    Our Central Auditory Processing Disorder Test or
    Central Auditory processing assessment involves a
    peripheral hearing assessment and tests for the
    central auditory processing system.
  • The benchmark in speech-in-noise testing, LISN-S,
    with its four steps, assesses the ability of
    individuals with normal hearing to understand
    speech when there is noise coming from different
    directions.
  • The inability to use spatial information has been
    found to be a leading cause of auditory
    processing disorder (APD). LiSN-S enables hearing
    care professionals to assess individuals with
    normal hearing in a range of different noise
    environments. LiSN-S is quick to administer, and
    has high test-retest reliability. LISN-S have
    been developed by Dr. Sharon Cameron and Dr.
    Harvey Dillon of National Acoustic Laboratories
    of Australia (NAL).

The appointment lasts around 2 hours. We discuss
the results and make appropriate recommendations
immediately after testing is completed.Following
the appointment a comprehensive medical report is
sent, which would include appropriate strategies
to address auditory processing deficits, if
found. Central Auditory Processing Disorder Tests
are suitable for children aged 7 years and older
only.
Referrals are welcome but are not necessary to
