Are you concerned about your childs hearing or speech development?

All children will be tested by Audiology students under the supervision of an experienced paediatric Audiologist (me). You will have the results explained to you on the day, plus you will be given a copy of your childs test results. This is not a screening test, it is a full diagnostic assessment.
Our clinic is opposite Auckland hospital so it is close to public transport routes plus we can offer free parking in our building if you prefer to drive in.
These appointments will only be offered until mid October so get in quickly. If interested, please e-mail Sharon Mein Smith on s.meinsmith@auckland.ac.nz and I'll send you further some information and put you in touch with the clinic so that you can make an appointment. We even have appointments available tomorrow, Wednesday 21 September! Please feel free to share this with any friends or family who may be interested.
