Do you Trust these Best Hearing Aid Ranking Websites?
Great video. Have you ever reviewed the Lively hearing aids? The tele-health model is quite appealing to me due to my lifestyle. (Full time RVer)
If you have reviewed them, could you link that video. If not, do you plan to review them soon!
Please keep the great videos coming. Thanks
We had some success with utilizing our Consumer Reports subscription to research prior to purchasing hearing aids for my mom. They did a good job of breaking down features and allowed us to see which features would be the best "fit" for her wants/needs. The fact that CR doesn't receive advertising $ was also a big help…
I love your thumbnail. 😂😂😂 Your awesome!
My audiologist will tell me what she feels will be the hearing aid to suit my needs, pull up the information on the hearing and we go over it.
The best hearing aid I've used so far was suggested by a really good audiologist who was much more thorough than others I've seen in the past. Phonak was the suggestion made. They worked so much better for me than any other I've ever used. More comfortable as well. I've worn Oticon, Unitron, and Siemens before being put into Phonak BTE.
I love bright colored hearing aids. 😆 I also choose a bright color so that if it comes out when I'm figure skating, I can find it before someone's blade does.
I got a call so fast I don't know if it's a scam , cause I mentioned I am a pensioner the caller I spoke to was very reluctant was not to assist but money was the problem
So where do we go from here in regards to getting new hearing aids?
Please advise
Cheers
In addition, the hearing aid companies and the audiologists that sell the products will NOT disclose the price of a hearing aid. You have to schedule a consultation so they can pressure you into a sale with exorbitant profit margins. Don't believe me? Try to find the price of ANY model if you can (not amplifiers like Lively, etc.)
Was at one of these sites only 12 hours ago. Did some hearing tests and was immediately called for follow up purchasing. It’s a horrible minefield and discouraging for those of us who are looking online for hearing aid info for the first time.
Wow
nope
An honest expression of opinion,God Bless you,thanks
And to be even more startling this is happening in lots of other industries: software, digital Televisions, musical keyboard rankings and more. Also many reviews are paid reviews. Vendors give free products for stellar reviews which are really just ads. So the work you do with hearing aids counters that in this space, thank you for that.
So what's the best hearing aid.
Thank you!
Looking for hearing aids and I quickly came to the conclusion that the whole market is full of pirates….
Great job 🙏🏾
Good job
Hi Doctor Cliff, I really appreciate your videos! Thank you for this. I have to ask you something. Can you advise/recommend any good trusty hearing audiologist here in the San Jose Ca or around the bay area. Planning to get one so I can hear properly. Thank you for your response and happy holidays.
Maybe a little remorseful of the double bird. ?
Great information dr Cliff. I bought hearing aids from supposedly one of the top hearing aid manufacturers in the world. They never suited my hearing loss. I had the audiologist out to visit and make alterations but they couldn’t get it right. I even had a visit from a one of the manufacturers representatives. He made the matter even worse. In the end they offered me the latest hearing aids at a reduced price, which I had to fight for. They could not adjust the new hearing aids to suit my hearing loss needs. It is so frustrating that I spent thousands of £s – Sterling, on these hearing aids, but they are of no use to me.
Are you saying this doesn't happen at an Audiologist practice??? I find it difficult to believe that's the case either. I think the prices of hearing aids are so far off the charts that many who need the device can't afford them. I fear this might be worse when Medicare helps pay.
I’ve worn HAs for 37 years. Sadly, soon as OTC Hearing Aids are approved (one day) in the US, it’ll get even worse as everybody under the sun will be trying to pushing their products claiming to be “#1 ranked Hearing Aid in such and such list” and people will get even more confused and fall for this predatory type of advertisement.
One of the biggest reasons why I’m not overly keen on OTC cause it’s not going reduce pricing of major brands. It’ll just make an even bigger mess of the choices and potentially harm folks who do not know better.
Dr. Cliff can you do a video on hearing loss and NF
Hey doc , Can SSHL happen again ? I already have it in my left ear. Scared about another episode .
Great video Dr. Cliff. Very good info! Wish you were closer I’d make an appointment if you were taking new clients.
