Audiology is a specialized branch of healthcare focused on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of hearing and balance disorders. Audiologists are trained professionals with expertise in evaluating and managing auditory and vestibular conditions.
An audiologist, with a Doctor of Audiology (AuD) degree, is a clinical professional who assesses and treats disorders related to hearing and balance. These specialists are skilled in the anatomy and physiology of the auditory and vestibular systems. Common conditions managed by audiologists include hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, balance disorders, auditory processing disorders, and complications arising from cochlear implants or hearing aids.
Audiologists typically undergo rigorous education, completing a doctoral degree in audiology from accredited programs. Clinical training includes rotations in hospitals and specialized clinics, preparing them for diverse patient populations and complex cases. Many audiologists pursue additional certification or fellowship training in areas such as pediatric audiology, vestibular assessment, or cochlear implant rehabilitation.
