Services
In addition to comprehensive auditory and vestibular diagnostic testing, our audiology staff provides a full range of hearing aid services including:
HEARING AID EVALUATION
A hearing aid evaluation is a no-obligation appointment with an audiologist. The audiologist will review your hearing test and ask about your hearing difficulties and concerns to make personalized recommendations based upon your unique needs. Hearing aids come in a wide variety of styles and technology levels ranging from approximately $1500 to $6000 per pair. We can find a solution that fits both your budget and your listening needs. For some patients, we may be able to offer a no-risk demonstration before purchase.
HEARING AID FITTING
Once you have selected which hearing aids to purchase, you will return for a hearing aid fitting appointment. We will review and practice how to put them in and take them out, proper cleaning technique, and how to change the batteries.
HEARING AID CHECK-UPS
Getting used to hearing sounds you have been missing can take some time. We will help you through this process. You will return to the office two to three weeks after the fitting so we can discuss your experiences and perhaps fine tune the hearing aids. At this time, we will set up a customized plan for future appointments.
All new hearing aids come with
-A two-year manufacturer’s warranty that covers repairs and a one-time loss and damage replacement.
-All professional services (including the consultation, fitting and check-ups) for one year following purchase.
-An initial supply of batteries
