Our Procedures
Tinnitus and Sound Tolerance
Usually temporary, this type of hearing loss can be fixed with medication, a short procedure and, on rare occasions, with surgery.
Hearing Tests
This type of hearing occurs when tiny hairs in the cochlea are missing or damaged. Getting fitted with hearing aids is the only non-surgical solution.

“I went to Tinnitus and Hearing Health Calgary just over a year ago as my tinnitus was no longer tolerable for me and I was at the end of my rope. Bonita’s professional and friendly manner instantly put me at ease. The whole process was wonderful and I’m happy to say that a year later my tinnitus is definitely much more manageable. Making that appointment over a year ago was life changing for me – I’m now kicking myself for not going to see her sooner!”
Joanne Foster
“I want to thank Bonita for being so thorough in her assessment. I was rear ended in a car accident and sound became a huge issue for me to tolerate. Bonita has given me hope that I may slowly return to normal through the sound therapy she prescribed. She is very supportive and willing to answer any questions at any time. Very happy with my experience.”
Sherry Barge
“Bonita Chow is the most knowledgeable audiologist on tinnitus that I have found. She answered all my questions and has given me practical advice on how to manage my tinnitus. She fitted me with hearing aids customized to my tinnitus. They have greatly improved the quality of my life and her patience and weekly follow up to monitor my progress help me to keep moving forward. ”
