FAQs

Meet Dr Signe Steers
The Audiology Place offers independent hearing care to patients across Sydney. We focus on diagnostics first. With no ties to hearing aid manufacturers and no sales targets, every recommendation is based purely on what's right for you.
Dr Signe Steers brings nearly 20 years of clinical experience and a Doctorate in Audiology from A.T. Still University. Her research has been presented at the World Health Organization, and she lectures in audiology at The University of Sydney. This depth of expertise shapes the diagnostic approach at the clinic: thorough assessments that go well beyond a basic hearing screen.
Testing includes pure tone audiometry, speech-in-noise evaluation, tympanometry, acoustic reflex testing, and extended high-frequency assessment when indicated. The goal is a complete picture of how your hearing functions in the real world, not just whether you can hear a beep in a soundproof booth.
Independence matters because it changes what happens after the test.
The clinic is based on Sydney's Northern Beaches, with patients travelling from across the city for genuinely impartial advice. Dr Steers works with everyone from newborns requiring early intervention through to adults navigating age-related hearing changes or workplace noise exposure.
