Carina Avenant Audiologist Inc. is a privately owned audiology practice situated in Medforum
Hospital, Pretoria. The director of the firm, Carina
Avenant, has extensive theoretical and clinical
experience in Audiology. Miss Avenant has post
graduate degrees and is still involved in the tertiary
training of students in this field. The company
was established in 2013 and strive to help patients
of all age-groups to hear better and optimise their
communication abilities. Allaudiologists employed,
are registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa.
Although the main practice is situated in Medforum Medi-clinic, we also boast a mobile unit. We are
in the fortunate position to have a KUDUwave audiometer which eliminates the need for a
soundproof booth.
The KUDUwave Mobile Clinical Diagnostic Audiometer has built-in sound blocking capabilities
that are comparable to those of a high performance,
industry standard, screening
sound booth.

It’s built in sound blocking feature called the Ambidome attenuates noise similar or even better than traditional sound proof booths. Furthermore the KUDUwave
monitors the environmental noise constantly in real time. This ensures that whenever a tone is presented, the environmental noise
levels are quiet enough so as not to compromise the test results. The operator is alerted when the noise in the background is too loud for compliant testing.
This unit allows us to provide services to environments or individuals who might find it difficult to access audiological services through ordinary avenues.The need for high quality audiological equipment as well as good competencies is acknowledged, but these services must be provided on the foundation of excellent interpersonal skills.
The audiologists involved in the practise understand that service provision necessitates extreme respect, patience as well as extra time and loving care.
