for ear-giddiness/ vertigo related disorders. The centre further links with a large network of other
specialists for these multidisciplinary and complex disorders.

At the visit

If a hearing aid is chosen solely based on cosmesis or only a certain brand is shown, the performance
and satisfaction may not be optimal. It is not the most expensive aid that works the best, nor the
smallest. Individual preferences, hearing experience and medical history differs.

A full ear examination is first done to exclude ear wax or sinister ear conditions like deep seated
infections and tumors. Tinnitus and giddiness need to be managed for optimal hearing function.

Complete hearing tests will be tailored for newborns, toddlers, young children and adults. When
needed, a hearing aid evaluation and hearing aid trials with different brands is then done. FM systems
assistive listening devices are recommended to further optimize performance in school or noisy
environments. With disease progression or depending on personal needs and lifestyle, sometimes even
the best hearing aid may not be enough. Surgery may then need to be discussed. Multidisciplinary care
is coordinated for patients with speech therapy, auditory verbal therapy, development assessment and
educational assessment needs. This allows a one-stop hearing service for the holistic care of families and
patients.
