hearing specialist
Treats deafness professionally
A hearing specialist is a professional who evaluates and treats hearing problems.
The term covers audiologists, who test hearing and fit hearing aids, and otologists or ENTs, who are physicians treating ear disorders medically or surgically.
My doctor referred me to a hearing specialist after I failed the screening.
