Tinnitus Assessment, treatment & management in Hurstville & the St George area
Understanding your tinnitus
Tinnitus is the perception of sound such as ringing, buzzing, hissing, or humming in the ears without an external source. It can vary in intensity and may significantly impact concentration, sleep, and overall wellbeing.
If you’re in Hurstville or the St George area and experiencing tinnitus, Georges River Hearing & Audiology provides comprehensive tinnitus assessment and personalised management from our nearby Oatley clinic.
If you’re experiencing persistent ear noise, we offer thorough tinnitus assessments and tailored management plans, designed to reduce its impact on your daily life. Our goal is to help you better understand your symptoms and improve your day-to-day wellbeing.
We take a detailed, individual approach to tinnitus assessment, exploring your specific symptoms and any contributing factors. Because tinnitus affects people differently, understanding the factors that may be contributing to your tinnitus can help guide appropriate management strategies.
What causes tinnitus?
Tinnitus can be associated with:
• Hearing loss (most common cause)• Noise exposure• Ear wax blockage• Stress or fatigue• Middle or inner ear conditions
In many cases, multiple factors may contribute.
What does a tinnitus assessment involve?
Your appointment begins with a detailed discussion about your tinnitus - including when it started, how it sounds, when you notice it most and how it may be affecting your sleep, concentration or everyday life.
Your audiologist will also discuss your hearing and medical history before completing a comprehensive hearing assessment and other testing where appropriate. This helps us better understand your hearing profile and identify factors that may be associated with your tinnitus.
We'll then explain your results in plain language and discuss management options based on your individual symptoms, hearing and lifestyle. If your assessment indicates that further medical investigation is appropriate, we'll recommend referral to your GP or another relevant healthcare professional.
