Hearing Evaluations
Our comprehensive hearing evaluations use the latest diagnostic technology to assess your hearing health. We perform audiometric testing, speech recognition testing, and tympanograms to create a complete picture of your hearing.
Our Services
Comprehensive Ear & Hearing Care
From diagnostic evaluations to advanced surgical procedures, we offer a full spectrum of neurotologic and audiologic services.

For patients with severe-to-profound hearing loss who do not benefit from traditional hearing aids, cochlear implants may be the answer. Dr. McElveen is one of the region's leading cochlear implant surgeons.
Hearing Aids
We work with all major hearing aid manufacturers to find the perfect solution for your lifestyle and hearing needs. Our audiologists provide expert fittings, programming, adjustments, and ongoing support.
Tinnitus Management
Ringing, buzzing, or humming in your ears can be debilitating. We offer comprehensive tinnitus evaluations and personalized management plans including sound therapy, counseling, and hearing aid-based solutions.
Ear Infections & Disorders
From chronic ear infections to cholesteatoma, eardrum perforations, and other ear conditions, our physicians provide expert diagnosis and treatment for patients of all ages.
Custom Ear Protection
Protect your hearing with custom-molded earplugs and hearing protection devices. Ideal for musicians, hunters, swimmers, industrial workers, and anyone regularly exposed to loud environments.
Endoscopic Ear Surgery
Carolina Ear is one of a select few practices offering endoscopic ear surgery — a minimally invasive approach that uses small, high-definition cameras to perform procedures through the ear canal, often eliminating the need for external incisions and allowing for faster recovery.
Skull Base Surgery
Our surgeons specialize in lateral skull base surgery for complex conditions including encephaloceles, superior canal dehiscence, and skull base tumors such as acoustic neuromas. This expertise requires advanced training and is available at only a limited number of centers.
