	Question: I have moderate to severe hearing loss in both ears that is basically corrected by a good pair of hearing aids. In addition, I have significant difficult construing speech, especially in small groups. I often find it helpful to listen to a multi-person conversation for a time before trying to participate. I think I have had this condition all or most of my adult life, but I am only becoming aware of it as something medically significant. Is there a name for a condition like ~~ine~~ and are ~~their~~ specialists who investigate it?

I think I have had this condition all or most of my adult life, but I am only now becoming aware of it as something medically significant. Is there a name for a condition like mine and are there specialists who investigate it?

	Response: It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition related to auditory processing, which can affect how you interpret and understand speech, especially in complex listening environments. The term "auditory processing disorder" (APD) is often used to describe difficulties in processing auditory information in the brain, despite having normal hearing ability. In your case, since you have moderate to severe hearing loss that is corrected with hearing aids, your challenges with speech understanding may be compounded by this.
