What is an audioprosthetist?<\/h2>\n

An audioprosthetist is a hearing health professional who sells, fits, adjusts and replaces hearing aids based on a certificate from a doctor, speech pathologist or audiologist attesting the need for that type of device.<\/p>\n

This professional also supports patients so they can adapt to their hearing aids or listening devices as well as possible.<\/p>\n

An audioprosthetist works closely with other hearing professionals, including ear, nose and throat doctors (ENTs)<\/a> and audiologists<\/a>, as well as with the patient\u2019s family.<\/p>\n
