Do you have a wide
variety of technology and styles of hearing aids?
Yes, we offer all styles from behind-the-ear to the tiny completely-in-the-canal
instruments. Also available are many levels of technology which vary from
basic linear to the latest advanced multi memory digital instruments.
Just which is best for you depends on your individual hearing
loss and your personal needs. Your audiogram, budget, manual dexterity as
well as the appearence and options you want must
all be coordinated to find the right aid for you. Back to top
How much do hearing
aids cost?
Hearing aids are customized for each individual. They are not items which you
can fit yourself. It takes skill, knowledge and care on the part of the
audiologist to assist you. The actual "purchase" of hearing aids
also includes the evaluation, diagnosis, verification measures, counselling
and follow-up services. In other words, hearing aids are only a part of the
whole.
Price depends upon the style, circuit and selected options. At
Advanced Hearing Solutions, the price of a hearing aid may range from
approximately $900 to over $3900. It includes the hearing aid as well as the
whole package of services for testing, fitting and follow-up care.
If you get a "deal" from a
clinic which offers very low prices, but then have to pay for follow-up
elsewhere, you really didn't get a deal in the first place. Back to top
What comes with the
original purchase of a hearing aid?
At Advanced Hearing Solutions, we supply you with a case, cleaning tools,
instruction manual, batteries and warranty for repairs. Multiple appointments
will be offered to you during the first two months of hearing aid use as well
as a maintenance program, consisting of hearing aid check-ups to contribute
to long-term success. Audiograms and fine tuning / reprogramming are also
provided at no charge during the first two years. Back to top
Can hearings be
returned if not satisfactory?
All hearing instruments purchased at Advanced Hearing Solutions come with a
60 day adjustment period. If you have unforseen
problems after trying the hearing aid, you can either return the instrument
for a refund or switch to another aid during the first 60 days. There are no return
or restocking fees. Back to top
