Overcome Your Hearing Challenges

Hearing Aids

Imagine listening again with clarity, comfort, and confidence. The right hearing aid, properly fit delivers better hearing and a better quality of life. Hearing aids help you enjoy your life and engage with the people that matter most to you. There are many health benefits to wearing hearing aids, including a lowered risk of cognitive decline.

Today’s hearing aids improve most types of hearing loss and can be comfortably worn every day. They are discreet, rechargeable and can wirelessly connect to your TV and mobile phone. This is all possible with new hearing aids from the San Francisco Hearing Center.

Which Hearing Aids Are Best for Me?

With so many options in choosing a hearing aid, how do you decide which one is best for you? What type or brand of hearing aid do you need? What don’t you need? What is the difference between different brands, features and providers? If you have any, all, or some of these questions you are not alone. These are the top questions we hear at San Francisco Hearing Center, and we have the answers for you. Click here for more information on hearing aid services at San Francisco Hearing Center.

When choosing a hearing aid, it’s vital to follow three important rules for a successful outcome.

  1. Find an independent doctor of audiology who works with multiple hearing aid manufacturers. An independent audiologist works with all the top brands and will give you an unbiased hearing aid recommendation. It’s important to be aware that many hearing aid retail chains are affiliates or subsidiaries of a hearing aid manufacturer. For example, retail outlets HearingLife and Connect Hearing are affiliates of a hearing aid manufacturer. Each hearing aid brand and model has its own unique features and benefits. As an independent doctor of audiology practice owned by audiologists, San Francisco Hearing Center fits hearing aids from several quality hearing aid manufacturers. We can match your hearing loss issues to the products we know will work the best for you.
  2. Get Tested First. Get a diagnostic hearing test. An audiologist performs a full audiologic battery of tests to precisely diagnose the source of your hearing difficulty. The results of this diagnostic panel may alert the audiologist to other underlying conditions.
  3. Seek help from a licensed audiologist who follows best practices to personalize your hearing aids. Your hearing loss, ears and listening preferences are unique. Customization using best practices is essential to provide the best outcomes. The audiologists at San Francisco Hearing use real ear measurements to measure the sound at the level of the eardrum. Using these measures, the audiologist can adjust the hearing aid so that it delivers the precise amount of sound required for maximum hearing ability. The customization of your device is one of the largest factors in ensuring your success.

Widex

Widex has branded itself as delivering the purest, most natural sound ever achieved in a hearing aid. The Widex Moment hearing aid uses a technology called Puresound Technology to deliver a more pure, natural sound. Typically, sound processed in a hearing aid reaches the eardrum later than sound heard directly. And when these two ‘out of sync’ signals mix, they create an artificial sound. Puresound solves this delay and delivers a more natural sounding hearing experience. This sound quality is perceived by the wearer as sounding as if they aren’t even wearing a hearing aid.  Schedule a consultation with San Francisco Hearing Center to learn more about all the benefits designed by Widex to allow you to live each moment to its fullest.
