It now makes sense…

A patient came in for his first visit after wearing digital hearing aids for the first time and exclaimed, “it now makes sense!”. He, and his wife, knew very well how much difficulty he has been having with his hearing. Distant voices, hearing in noisy areas, and understanding sounds and speech at work has been challenging. Frustrations were fast developing.

He shared today that he is so pleased with how he can now hear sounds that are so new to him. In fact, these sounds took him by surprise, a good surprise. He said, that the sounds now make sense once he understood what made them, such as a bird, gravel under his feet, and even the drop of a nut or bolt at work. Streaming calls and being able to control for position of sound and an equalizer, within the app, to help detail speech in any environment is truly amazing!

It’s great to hear how beneficial digital hearing aids can improve ones quality of life!

    It’s easy to forget about the little sounds of the world. It’s amazing how HA’s can bring all of that back.
