Free hearing clinic set for this week

On Thursday, May 15, and again June 12, the ENT/ ENT Allergy and Audiology Clinic will provide three separate hearing education sessions to the Omaha community.

“When someone experiences hearing loss, it doesn’t just affect that person,” Lynn Reese, Au.D., said. “Those who interact with that individual also have to adapt.”

Presentations will emphasize the importance of educating family and friends of the hearing impaired about hearing loss. Open house sessions will examine how hearing aids work and what new technologies are available. Expert advice on hearing equipment will be provided by Phonak®, a leading hearing aid distributor.

Two sessions will be held on Thursday, May 15, at the Durham Research Center with the first presentation starting at 10 a.m. and the second at 1 p.m. Those who wish to participate on Thursday, June 12 will meet at the Village Pointe Medical Office Building, Suite 2700 at noon.

Seating is limited with light refreshments served. If interested, please register in advance by calling 888-898-8662.
