Finding the right local audiologist is key to better hearing

You might be here because you are researching the best place for hearing aids near me, and you wouldn't be the only one.  When you are searching for hearing aid assistance near you you must find the right audiologist who is in your area. In many ways, it is just as important as finding the right hearing aids and some would argue even more so.  

In reality, you are paying for the audiologist's time and experience and not just your devices when you purchase your new hearing aids.  Then after your initial consultation, you will benefit from a professional relationship built on trust and reliability - as well as aftercare that ensures you are always hearing at your best.

Three main benefits of purchasing your hearing aids locally

Personalised fitting and adjustments:  Local hearing aid providers can offer personalised fitting and adjustment services tailored to your specific hearing needs and preferences. Being able to visit a local provider allows for face-to-face interaction, ensuring that the hearing aids are properly fitted and optimised for your comfort and performance.

Convenient aftercare:  Having access to a local provider means you can easily seek assistance for any issues or questions that arise with your hearing aids. Whether it's troubleshooting technical issues, scheduling follow-up appointments, or seeking advice on maintenance and care.

Community connection: Building a relationship with a local hearing aid provider creates a sense of community and trust. Local providers often have a strong understanding of the unique hearing healthcare needs within their community and can offer valuable insights and resources tailored to local preferences and conditions.

Guidelines to help you choose the right audiologist locally

 

Your medical history

Your health history is important and your audiologist needs to fully understand this before advising on any hearing aids. 

Such as your usual listening environment, what you would like to hear more clearly, what hearing challenges you have, what your opinion is of hearing aids, and what type of device would make you feel more confident in wearing.

 

Your audiogram results explained

Your hearing test results should be explained clearly and relatively, so you are aware of your hearing challenges and at what level you can hear.  Always ask for a printout of your results, so you can get used to how it looks and how it is mapped out, as well as keeping it for future reference.

 

Have the confidence to ask questions

Don't be afraid of asking your audiologist questions, they are there to support you and your hearing health going forward.  The more you understand your own hearing loss and hearing aids - the better you can relate to and maintain your hearing health and the devices themselves.

 

Beware of affiliations

If you are advised on a certain hearing aid, ask why this one is being suggested for your hearing loss and how it will benefit you every day.  Also, ask to see other models that would be suitable, so you get a varied choice. 

We are mentioning this, as some hearing aid retailers are affiliated with certain hearing aid brands and would probably only offer these models.

 

Ask what's included in the price

Make sure you know exactly what you get when purchasing your new hearing aids, such as aftercare, follow-up appointments, and manufacturer's warranty.  You don't want any nasty surprises in the future!

 

Discover the benefits of private and local audiologists

Ensure that you choose an audiologist who is not only local to you but one who is willing to expand on their knowledge, skill set, and experience.  One that is willing to dedicate their time to simply helping you to hear better. 

Also, on a more basic note, a local audiologist will be more convenient for you when travelling to and from appointments.

Share the load of decision-making with family and friends

 

Family support is priceless

Choosing hearing aids is a daunting task with many factors to consider such as organising appointments, understanding information, making choices, and implementing said information as well as maintaining your hearing health.  Therefore, sometimes family support and involvement are often crucial. 

Family or friends can relieve anxiety, support the decision-making process, and help you feel more confident in your appointments.  On another note, your family can observe the challenges of your hearing loss and learn to relate and know in which ways to support you better going forward.

Here we break down the priorities of hearing aids.

Audiological requirements

Different types of hearing loss require different fitting strategies. The hearing aids must have sufficient reserve amplification so they will last for several years – not just one or two.  Five years is about right.

Technology and performance

This above all else determines the cost of the hearing aid. The higher the technology, the higher the price. This has nothing to do with the severity of the hearing loss, it’s about how well you want to be able to hear.

Size

As a general rule of thumb, the larger the hearing aid the more powerful it is. Smaller hearing aids have smaller batteries which could be difficult for people with poor dexterity. Smaller batteries don’t last as long.

Accessories

Some hearing aids have accessories that can be purchased. These include wireless transmitters that enable the sound from a television, telephone, or another device to “beam” sound into the hearing aid.  The need for certain assistance by way of accessories can heavily influence the choice of make/model of hearing aid required.

Style

There are many different styles of hearing aids. The two main categories are ITE (in the ear) and BTE (behind the ear). These are becoming increasingly popular as they can be extremely small and cosmetic. 

Cost

Without a doubt, the most common hurdle is hearing aid price. As most people with hearing loss need two hearing aids - the price tag eventually becomes a huge factor in people deciding to get help or not.

We understand that everyone has different needs and different budgets. You might want the most premium hearing aid on the market or you might want hearing aids at the most affordable price.
