Hearing and Balance Services

Trauma, disease, medications or simple aging can result in hearing loss, dizziness and imbalance. Dizziness and poor balance can cause falls, which can be serious. Your ears are connected to a complex series of structures inside your head. These structures carry messages from your brain. If they are damaged, your ears won’t function properly.

This can lead to:

• Hearing loss
• Noises in your ears or tinnitus
• Loss of balance and dizziness

Hearing loss is one of the most common ear-related disorders and can impact daily living. Conditions that can increase your risk for dizziness and falls include:

• Neck pain
• Limited neck movements
• Ear infections and inner ear viruses
• Head trauma/post-concussion

• Neurologic disorders like
  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Stroke
  • Cerebellar dysfunctions

Our specialists can evaluate and diagnose your hearing and balance problem, and make recommendations, whether it involves a doctor’s consult for medication, surgical intervention or hearing aids, if necessary.
