Free Medical Iphone Apps Review: uHear (r)

uHear for the Iphone:

People kept telling me that they needed to speak a bit louder to me to have a smooth conversation because otherwise I kept asking about things I did not catch. It was then when I decided that I needed to test my hearing.

I knew the Iphone had a very high quality sound engine so I searched for audiometry and hearing tests and foud a Free Hearing Test app for the Iphone called uHear.
The application has 3 different tests:

• Hearing Sensitivity: It tests how well you can hear sounds on different parts of the spectrum and it tests both your ears.
• Speech in Noise: It tests your capacity to understand spoken language in a noisy environment.
• Questionnaire: It measures your symptoms and gives you a score of how well you are doing.

I tried it and it gave me a surprise result... My hearing was not very good. So I went to the ORL doctor and decided to have a professional audiometry and the results were comparable. I know this tool does not replace the professional diagnostic tools, but it is a very good start... It helped me know that I had a problem and encouraged me to go to the doctor (I am a medical doctor too, but some of us are afraid to seek help for our own health problems)
You can see my results in the pictures.
