You get your eyes and teeth checked regularly, why not have your hearing checked regularly as well?? The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends that anyone aged 50 years and over have a hearing screen. Increasing age is the most important risk factor for hearing loss. Other risk factors include a history of exposure to loud noises or ototoxic agents (including occupational exposures), genetic factors, and certain systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus. Call us today to schedule your hearing evaluation!

Today is World Hearing Day!

The World Health Organization predicts that by the year 2050, there will be 900 million people in the world with hearing loss. By creating World Hearing Day, the World Health Organization is raising awareness on how to prevent hearing loss and promote ear and hearing care across the world. We need to take action now by
*allocating resources for health care
*ensuring access to hearing technologies and communication services and
*regulating sound exposure

We are a day late on this one, but did you know that 10 of our past U.S. Presidents had a hearing loss? The most famous one may be Ronald Reagan who, by wearing a hearing aid himself while in office, encouraged more widespread acceptance of hearing aids and reduced the stigma associated with hearing loss at that time.

We often get asked by patients in our office why we fit Oticon hearing aids. I tell my patients that one of the many reasons we fit Oticon hearing aids is because of the excellent patient feedback we receive on them. I have personally fit a family member with Oticon hearing aids and I would only fit them with what I thought was the best hearing aid on the market for their hearing loss and their needs. I am so glad to hear that we are not the only ones who believe our patients prefer the sound quality of Oticon!
