The decision to get hearing aids is very personal. It\u2019s often something you will probably think about for a long time before taking action. Once you do make the decision to move forward, the process of fitting and programming hearing aids is custom tailored to you. We offer Real Ear testing at fitting to ensure the best possible results. This is not something that can be purchased \u201coff the rack\u201d to deliver optimum results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In fact, in almost all 50 states it\u2019s actually illegal to purchase hearing aids<\/a> through the mail. These laws are in place because if the hearing aids are inappropriately programmed or fit, you can actually make your hearing loss worse! For most people, getting new hearing aids will involve three to five in-office appointments. After that, you can expect to have routine checkups every six to 12 months to ensure your hearing aids are working at their peak efficiency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\n
