I was just diagnosed with moderate-severe asymmetrical hearing loss (age appropriate) and would like to know if you could recommend a hearing aid specialist, someone who shares your philosophy and expertise, in the Los Angeles area? Thank you.

Do you know if the VA follows best practices? I recently got my oticon intent 1s from them

PHILIPS, SONY ,SIEMENS, SENNHEISER ..They alll make state of the art hearing aids

It was very important to me to treat my mild to moderate hearing loss as early as possible as i am in so many high risk medical conditions. Treating my hearing loss is one of the more manageable health issues i have been diagnosed with. Mild hearing loss and dementia affects everyone in my immediate family. I also have been diagnosed with tinnitus, aortic abnormalities, high blood pressure diabetes and acute sleep apnea. Mu audiologist is highly qualified and is quick to address my concerns with my hearing loss and tinnitus and i feel very fortunate to have him addressing my hearing issues.

I'm listening fine on $12 Ebay rechargeable hearing aids.

Thanks you so mich tou helped lots🎉

Do you have a recommendation? Below $100usd.

the following video on sudden hearing loss aired on public television stations nationwide and was sponsored by the American Hearing Research Foundation: ua-cam.com/video/K5Iuhtkcq6w/v-deo.html

Problem is, you never know if an audiologist is recommending a brand which gives them the most profit, or a brand that is tied into their business in some way. I use Unitron, but I have no idea why my audiologist recommended them, and I have never compared them to any other brand.

I do not agree. It's all sales hype. I have up to now had two different types of hearing aids. And they are just very expensive little amplifiers. It's all just a rip off.

And HOW do we find such a professional?

I think anxiety plays a role in my success with hearing aids and functioning in small groups. I know my anxiety does make a big difference in my tinnitus and when my tinnitus is very loud, my speech recognition goes down. battery life and low energy Bluetooth improvements are making life easier and semm to be rapidly improving.

Great video.

The thing that puzzles me is background noise in one situation is not background noise in another. For instance an auto mechanic needs to hear what may be perceived as background noise by a chip. Defining background noise is a tall order that each situation dictates. I have severe hearing loss and tried hearing aids and found them more irritating than I cared for but it may be time to see what is if a suitable aids is out there now.

I have Oticon Real. I keep hearing about boosting those I want to hear and reducing those I don’t. I do not get that. The people at the table sound muted, while the background noise is amplified. I can tell what the conversation is with people sitting way over the other side of the room. I’ve had this result with Oticon More, Own and now Real.

I am a drummer, and just recently at the age of 71 and now afflicted with severe tinnitus and hearing loss and high frequencies. I need something to deal with the tinnitus as well as best as possible. However, my family reminded me that EMF‘s are a concern with Bluetooth hearing aids, so can you even get hearing aids without Bluetooth? And of course if you do, you’re not gonna have any control of your settings.

Love Bluetooth. Better battery life would be wonderful. I know i get 12 hours of streaming and that’s pretty amazing. If i could get 16 hours,this would make my day.

Over the course of the days, i may receive phone calls from an iPhone, iPad, Galaxy A53 5G and a landline. I also have an Apple Watch. Sometimes, it’s still easier for me to let the caller go to voicemail than figure out how to answer the call. I am hoping in time this will get easier and i can answer in real time.

I investigated OTC hearing aids, even the new Rx types now on the market, but after having my hearing test results (moderate in one ear/severe in the other) and the various public conditions I am in during the week I realized I needed ones from my audiologist to ensure proper fit and performance. I'm willing to spend the higher cost to ensure maximum performance, and the follow-up for adjustments and even substitutions if needed that are part of the service. I just ordered them this past week and am looking forward to their delivery.

I know that there are android lovers and Apple lovers. Bluetooth has definitely been a game changer for me. It seems to connect my iPhone and iPad seamlessly. It’s a great improvement to be able to hear speech through both ears. It provides a lot more clarity for speech. I will have to upgrade my Apple Watch to be able to use some features. I am really new to all this technology and I still get flustered every time my iPhone rings and figuring out what device to answer.

All made in China?

Very true

Great tips. Good things to try as background noise can often be an issue.

I am in so many high risk groups,deciding to treat my hearing loss with hearing aids was a no brainer. Since 1974, Four members of my immediate family developed dementia and three had untreated hearing loss. Three have had heart murmurs. Two suffered from, obesity , type 2 diabetes, and hypertension. Three smoked. One had treatment resistant depression. Three hadn’t graduated from high school. Since most of my immediate family lived through their 90%, I plan to be in the category where less people develop dementia.

Well, it certainly matters which hairdresser you choose.

The ability to make changes to suit the client makes it easier to improve one’s performance and satisfaction with hearing aid use. Hearing aids are not like eyeglasses. Each individual hearing loss is unique. I doubt that a cookie cutter OTC device would work well for me. Also, i am not geeky enough to make optimal changes to manufacturer’s specifications. I had to watch 4 different UA-cam videos to be able program my Airpod Pros. I am more comfortable with assistance of a trained professional.

Interesting video . I have had tinnitus constantly since 1982. Since getting hearing aids, I have actually had two quiet days.

So Interesting

Agreed!!! Out of all brands I tried, Widex is absolutely the best for musicians,.. Widex is one of a kind with the hearing aid technology, plus any other features that all other manufacturers have,.. I feel like all other technologies are all extremely similar among every manufacturer and device, (at the same tier levels) except for the musical accommodations that Widex has
