Re: Audiologist near Asheville, NC?So,As an ENT physician I am just curious to ask what specific things you are looking for in an audiologist? Someone who will do more extended bandwidth testing (standard audiogram is 250hz to 8khz at 1 octave intervals), or higher resolution with regards to the number of frequencies tested, or more detail regarding the absolute threshold at any given frequency (usually I would expect +/- 5 db to be inconsequential on an audiogram)?I am just curious. I would find it interesting to have an audiogram from 60hz to 16khz at fairly narrow frequency intervals. I am honestly not sure to what frequency extremes most audiology equipment is calibrated? Or are you just looking for someone who "gets it" in terms of how valuable the nuance and accuracy of your hearing are to you for your work.Curious,Loren Jones
