Hearing Aids at
Quednau Hearing
Our approach to hearing aids is based on our hearing instrument specialist’s first-hand experience wearing them. We understand what patients like you need to get the most out of your hearing aids, and we know how important it is to be comfortable and satisfied with your hearing aid. We take the time to explain everything to you.
We only work with the best hearing aid brands on the market.
All of these manufacturers make reliable, high-quality hearing aids. It’s just a matter of figuring out which of them has the best technology for what you need.
Finding the Right Hearing Aid
At Quednau Hearing, we want you to be satisfied with your hearing aids. We don’t try to upsell the most expensive hearing aids — our focus is on you and how we can best help with your specific needs. There are several factors we have to consider when we fit you with hearing aids:
- What is your hearing loss like? Is it mild, moderate, severe, or profound? Does it affect both ears? Do you have difficulty understanding speech? Do you have tinnitus (ringing in the ears)?
- What is your lifestyle like? Do you spend most of your time at home in quiet areas with friends and family, or are you often on the move in noisy, crowded environments?
- What do you want out of hearing aids?
- Do you have difficulty handling small devices? Would you benefit from rechargeable batteries?
- What's your budget? Do you want top-of-the-line technology, or will something more standard still give you a great experience?
Hearing Aid Styles
When it comes to hearing aids, smaller isn’t always better. Each hearing aid style has its own ups and downs. If you think you want a tiny custom-fit hearing aid, we encourage you to consider whether that’s the best fit or not. People often find that all hearing aids we carry are more invisible than they expect, even the devices that fit behind your ear. Try to bring an open mind and work with us to find the best solution for you.
Patients often prefer the receiver-in-canal models because they’re comfortable and versatile, and they are often Bluetooth-capable. We also love that they can be easily adapted if your hearing loss progresses; we can just change the receiver to address your new hearing loss, so you won’t have to purchase new devices.
Hearing Aid Follow-Up
After you’re fit with your hearing aids:
- We bring you in one week later to test how comfortable you are with your hearing aids and make any necessary adjustments. Usually, you will be more comfortable with your hearing aids by this point and we can turn the levels up a little.
- We bring you back on the second, third, and fourth week for continued adjustment and support. Since you have a 45-day risk-free trial period, we want to make sure you have every opportunity to get the most out of your hearing aids during this time. We'll also raise the levels until you're up to your full prescription.
- We schedule ongoing follow-up appointments every three months or every six months, depending on your preference and your comfort.
- You're welcome to schedule an appointment with us as needed at any time.
