Wellstar audiologists perform comprehensive ear testing. We provide expert treatment for hearing and balance. A personalized plan guides you through care and treatment so you can improve hearing and quality of life.
Expert Care for Hearing & Balance Conditions
Hearing loss and other ear-related conditions can have a widespread impact. These conditions make it harder to connect with family and friends. And, they can interfere with your performance at work or school. For young patients, hearing problems can impact their development. Without proper treatment, additional damage can occur.
You will undergo a series of tests in a comfortable environment. From there, a personalized plan guides you through care and treatment. If you or your child needs a surgical procedure, an ear, nose and throat surgeon that specializes in pediatric conditions will join your care team.
