Hearing Aid UK's Coronavirus Statement
20/10/2020 Guidance Update: All areas remain open for business.
All healthcare appointments continue to remain essential medical visits and abide by the existing government and industry protocols.
Since May 2020, the government announced and released documentation identifying that audiology is an essential service and should continue to be provided. Therefore, our hearing healthcare services are constantly being adapted according to new guidelines set by the government. We are also receiving constant support and advice from our professional bodies on new practice procedures, infection control and protection.
To find out how we can help you and your hearing during and after the pandemic safely or for any other information, read our recent article - 'Audiology Services During & After Coronavirus' here or call us free on 0800 5677621
Statement from Paul Harrison - Founder of Hearing Aid UK
Why Choose Us?
Finding the right solution to a hearing loss can be very confusing. If you want impartial, independent advice then you’ve come to the right place. If you are considering purchasing hearing aids then please compare our services.
Impartiality - We are not owned by or associated with any manufacturer. When our audiologists recommend a hearing aid it’s because it’s the best hearing aid for you.
Choice - We deal with all manufacturers so we are able to offer every hearing aid on the market.
Price - Our prices are amongst the lowest you will find anywhere in the world.
Service - All our prices include all testing, fitting and aftercare for life. There are no hidden extras.
Coverage - We have over 200 independent audiologists who cover the whole of the UK and Ireland. They operate from shops, clinics, day centres and also provide a free home visit service. Like most national hearing aid companies, around half of our service is provided in a branch and half by way of a home visit.
Professionalism - All our audiologists are fully qualified and registered with the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council). Our telephones are manned by audiologists so we are able to provide expert advice instantly. We’re open from 8 am to 8 pm, 7 days a week.
Security - In the years 2018 to 2019, 2 out of the 10 national hearing aid retailers went into administration. This includes Age UK Hearing (also known as Claritas or UK Hearing Care). We are a network of independent audiologists and have several audiologists in every area. In the unlikely event of any one of them ceasing to operate for whatever reason then your service would continue with one of our other audiologists at no cost to yourself.
Recommendation - Which? the consumer watchdog has conducted three surveys over the last ten years to evaluate the best place to purchase hearing aids. On all of the surveys, the “independent audiologist” came top on all categories measured.
Compatability - Looking for hearing aids that work with an iPhone or Android mobile phone? Then take a look at our 'Bluetooth Hearing Aid Guide' here
