Discover the Services Offered at Gaudreault & Rhéaume

An audioprosthetist clinic is much more than just a supplier of hearing aids. Choosing a clinic means choosing a team to support you, understand your needs, and offer personalized services. At Gaudreault & Rhéaume, we offer a comprehensive range of high-quality services.

Free Hearing Test for All

The first step in taking care of your hearing is understanding your current health condition. In fact, a hearing test is necessary so that we can offer hearing aids that suit you.

Have you noticed some signs of hearing loss? Have you already been diagnosed or do you have a file somewhere else? No matter your situation, we offer free hearing tests in Montreal and Laval. This will help you get an accurate picture of your hearing health with no obligations.

During this screening, we carry out a visual exam of your ears, then proceed with various audiometric tests in a soundproof booth. Mainly, the tests will require you to:

  1. Indicate when you hear a sound. This pure-tone audiometric testing allows us to evaluate the frequencies you can perceive.
  2. Repeat words to evaluate your understanding of speech at different volumes.

Once the tests are done, we show you the audiogram, explain the results, and discuss potential solutions with you.

 

Custom Hearing Solutions, for All Ages

Each person is unique, and hearing loss can occur at any stage of life. At Gaudreault & Rhéaume, we take the time not only to understand the state of your hearing health, but also your personal situation, preferences, and lifestyle.

Our clinic offers a range of modern and discreet hearing aids, including several devices that are rechargeable (instead of disposable batteries). Each has its own advantages and has been designed for different user profiles.

Behind-the-Ear (BTE) hearing aids are often the most popular. They are placed behind the ear and work for all types of hearing loss. They are easy to hold and adjust, and much more discreet than they were many years ago. They are also available in several colours.

We offer Behind-the-Ear hearing aids with receiver in or out of canal (open fit).

Invisible-in-Canal (IIC) hearing aids are also gaining popularity for how discreet they are: this small device fits inside your ear canal and is completely invisible.  However, they are only appropriate for mild to moderate hearing loss.

Finally, we also offer intra-auricular hearing aids, designed using moulds of your ears. They are comfortable and appropriate for people who have limited dexterity.

In addition to hearing aids, we also offer a wide range of Bluetooth accessories, assistive listening devices, and hearing protection earplugs. During your appointment, we evaluate your needs to offer the best solution and accessories.

Supporting the Development of Children

Hearing loss can sometimes be difficult to detect in children, depending on its severity. However, it is essential to take hearing problems seriously, even if they are mild, as they can significantly impact language development, academic performance, and social skills.

At Gaudreault & Rhéaume, we offer solutions that are easy to manipulate and maintain, with a large choice of colours to choose from so that your child can wear their hearing aid with confidence. We offer reassurance and support to make your youth comfortable and we provide all the information needed.

Comprehensive Services, From Hearing Aid Fitting to Long-Term Follow-Up

Once the hearing aids have been ordered and adjustments have been made, our team remains available to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have. We schedule follow-up appointments to ensure that everything is going well in your new everyday routine with your hearing aids.

We also offer regular appointments to service your hearing aids and ensure they work well and are calibrated properly.

Remember that our team is always there if you experience any issues. For example, if your hearing aid seems not to be working properly anymore, if it has been damaged, etc. Do not hesitate to contact us for hearing aid repairs.

 

Solutions for Tinnitus

Tinnitus – the buzzing, whistling, and other persistent noises in your ear – can affect your quality of life. Fortunately, there are solutions to help you reduce the symptoms or live with them.

At Gaudreault & Rhéaume, we can determine if your tinnitus is caused by hearing loss. It is a common cause and sometimes people do not suspect they have it. Often, being exposed to loud noises at work, having an infection, or having experienced physical trauma can cause tinnitus.

The audiologist, ENT doctor, and audioprosthetist often work together to treat tinnitus. The Gaudreault & Rhéaume team helps you organize your appointments to ensure follow-up at every step.
