I was wondering…. By Dr. Richard Reikowski, Au.D Family Hearing and Balance Center

I love it when a patient asks questions and says, I was wondering? This normally follows with some creative conversation to come.

This patient went on to ask about connecting to TV’s, radios, cell phones etc. The loop system through my hearing aid tele-coil program at church is amazingly successful, so I was wondering if I can hear better with the TV, radio etc?

She went on to say, If I’m not connected to others I’m simply not a part of things. I want to be in a real world and to simply participate.

I want to hear the words and understand the meaning. I am so happy that I can hear so well! We chatted about some easy solutions to connect and hear through various Bluetooth and streaming devices to improve these areas of life hearing!

    Connection is everything, but the solutions aren’t there is one doesn’t know about them.
