Auditory is one of the most important senses we have as it helps us to communicate, remain connected to others and to enjoy the life-giving sounds we hear every day. Most people take little notice of early indicators of hearing problems because they assume it is just part of growing older or that it can be dealt with in the future.

A hearing test is a medical test that is used to determine the ability of an individual to perceive various sounds, tones and frequency of sounds. This is normally done by an audiologist, who is a professional that has the training of detecting and treating hearing loss issues.
