NYE Part 3 – Hearing Aid Fitting – Premier Audiology (Houston Hearing Cares)
The time has finally arrived, after months (or years) of debating if you should take the first step, you did. You made the appointment, went to the visit and after sitting through a few tests, have chosen the perfect hearing aid. Now, you got the call that the device you and your area audiologist decided upon is finally ready in Houston, Texas.
Before you arrive to the office, your audiologist in Houston will unbox the hearing aid and use a computer program to set it up with your hearing loss preferences. When you arrive for your visit the hearing aid will be all ready to turn on.
After making sure the hearing aid fits comfortably in your ear, it will be turned on. Things may sound weird; you probably aren’t used to hearing all the sounds of Houston. Your audiologist will perform a few tests to make sure the hearing aid is picking up and amplifying sounds to the right level.
Your audiologist will then explain how to use any of the advanced features your hearing aid contains. These can normally be customized to fit your lifestyle. You will learn the proper care and maintenance for your hearing aid; this will help keep the device working to its full potential for as long as possible.
This sounds like a lot of information. The good news is, before leaving the office you will schedule a follow up visit. This visit is just to check in to see how the hearing aid is working for you and to see if anything needs to be adjusted. You can also contact your audiologist’s office anytime if you have any questions once you leave.
Houston has a 30-day return period for hearing aids. This ensures if you are not happy with the device you purchased after trying it out, that’s ok! You can return the device and work with your audiologist to figure out which design will work better for your level of hearing loss.
