How to choose a hearing aid. Which hearing aids are the best?

There are so many great products available today it's hard to say that one hearing aid brand or style stands alone as the best available. There are manufacturers that provide better products for different hearing loss configurations than others. In my practice the product recommendation is driven by patient requirements. For example, if wireless connectivity is required I'll use ReSound. If a bi-cros is required I may use Starkey, Oticon, or Phonak. Other times I may be restricted by insurance providers like Humana that offer a discount plan administered through a third party such as HearUSA which is owned by Siemens. Of course Siemens has an approved product list with their own price schedule.

It is important to remember the service and trust factors when purchasing a hearing aid. Never allow yourself to be pressured and or make decisions based on "the deal of the week". Also, don't allow yourself to be restricted by insurance or memberships. Competitive markets provide the best products at the best price with the best service. You deserve the best and I am honored to provide it.
