Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)
Do you or your child hear perfectly but face challenges in understanding what’s being said? It might be Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). This isn’t about hearing, but how the brain interprets sounds. While it affects roughly 5% of school-age children, adults aren’t immune, especially to post-traumatic brain injuries or age-related hearing loss.
At Hearing Excellence, we’re here to help both children and adults tackle this disorder with a comprehensive, patient-first strategy.
