Understand your hearing with a comprehensive Pure Tone Audiometry test. Our experienced clinicians use advanced diagnostic equipment to deliver accurate, reliable and personalised results.
At Welfast Hearing Australia, we provide professional Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) testing to accurately assess your hearing ability across a range of sound frequencies and volumes. This comprehensive assessment is considered the gold standard for identifying hearing loss and is an essential first step in diagnosing hearing conditions.
Whether you are experiencing difficulty hearing conversations, ringing in your ears, workplace noise exposure, or simply want to monitor your hearing health, we provide clear answers and practical next steps.
Pure Tone Audiometry is a diagnostic hearing test that measures the softest sounds you can hear at different frequencies, or pitches. The results are plotted on an audiogram, giving your clinician a detailed picture of your hearing ability.
A PTA assessment is recommended if you notice changes in your hearing or need a reliable baseline for future comparison.
Early diagnosis can significantly improve treatment outcomes and help preserve long-term hearing health.
During the assessment, you will wear specialised headphones inside a quiet testing room. Your clinician plays a series of pure tones at different frequencies and sound levels. Each time you hear a tone, you respond by pressing a button or raising your hand.
The test is completely painless and usually takes 20–30 minutes. Your hearing thresholds are then plotted on an audiogram and explained in clear, easy-to-understand language.
PTA measures hearing sensitivity from approximately 250 Hz to 8000 Hz—the range covering sounds most important for everyday communication.
Hearing loss can develop gradually and may not be obvious until it affects communication, work performance and quality of life. Regular assessment creates a clear baseline and supports earlier intervention.
Your clinician will explain your audiogram and recommend the most appropriate next step for your hearing needs and lifestyle.
We combine advanced diagnostic technology with compassionate, patient-centred care. We take time to understand your concerns and ensure you receive the highest standard of hearing care.
