We offer assessments for all children ages 0-5. CHEO Audiology may also see school-aged children 6 - 17 years who have a significant developmental delay and who cannot complete conventional testing in a community clinic. The Audiology clinic is located in clinic B on the first floor of CHEO's main campus.
