Rest assured knowing that we are following every precaution to ensure that we maintain a clean, safe and sterile environment for you. Your hearing appointment with us follows the social distancing and hygiene practices.
The quality of your hearing is vital to enjoying quality of life: staying active, staying engaged and maintaining relationships with those close to you.
Unfortunately, your hearing can be affected by a number of factors, from age-related causes to the side effects of illness.
It’s therefore very important to have regular checkups - and Amplifon offers free hearing tests that are a quick, convenient and easy way to get clarity on the health of your ears.
What happens during a FREE hearing test
Yes, free hearing tests are available for anyone over the age of 18. No referrals needed - so you can get started today by booking your appointment. There are over 300 Amplifon clinics across Australia, so our service is readily available to help you. You may be eligible for a range of hearing services funded by the government.
After you have booked your free hearing test at your local Amplifon clinic and you arrive for your appointment, here an overview of what you can expect:
If you do, you will be recommended to return for a comprehensive hearing test with an audiologist or audiometrist.
A free hearing test is the initial 20 minute test completed by one of our hearing care professionals, where the outcome of your test will help identify whether or not you have some form of hearing loss.
A hearing assessment, or comprehensive hearing test, is then recommended to complete if your initial free hearing test identifies hearing loss.
The hearing care professionals at Amplifon are happy to help you find the best hearing solution for you. They will tell you everything you need to know about the features and help you with the fit of your future hearing aid.
