Hearing Aid Selection & Needs Assessment

Age at the time of amplification as well as cause, degree, and duration of hearing loss is important factor to determine the outcome of treatment.  Co-existing conditions including but not limited to memory impairment, vision loss, vascular disease, diabetes or neuropathy may also affect the prognosis.  There is no one-size-fits all solution for most  of medical treatments, and it is certainly true with hearing care.

​

Treatment plan should be revolve around the communication needs of you and your loved ones.  This should be the first brick laid on the top of a solid foundation- i.e. an accurate diagnosis -towards better hearing and positive outcome of the audiological rehabilitation. 

​

Our audiologist will present scientific, evidence based on facts about your condition of hearing and realistic expectations with amplification; and then set rehabilitation goals together. 

​

You can ask questions, and share your thoughts and concerns at this time. 

• How do I know what is best for me?

• I want something easy where I don't need to do anything.

• I'd like to use Bluetooth streaming for listening to music, audio-books, and talking to my grandchildren.

​

These are all very common considerations at the time of selection of amplification styles, levels of technology, or functionality.  You may also consider accessories that support with communication needs.

​

All these areas will be discussed and we'll focus on your needs and expected outcomes during the consultation.
