Sensaphonics Launches Online Virtual Consultations with In-House Musicians Hearing Clinic Audiologists

Dr. Michael Santucci, Au.D. and Dr. Shannon Switzer, Au.D.

Sensaphonics announces a new program aimed at making proper hearing health more accessible than ever. With the announcement of new virtual consultation options, clients from around the world can now meet virtually with a music audiologist from Sensaphonics' own in-house Musicians Hearing Clinic, offering a level of care often reserved for professional touring artists and audio engineers who are able to visit their Chicago offices. Additionally, whether it's their first step or the next chapter in their hearing health journey, a new online appointment booking interface makes it more convenient than ever to set up a one-on-one consultation from anywhere, at any time, the company says.

Sensaphonics' Musicians Hearing Clinic is booking virtual consultations with two of the top practitioners in music audiology: Dr. Michael Santucci, Au.D., founder and president of Sensaphonics; and Dr. Shannon Switzer, Au.D., director of the Musicians Hearing Clinic at Sensaphonics, providing personalized hearing health and conservation guidance to clients globally. Designed for both music industry professionals and non-industry patients outside the Chicago area, these half- and one-hour web-based sessions give clients direct access to expert advice tailored to their unique listening lifestyle and needs. Participants can discuss specific questions or concerns, have hearing test results interpreted, learn effective hearing protection strategies, and receive recommendations on earplugs, in-ear monitors, tinnitus management, hearing aids, and more. Sensaphonics can also connect clients with qualified local audiologists for proper ear impressions when custom products are desired. While remote consultations cannot include hearing tests, ear impressions, or adjustments to hearing aids purchased elsewhere, the Sensaphonics network of professionals offers a convenient, expert-driven solution for protecting and enhancing hearing health from the road or from the comfort of home.

"Great hearing is at the heart of making and enjoying music, but too often, the right care feels out of reach," says Dr. Switzer. "With our new virtual consultations, we can bring that same level of specialized care to musicians, audio pros, and anyone who values their hearing, whether they're on tour, in the studio, or at home. It's about making proven hearing conservation strategies accessible, convenient, and personalized, so you can protect your ears without missing a beat."

In addition to booking virtual consultations, the new online portal also provides appointment access to a full spectrum of in-person services tailored to both music industry professionals and general clients at the Chicago Sensaphonics clinic, including first-time patient consultations and follow-up visits, wax removal, mobile on-site services across the Chicago area, specialized orchestral clinic services, hearing aid consultations and checks, and custom-fit product adjustments.
