Hearing Aids
Our office partners with five of the top hearing aid manufacturers (Oticon, Unitron, Phonak, Starkey, Widex) to provide a wide range of features, styles and prices to meet every hearing loss need. Many hearing aid styles and technologies are available. Hearing aid selection is based on specific individual needs, including hearing loss, manual dexterity, cosmetic and cost concerns.
Most hearing aids today are completely digital devices which incorporate a tiny computer processor which analyzes sound signals received by the hearing aid and automatically adjusts the output according to the user's listening requirements. Many hearing aids include directional microphones which help in comprehending speech signals in noisy backgrounds. Some hearing aids identify specific listening environments such as speech, noise or music. Accessories are available which allow connection to other sound sources such as Bluetooth Cell Phones or remote microphones.
