Pediatric Hearing Services

Pediatric Hearing Services for Residents of Alaska

There’s nothing more important to a child’s positive development than their hearing.

From listening during school to playing with their friends on the playground, children need strong, healthy hearing to grow into successful, independent adults. If your child isn’t responding to verbal stimulus at home or has been struggling at school, a hearing test might alleviate some stress regarding whether your child needs their hearing looked at.

We’re not just audiologists – we’re parents, and we’d do anything to help our children as they grow. We understand the stress that can mount when you’re concerned about your child’s healthy development.

You can rest assured that with our comprehensive pediatric hearing services, your child will benefit from optimized hearing and a stress-free environment as our team puts you and your child’s needs first.

Why Does My Child Need a Hearing Test?

From birth, our children use their hearing to learn to talk, find out more about the world around them, educate themselves at school, and communicate with friends and family.

If their hearing is struggling, chances are that they’re missing verbal cues, falling behind in their education, and not paying attention when they need to be.

Signs of hearing challenges can be seen in newborn babies and addressed just as fast. We offer pediatric services from birth, including newborn hearing screening, pediatric hearing testing, and hearing aid fittings for children that ensure no stress or discomfort, so we can get the most exact results with your child’s well-being at front of mind.
