About the Service
The Audiology Service is run closely with its ENT colleagues covering the whole of the north NHS Highland and Western Isles areas. The Audiologist carries out a range of tests on adults and children to determine the presence, nature and extent of hearing loss and balance disorders, enabling accurate clinical diagnosis in a range of hearing related conditions.
A further role includes the long term management and rehabilitation of the hearing impaired and those with tinnitus many of whom require the support of hearing aids/communication equipment and counselling with respect to their hearing loss or tinnitus.
