Houston Tinnitus Specialists: Certified Treatment & Relief

A TEXAS TINNITUS SPECIALIST YOU CAN TRUST

It is important to understand that if you believe you may have tinnitus, there is help available – but choosing the right medical provider is key. The American Tinnitus Association has developed a patient guide to navigating tinnitus, in which they urge patients to meet with a qualified audiologist if ringing in one ear or both ears persists beyond one week.

Furthermore, they encourage patients to consider the following when selecting a doctor for tinnitus:

Is the audiologist familiar with the most recent tinnitus management options currently available to the medical community?
What tinnitus therapy and treatment options are provided by the audiologist?
Does the audiologist have experience with determining the various causes of tinnitus?
Is the audiologist prepared to handle rare cases involving unique pre-existing conditions or concurrent symptoms?
Which masking devices, hearing aids, and other items can they provide for noise management purposes?
Is all medical advice based on the Clinical Practice Guideline for tinnitus from the American Academy of Otolaryngology?

At Memorial Hearing, we are confident that we can answer the above questions – and any others you may have – to your satisfaction.

For patients that are experiencing tinnitus, the search for effective treatment can be a difficult one.

Although some Houston audiologists have some standard knowledge of the common treatments and causes of tinnitus, it is one of the more uniquely complex conditions in the field of audiology.

How to successfully collaborate with various medical providers, include experts in head and neck surgery, ear, nose, and throat doctors, and general practitioners to achieve optimal patient results
The ways in which hearing problems, including hearing loss and decreased sound tolerance (DST) may be treated alongside tinnitus
