Hidden hearing loss is a type of hearing loss that originates in the brain (instead of the ears) and isn't detectable on standard hearing tests. People with hidden hearing loss struggle to hear in real-world situations, but are able to pass a hearing test without any problems.
When used in tandem with a hearing loop, hearing aid telecoils can dramatically enhance your listening experience in public places by piping audio-system sounds directly to your hearing aids.
Some risk factors for hearing loss are understandable—think aging, excessive noise exposure, or traumatic brain injury—but other risks aren’t always so obvious.
Tympanometry is a type of test that measures the function of the middle ear. It can help rule out certain types of hearing loss and may be used to determine whether hearing aids would be a useful treatment.
Mark Martina earned his Masters degree in Audiology from the University of Buffalo and in his final year of graduate school he was selected for the Tindle-Schupe award for clinical excellence. He is a Fellow of the Academy of Doctors of Audiology and certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.

“First time visit and was treated like a long time patient, relaxing atmosphere, I learned about more great features on my hearing aids that the supplying company failed to explain to me.
Thanks.”

“I was looking for an audiologist who was an Oticon dealer and had their own practice. I found them for sure ! Mark Martina was very knowledgeable & tech savvy . He was able to take care of hearing aid adjustment with some fine tuning in his office. He also helped me step by step with a tv adapter install which I purchased from. The whole office is very polite and professional.”

“All around pleasing experience. The most important component (BY FAR) of buying hearing aids is the audiologist. Mark deals with multiple hearing aid manufacturers and finds the one best suited for your particular needs. Mark will test your hearing, free of charge, and educate you on your particular deficiencies, if any, then will recommend the appropriate aid for you. No sales pressuring whatsoever. Don't skimp on your hearing!”

“When first told by my wife I needed a hearing aid I thought she was wrong. Than I met Mark Martina and was I ever so wrong and my wife so right. Mark from the beginning to the end made me feel that I was the only one. He took the time to explain everything and never rushed me. A true professional from start to finish. Mark was recommended by a friend who also was 100% satisfied. Mark proved through his professional mannerism and knowledge that he's the "Best". I can hear so clearly now as I just turned 70 years young. In today's world the quality service side of business is becoming less and less. Mark steps up and changes all that through his actions and professional care. Before Marks work I was listening to my TV on 39 and now it's at 18, which makes my wife very happy. My only regret is I didn't go to Mark 12 years ago. I know the saying is "I Can See Clearly Now" but mine is "I Can HEAR Clearly Now" With my new ears I can hear everything and feel I am part of the Martina Audiology family.”
