Hearing Health Professionals
Who are they?

 

  Audiologist

an individual, with post-graduate training in a college or uni­versity program, specializing in the eval­u­a­tion of hearing and rehabilitation of the hearing impaired individual. 

  Ear-Nose-Throat (ENT) Specialist

also called otologist or otolaryngologist, is a physician with special­ization in diagnosing and treating diseases of the ear, nose and throat. 

Hearing Aid Dispenser

         also called hearing aid dealer, fits and sells hearing aids. 
A license is required in New York State. Hearing aid dispensers are not required to have col­lege or university training. However, it is well known that many of them are high­ly skilled and some have extensive formal training. In fact, many audio­logists have become hearing aid dispensers and vice versa.
