Hearing Services

Hearing plays a vital role in communication and overall well-being. Our center provides comprehensive hearing assessments to diagnose and manage hearing concerns, including:

 

• Pure Tone Audiometry and Speech Audiometry
• Play Audiometry
• Impedance Audiometry
• Tinnitus Matching
• Video Otoscopy

 

Advance hearing care solutions are also offered and designed to enhance hearing clarity and improve overall quality of life.

 

• Real Ear Measurement (REM) Technology – Ensuring optimal hearing aid performance, REM allows for precise customization of hearing aid settings by measuring sound levels directly within the ear canal for personalized and accurate fitting.

 

• Hearing Aid Fitting & Trial – We provide a comprehensive hearing aid fitting process, ensuring comfort, proper amplification, and clear sound quality. Patients can also take advantage of a trial period to experience the benefits of hearing aids before making a commitment.

 

• Cochlear Implantation Services – For patients with severe to profound hearing loss, cochlear implant evaluations and programming is available, providing an effective solution for those who do not benefit from conventional hearing aids. Our specialists guide patients through the entire process, from pre-surgical assessment to post-implantation rehabilitation.

 

Balance Disorder Evaluation

For patients experiencing dizziness or balance disturbances, an advanced diagnostic system is used to record involuntary eye movements (nystagmus). This allows our specialists to accurately determine whether the condition is related to an inner ear disorder and recommend appropriate treatment options.

 

Newborn Hearing Screening & Portable ABR Testing

Early detection of hearing loss is critical for a child’s development. MakatiMed’s ENT center advocates for newborn hearing screening using the Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) test to identify potential hearing issues.

 

A portable Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) machine allows the performance of a hearing assessment in any setting—including the comfort of your home.

 

Nasal Endoscopic Procedures

Board-certified ENT specialists conduct detailed evaluations for patients experiencing:

 

• Nasal congestion
• Reduced sense of smell
• Snoring and sleep-related breathing issues

 

Using nasal endoscopy, the nasal function is assessed to identify potential obstructions, ensuring accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.

 

Speech and Swallowing Unit

The Speech and Swallowing Unit provides specialized diagnostic procedures to assess vocal cord function and detect minute abnormalities that may affect voice quality and speech.
