Abramson Audiology
Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)
Auditory processing difficulties can be experienced by anyone. Common symptoms include;
- being able to "hear, but does not understand",
- having difficulty reading,
- frequently needing directions to be repeated, and
- having difficulty remembering what was said.
These symptoms can occur with or without a hearing loss. If a hearing loss exists, it must be addressed before a CAPD evaluation. A thorough examination by an audiologist experienced in CAPD is required to identify an auditory processing disorder. Contact Abramson Audiology today.
