About tinnitus care
Part of Ear, Nose, and Throat
Our approach to tinnitus care
You will first receive a comprehensive hearing evaluation, followed by a consultation with one of our ear, nose, and throat (ENT) doctors (otolaryngologist). It is imperative to obtain medical clearance from a physician to rule out any ear- or hearing-related disease or disorder that may be the underlying cause of your tinnitus and that may necessitate medical attention and/or intervention.
Your ENT doctor will determine if you need further medical attention. Once your medical clearance is obtained, our tinnitus coordinator will schedule your tinnitus counseling and management session.
As part of your tinnitus counseling and management session, we will evaluate your tinnitus symptoms prior to discussing current treatments and management options, including their potential advantages and limitations. It is important to recognize that these management procedures and treatments are not intended to cure tinnitus. Rather, they are designed to assist you in developing coping strategies to better adapt to the symptoms. Please be aware that the success of any tinnitus management approach depends on active participation.
