That’s why our licensed audiologists are committed to providing the most thoughtful audiology care to patients in Pinehurst, Sanford, Raeford, Rockingham, Troy and surrounding areas throughout NC and SC.

Technological advancements over the last few decades have made it possible to treat a number of hearing and balance disorders without the assistance of surgical procedures. Visit us today to see how easy it can be to improve your hearing through our expert audiology services.

What is an Audiologist?

According to the American Academy of Audiology, an audiologist is “A person who, by virtue of academic degree, clinical training, and license to practice and/or professional credential, is uniquely qualified to provide a comprehensive array of professional services related to the prevention of hearing loss and the audiologic identification, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of persons with impairment of auditory and vestibular function, and to the prevention of impairments associated with them.”

All of our audiologists at Pinehurst Surgical hold a master’s degree or doctoral degree from an accredited university. We provide diagnosis and treatment for disorders affecting the hearing and balance systems in patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors.

Signs of Hearing Loss

We recommend having your hearing checked by our Pinehurst, NC audiologists if you:​

• Complain that people mumble
• Are continually asking people to repeat what they’ve just said
• Avoid noisy rooms or places
• Prefer the television or radio to be louder than others do
