i am getting phonak. I don't have a cell phone as unusual as this sounds, so that sort of stuff is not needed for me. :) but thank you. I also have two horses and am more of a country life style person so it's all good. :) however the remote is necessary so i can adjust volume. ^^

thank you. :)

Finally some good news. I switched audiologists and said I was never going to go back there to that other place ever again. This place was much more professional and the test lasted longer than ten minutes. Little did i know the place i had complained about has been getting numerous complaints...

Hi there. I'm new too and getting hearing aids, had a bad experience with a previous audiologist but found a new place. Check my posts out about how i was treated. :O Congrats on the new bundle of joy and i hope all is well :)! I'm not sure if I can help you out but if you are comfortable you...

Thank you!! I thought so too. It was just her behaviour during the whole thing that really put me off. I really think she is not used to people realizing they are not going to get what they want. I think, I might be wrong on this though; her attitude was my way or the highway. I do agree with...

My thoughts exactly. I went back in there and told them i wasn't going to sign the paper quite calmly until i get what i want and then they had the guts to call my doctor back and say i was bad tempered and apparently yelling (I was assertive, but nowhere near yelling Talk about black mailing...

hello. and it's okay, i make bad puns all the time :3! It has been quite a battle. I mean something that's supposed to be helping me and she seems to want to do only what she wants and not listen to the person's needs or desires? I expressed to Dad we are trying a new place and he agreed. I...

thanks! I don't know why she suddenly got snappy with me like that, even worse when I stood my ground! I don't think they're used to people saying what they want when it comes to that company. Sometimes I think when they are on commission I'm guessing they can get pretty ugly, can't say as I...

actually there wound up being quite a scuffle.The audiologist once again refused to do what was given to her on the doctor's sheet. I said to her, "I'm not signing this myself until I get what I want." The secretary on the other hand was very sweet in nature agreed with me. Since she kept...

This has happened to me twice. I had full mold with hook hearing aids and they worked just fine for me. I liked them the first time but some idiot changed it into slim tubes without my say so and because my ear canals are small that hurt my ears! I still have those old things but won't use them...

had a great appointment and was treated with a warm welcome and treated like a family member more than just a person searching for a hearing aid. However colour selections were limited and as i suspected I am moderate hearing loss! Last place I went at accused me blatantly of faking my hearing...

Ah okay. Thank you though. ^^ I hope these new ones will work better than the last. Thank you! I like to wear these colours quite often for my clothes which is why i chose these. I get to see the audiologist tomorrow. :) It's also the assessment day but the secretary said there's one user they...

I think I finally settled on a pair of colours for my hearing aids! Thanks again for sharing that chart. Yellow ear mold and blue behind the ear! :) Maybe there might be purple swirled in with the yellow :D I have also heard it can be quite a shock when you hear better (but I think that varies)...

ah alright thanks. I just don't remember my last fitting very well. Thanks again for your helpful information. ^^

thanks again! I'm feeling even more at ease now. I wasn't sure how the out come was going (and i won't until i get them) to be but with someone i can relate to is really easy to talk to about this and be better prepared. ^^ I just saw the sheet! There are so many colours to choose from! :O...

I hear getting a hearing aid is called a fitting but it doesn't come over night of course! Can someone tell me what the process is like please at least a little bit? I know there's a hearing test before hand though. The secretary explained about the test to me on the phone but that was it...

Hi there. I hope your day is going well. Oh no! . Sorry to hear about that! Thank you for your response though! I was a bit worried that they might feel heavy but it sounds like they will be quite nice! Purple sounds really cool! I was also told i should be prepared need two even though...

Hi there. I am new here and getting hearing aids. I thought it might be good to find people i can relate to to talk about some issues I have questions with. I had a pair of very old painful hearing aids and I'm getting new ones! Open ones and i can't hear a thing out of them! I need a full ear...
