds like the television, eating in a restaurant, or a simple conversation, can be annoying and even painful. The severity of hyperacusis varies for each individual and may lead to other problems including migraines, daily discomfort, and ear pain. Take action and schedule an appointment at our Mesa hyperacusis center to get your hyperacusis under control. Here, you can receive a full plan that will outline your treatment options.
Noticing a change in your hearing? You should schedule a hearing test with Dr. Pitrone. Our evaluation is designed to provide your audiologist with important information about your hearing health. Hearing tests include a comprehensive review of your medical history, a thorough ear examination, and diagnostic tests to determine which frequencies you may struggle hearing.
In addition to a comprehensive hearing test, Dr. Pitrone uses her years of experience to help you find the perfect hearing aid. Choosing the right hearing aid is often a life-changing experience, but only if you end up with the right one. Another crucial factor is working with an audiologist committed to creating the perfect fit and ongoing, exceptional programming. You will find both at Sound Relief Hearing Center with Dr. Pitrone.
Wax Removal
Ear wax is often the culprit with many hearing health issues. Dr. Pitrone is very skilled in the removal process, and every ear is a little different. Depending on the amount of time it takes, we charge $50 - $100 per ear to remove wax. We also suggest scheduling an appointment for this procedure.
