What is the difference between an Audiologist and a Hearing Instrument Specialist?
In Ontario, Audiologists are regulated health professionals holding Master’s or Doctoral degrees in Audiology. They have 6-8 years of post-secondary education and are qualified to diagnose complex auditory and vestibular disorders across all age groups, whereas Hearing Instrument Specialists primarily focus on adult hearing tests and dispensing devices.
Do I need a doctor's referral to schedule a hearing assessment?
No medical referral is required to book a diagnostic hearing assessment or consultation at any of our clinics. Patients can schedule appointments directly, though our team regularly collaborates with family physicians and ENTs when medical follow-up is indicated. Call, text, or submit an online request at your convenience.
