Trusted Local Hearing Care Available For Westport, CT

Located on Connecticut’s Gold Coast, Westport, CT is ranked 19th among the 100 richest places in America. Our community was called Bankside originally, named for the five Bankside farmers whose families grew and prospered in the area, then Green’s Farm in honor of one specific family among them, but was finally incorporated as Westport in 1835.

The primary focus of our community was on agriculture until it went through a cultural transformation in the early 1900s when musicians, artists, and authors, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, made Westport their home in order to escape the commuting demands of the city. Dubbed as “creative heaven,” our community’s rolling hills, beaches, and natural beauty, Westport became fashionable for the wealthy of New York.

Our community has undergone another transformation in the 21st century, as finance and insurance, as well as professional, scientific, and technical services, began to emerge with companies like Bridgewater Associates, Canaan Partnership, BNY Mellon, and Terex calling Westport home.

Our town’s hills, beaches, and natural beauty are elements that enhance your quality of life, but their enjoyment is limited when you struggle with hearing challenges. Thankfully, Dr. Bauman, a major contributor in the field of audiology worldwide and co-founder of AVI New England, makes it easy for individuals in Westport and nearby communities to take advantage of personalized and local solutions that address hearing loss, tinnitus, sound sensitivity issues, balance disorders, and other hearing care services we offer at our Norwalk, CT clinic.

Hearing Assessments

A Comprehensive Hearing Assessment: Your First Step To Better Hearing

multi coloured blocks

In spite of the fact that hearing loss is the third most common physical health condition in America, most people regularly have their eyes, teeth, cholesterol, and blood checked regularly but tend to put off hearing tests as a part of their health screening regimen.

The World Health Organization reports that 1 in 8 individuals experience some level of hearing loss and predicts a doubling of hearing loss cases over the next 30 years, which makes regular hearing assessments a critical part of monitoring your health.

The gradual onset of hearing loss makes it difficult to identify the day-to-day changes, making it difficult for you to catch it in its earliest stages. However, you can protect yourself against the damage by scheduling annual or bi-annual hearing tests.

If you want to know the truth about what’s going on with your hearing or that of your loved one, the only way to measure hearing loss and address it before it creates further damage is a hearing assessment.

Hearing Aid Technology

Select The Hearing Aid Technology That Fits Your Needs, Lifestyle, And Budget

As an engineer and an audiologist who invented the most widely used hearing aid in the world, it is fair to say that Dr. Bauman and his team are well informed with the ins and outs of today’s hearing aid technology.

AVI New England is in a unique position to provide the highest level of insight into the auditory system, the part of the brain associated with speech and language, and the electronics of hearing devices that provide the best solution for your unique hearing issues as well as provide the programming and adjustments to them to optimize your hearing experience.

Today’s hearing technology is incredibly small, lightweight, discreet, powerful, and smart, with the capacity to separate background noise from speech and reproduce speech with a clarity that will amplify your life, maximizing your interactions with family, friends, and neighbors.

In addition, many modern hearing aids include wireless connectivity capabilities, making it possible to directly link your smartphone, television, computer, and other digital devices to your hearing aids for an enhanced hearing experience.

Tinnitus Evaluations & Treatment

Tinnitus Treatment From Who The Experts Turn To For Help

multi coloured blocks

If you have ever experienced tinnitus (ringing, humming, or buzzing in your ears), then you already know how the condition impacts your quality of life. It is impossible to escape the agonizing and overwhelming presence of tinnitus, regardless of the activity you’re engaged in or if you just want to relax.

Tinnitus symptoms often go unnoticed or come and go in its early stages, but symptoms like sounds intensifying, loss of sleep, increased stress, and decreased productivity are common consequences associated with the condition. Greater awareness of the condition increases the level of stress, which in turn increases the intensity and greater awareness of the condition, producing a snowballing effect.

With 40+ years as an audiologist, Dr. Bauman has established a tinnitus and sound over-sensitivity clinic that uses proprietary treatment therapies he teaches to national and international practitioners.

If you or a loved one is battling tinnitus, turn to who the experts trust for advice and support regarding tinnitus by scheduling a tinnitus assessment today.
