20 Pardon Me? If you find yourself saying that too often, you may have some hearing loss. According to the National Institutes of Health, one in eight people ages 12 years or older has some measurable degree of hearing loss in both ears. And men are twice as likely as women to experience hearing loss. If you have concerns about hearing loss, the best place to start getting answers is with your primary care physician, say physicians at University Hospitals Geauga Medical Center. Depending on your medical history, your primary care provider can advise you whether to see an audiologist or an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist. And for boomers who are Medicare eligible, a hearing test referral is a must for reimbursement. Although some hearing problems are genetic, there are certain workplace or recreational situations that can cause hearing loss. People who are at risk for hearing loss include: Factory workers, Musicians, Mechanics, Airline workers, Farmers, Hunters and Construction workers The following symptoms can indicate hearing loss: Difficulty understanding or following a conversation, Fullness, pain or pressure in the ear, Difficulty hearing the TV, Ringing, buzzing or other noises in the ears, Your friends and family mention your hearing problem or Difficulty with clarity of certain voices Call 440-285-6000 to make an appointment with a UH Geauga Medical Center primary care physician to have your hearing evaluated or download the UH Now app and schedule an appointment from your phone.
