Hearing Test in Singapore

Evaluating your hearing health is vital towards enhancing your quality of life. At Hearing Partners Singapore, we offer both online and in-clinic hearing tests to provide you with the insights you need to take charge of your hearing health.

Do I Need a Hearing Test?

Recognising the signs of hearing loss is crucial for timely intervention and support. These signs can vary significantly between adults and children, making it essential to be aware of the specific indicators for each age group. Understanding these differences can help you identify potential hearing issues and seek appropriate care.

Hearing loss is a common problem among the elderly. Signs of hearing loss you may observe in adults include:

  • Regularly asking others to repeat themselves
  • Trouble following conversations with more than 2 individuals
  • Frequently perceiving people as mumbling their sentences
  • Issues with sound clarity in noisy or crowded places
  • Having difficulty understanding the voices of women and children
  • Turning up sound volumes much higher than normal

Hearing loss can affect a child's speech and language development. Signs of hearing loss you may observe in children include:

  • Difficulty following instructions
  • Tendency to ask the speaker to repeat his/her question or statement
  • Delayed speech
  • Unclear speech
  • Watching the television too loudly

Types of Hearing Tests

Hearing tests, or audiometric tests, measure your ability to hear the softest levels of sounds at individual pitches. They are painless and non-invasive, and can give you an indication of your overall hearing capabilities. At Hearing Partners, we are fully equipped with the latest technology in hearing diagnostic equipment, ensuring you receive the best care possible. Learn about the types of audiometry tests we offer below.

In-clinic hearing tests

These hearing tests are conducted by an audiologist at a hearing clinic. There are a range of tests designed to evaluate various aspects of your hearing health.

Online hearing test

These quick and fuss-free tests offer a rough indication of your hearing health. They often involve self-evaluation questions, a tone test and some listening situations.

In-Clinic Hearing Tests

In-clinic hearing tests provide a comprehensive assessment of your hearing health in a controlled environment. Conducted by hearing care professionals, these tests utilise advanced equipment to evaluate your level of hearing and identify any areas of concern. At Hearing Partners, the test will take approximately 30 minutes to complete, and you will receive your test results on the same day.
