克里斯蒂康复医院-听力学

“和玛丽·霍希一起工作真是太棒了，她为我失聪的女儿付出了太多。”世界杯赛时间表

“我的评估是针对过去3个月的平衡问题。听力学诊所3个月前就被预定了。Dena Hall是听力学家。在测试的时候，还有一个学生在那里协助。基本上是她做的测试。在任何测试开始之前，办公室经理进来确保我知道测试的自付费用是265美元。一旦我说我明白了，测试就开始了。并不是所有的测试都按照指示完成的。我知道会有听力测试，但没有。没有解释为什么没有做听力测试。 I could not lay flat with my head off the side of the bed. So more testing was not done. No effort from the student or the audiologist to do much for accommodations. The testing was difficult for me. I felt disoriented and uncomfortable throughout the whole. As Dena said, "we are not hear to make you comfortable." After the testing was completed, I was told I was "normal" for people in my age group. My head was still feeling heavy and my balance was worse than when I arrived for the testing. I thought if I was normal feeling unsteady and off balance, there were a lot of people "my age" wondering around Wichita that were not feeling or were unstable and off balance. I asked how long before the unbalanced feeling would last and was told my the student it should wear off in a couple of hours. My question was if it didn't wear off, what then. "Oh, it will." Again I asked what if it didn't, what then. Dena said, "I don't know." What a comfort! NOT! One or two conditions were ruled out. When I suggested to the audiologist that I was not dizzy (as she continually said) and the way my head felt was inside my head, would an MRI be helpful. She said after my suggestion perhaps seeing a neurologist for evaluation might be helpful. No suggestion or referral made as to who. I feel I wasted my time and my money for this testing. There was no consideration of my diagnosis of ataxia or bone spurs in my neck. Very disappointing. It is sad to think this is the only type clinic where this testing is done in Kansas. ”
