ENT or Audiologist

[ed2w]

I was hoping to see someone about ear pressure, tinnitus and dizziness/balance issues. What would be the difference between an audiologist or ENT. What would they do if I went to an appointment with one.

audiologist focus more on helping you in listening, they diagnose how severe is your hearing lost by conducting frequency and pitch test. after diagnosis, they then decide whether you need a hearing aid to help you or not. the hearing aid can also be set on the frequency to mask or dampen your tinnitus or act as a hearing booster

I was at the audiology department on Saturday to get 2hearing aids which have been a real help to me they mask my tinnitus and also have helped my hearing problem still trying to adjust to wearing two instead of one though
