CHOOSE YOUR AUDIOLOGIST CAREFULLY

Work closely with your audiologist and by all means find one that you like. If you are like me, I have had to work with someone for 25 years and I’ve had a couple that I didn’t like. In one case, I was convinced to buy a mini-in-the-ear hearing aid only to have problem after problem. It drove me nuts and when I changed offices, I discovered that they were trying to put way too much circuitry into a small hearing aid and it wasn’t enough space for all the wires. He complained because I was constantly bringing the hearing aids in for repair and made me feel like the problem was actually me. The fact of the matter is that he couldn't admit that he made a mistake. So, if you find one that is not actually taking a personal interest in you find another one.
