CAPD Testing in Pasadena

We offer thorough Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) evaluations to assess how a child’s brain processes auditory information. Following testing, we provide detailed reports and practical recommendations tailored to home and school environments.

4. Ordering, fitting, and setup of FM systems

5. Education on proper use and care of assistive technology

6. Collaboration with parents, teachers, and school-based teams

Our goal is to provide clear, evidence-based guidance that supports each student’s unique learning needs. We work closely with families and educators to ensure recommendations are practical, effective, and easy to implement in the classroom. Because CAPD testing is a highly specialized area with only a few audiologists highly skilled and experienced in this field, appointment availability is limited and scheduled based on the audiologist’s calendar. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we are committed to providing expert care tailored to each child’s needs.

Educational audiology and CAPD testing are available by appointment only at our Pasadena office.

Referral for Tinnitus Management

Information for Physicians, Hospitals, and Healthcare Providers

Chronic tinnitus can significantly affect a patient’s quality of life, sleep, concentration, and emotional well-being. Many individuals with persistent tinnitus benefit from early audiologic evaluation and evidence-based tinnitus management strategies, including hearing aid–based therapy and sound management. At Doctors of Hearing, Inc., we work closely with physicians and healthcare providers to support patients experiencing chronic tinnitus and tinnitus-related distress. Our clinic provides comprehensive audiologic evaluations and individualized tinnitus management plans designed to help patients reduce the impact of tinnitus on daily life.

Why Referral for Tinnitus Management Is Important

Tinnitus is often associated with hearing loss or reduced auditory input, which can lead the brain to increase neural activity within the auditory system. For many patients, this contributes to the persistent perception of ringing or buzzing sounds. Audiologic intervention can help by: 1. Identifying underlying hearing loss and providing hearing aids and sound therapy options when appropriate; 2. Offering tinnitus counseling and management strategies; 3. Supporting patients who experience sleep disturbance, concentration difficulties, or tinnitus-related stress: Early management can help patients reduce tinnitus awareness and improve overall quality of life.

Patients Who May Benefit From Refe

Healthcare providers may consider referral for patients who report:

  • Persistent ringing, buzzing, or humming in the ears.

  • Tinnitus lasting several weeks or longer.

  • Tinnitus associated with hearing difficulty.

  • Difficulty sleeping due to tinnitus.

  • Tinnitus affecting concentration, work performance, or emotional well-being.

  • Increased distress related to tinnitus symptoms.

Collaborative Care with Healthcare Providers

We value collaboration with physicians and healthcare teams to ensure patients receive coordinated and comprehensive care. When appropriate, we can provide documentation to assist referring providers in understanding the patient’s hearing status and tinnitus management plan. Our goal is to help patients better manage tinnitus symptoms while supporting their overall hearing health.
