Suggest The Type Of Specialist To Consult For Inability To Hear Few Sounds

My son is 5 and had a hearing test at his routine check up and did not hear all the tones on the test, that was in August. We were advised to go back and just went a couple days ago. He is still missing a couple of the tones in both ears. The first Dr. told me to go to an ENT, one the other day said an audiologist. Which one would be the best in this situation? Thanks!!
