Which Hearing Aid is Best for Me?

Audiologists have been searching for the answer to this question for many years. Our patients are trying to sift through newspaper ads, internet search results, stories from well-meaning friends, and television commercials claiming they have found the “Golden Aid.” The truth is: no one hearing aid solves the problems that are unique to the hearing impaired population. Certain clothing companies specialize in petites, some in plus sizes, some for tall men, etc.; the same is true for hearing aids. Hearing aid manufacturers have different strengths: a power circuit for a severe hearing loss, a shell for someone with a tiny ear canal or high-frequency emphasis. It is important to choose a hearing health care professional who dispenses multiple brands of hearing aids.

It is more beneficial to approach a hearing aid purchase with a list of specific concerns rather than a handful of brochures or advertising gimmicks. Your hearing healthcare professional will help to choose the best aid for you by reviewing your hearing test, listening to your individual concerns and addressing your unique listening challenges.
