FREE hearing tests offered for young children
Hi,
Does you preschooler ignore you when you speak to them or is their speech less clear than other children their age? Maybe they have a hearing loss.
We are offering FREE hearing tests to children aged between 3 years and 5 years 11 months of age.at the University of Auckland Audiology Clinic at Grafton Campus. All children will be tested by Audiology students under the supervision of an experienced paediatric Audiologist (me). You will have the results explained to you on the day, plus you will be given a copy of your childs test results. This is NOT a screening test, it is a full diagnostic assessment.
Our clinic is opposite Auckland hospital so it is close to public transport routes plus we can offer free parking in our building if you prefer to drive in.
These appointments will only be offered until mid October, so get in quickly. If interested, please e-mail Sharon Mein Smith on s.meinsmith@auckland.ac.nz and I'll send you further some information and put you in touch with the clinic so that you can make an appointment. We even have appointments available over the next two weeks during the school holidays! Please feel free to share this with any friends or family who may be interested.
