Confidently Hear
Again at home, in restaurants, while watching tv and movies
in 12 Weeks
Our Hearing Wellness Plan is designed to guide you and allows you to start acting smarter and more involved in the conversation at the very first appointment. You'll find that you can stop worrying about people noticing that you’re wearing hearing aids or that you'll have to spend too much money.
If you're the average person who's struggling to hear and looking to reduce stress, improve listening abilities, and have more energy, then you probably already know that you need to wear hearing aids.
Hey there!
Whether you’re a working professional, stay at home mom or someone who retired from actively working, I'm sure you've heard all of this before.
So, I'll spare you the spiel.
No need to be a broken record and convince you of something that’s already been drilled deep into your consumer's mind. After all, you probably already KNOW that hearing better is the key tipping point that will allow you to use less energy to engage in conversations, improve your mental health, and possibly reduce your chances of developing dementia.
You probably already heard that there are some links between untreated hearing loss with depression as well as dementia.
I'm here to help you lessen these risks. I'd love to work with you!
Warm regards,
Dawn Heiman, AuD
Here's What You Might Not Know About
Even if you’re lucky enough to have a family member repeat things for you, hearing aids can...
Make You Feel More Confident
Even if you feel fine and happy now, once you have successfully been properly fitted with hearing aids can change your perception and authority of conversations skyrockets, allowing you to quickly jump into conversations and engage with others.
Significantly Boost the Number of Places You Can Hear
It’s invaluable to correctly hear, and understand, someone at the bank, store and doctor’s office. Miscommunication about your health and finances can lead to detrimental side effects, which could be avoided.
Help You Be Happier
Hearing loss can lead to social isolation and depression.
Being involved in activities with others and leading conversations with friends and family helps us connect. And it's an added bonus when we are able to learn about their latest exciting adventures . Priceless.
Even though the reasons to go see an audiologist and start wearing hearing aids are a complete no brainer, the process involved in actually doing it is ANYTHING BUT.
Ready for hearing aids? AWESOME.
But where do I start?
Perhaps in your most courageous moments you've made the commitment to schedule an appointment.
You’ve researched hearing aids and clinics online, asked your friends and family their opinions, chosen a place to go, gotten all giddy over what benefits hearing better will bring, and maybe even started talking about how great it will be to hear better.
If you’re super committed, maybe you researched your insurance benefits and put some money aside for hearing aids, assuring yourself that you’d use it in the mystical (yet elusive) “someday”.
But even with the best intentions, most would-be patients end up procrastinating calling and allow themselves to remain on the sidelines of conversations the next time they see friends for dinner.
Here’s why most would-be patients fail to schedule an appointment with an Audiologist:
Here’s why this is irreversibly crippling. As an already busy person with large to do lists, people to serve, appointments to attend and maybe even a full time job, you literally can’t afford not to schedule an appointment.
And the longer you wait, the harder it is to continue at the rate you are going.
Therefore, seeing an Audiologist, getting the hearing corrected right the first time is one of the biggest priorities you have.
Once you are hearing better, you will find that all the other things become more manageable. You have more energy. You are more helpful to others. Your daily routine becomes more joyful.
Lucky for you, you are reading this and finding out what most people don’t realize. You will be happier once your hearing is improved.
In all likelihood, you have tried different over the counter amplifiers or TV headphones, that have helped in some ways, but fell short of your needs.
Which means…..
Even if you’re late to the party, there’s still the golden opportunity for you to jump in, correct your hearing (and get back to your normal self).
That is ...it's never too late to start acting younger again and simply hear without stress, worry or anxiety.
Four Reasons Hearing Aids Don't Work
Here's the bad stuff
Anything that is sent to you via online order will not be able to take the above items into consideration. You will get what you get and that’s it!! Mild hearing loss=you get x.
Severe hearing loss=you get x. Identical.
Time to respect the 8 years of education and the 2000 clinical hours with direct patient care that goes into a new Audiologist. Seasoned ones, like Dr. Heiman, get to add 20 years of experience on top of that.
Have you ever met up with someone whom you know has hearing loss and hearing aids, but they aren’t wearing them? They keep asking you to repeat yourself and they respond to your statements and questions inappropriately. They respond slower and miss a lot, don’t they? You’re thinking: I wish they would put their hearing aids on so we could have a normal conversation…..
If you have a hearing loss, but it’s corrected with hearing aids, you act sharper and younger. People don’t notice the hearing aids- they notice you!
Those who put their hearing aids in the drawer and only wear them for “certain occasions” don’t do well because they haven’t been practicing..their brain doesn’t know what to do with the information.
There is a process of not just hearing basic sounds. Unlike other places, we don’t believe you are here to simply buy hearing aids, sell them to you, and then wish you as you try your best to use them.
We work hard to walk you through a pre-calculated method/program that is designed to help retrain your auditory system to hear its best. We believe the key is in the expert that not only knows how to fit your prescription, but how to walk you through your auditory rehab process.
Just putting on an amplifier only and every time you go to a noisy place is not going to allow you to hear. Over the Counter (OTC) devices give you base (volume), but may not help with clarity.
Directional microphones help give some voices precedence, however, you may need a rehab program to help you do this best.
You need some guides to help you do your best with an impaired organ. As long as you can avoid many of these biggest blunders, the path to best hearing is yours. Barriers to effective communication are high.
Our program is one that helps rehab your auditory processing system, gives you the coaching tips, and tricks you need to be a successful hearing aid user.
At Advanced Audiology Consultants, our program is designed to give you a path that will help you achieve hearing success.
Shhhhh ...I'm going to let you in on a little secret
Even though hearing loss effects a massive amount of people around the world- the level of care and expertise in attempting to correct the hearing loss is not an evenly distributed one.
A few people will get GREAT results, while others feel deflated and as if they sort of hear better.
And the main reason for this, as you’ve likely seen by now, is that the barriers to hearing better are relatively LOW….
…..The barriers towards EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION are fairly high.
But as long as you can avoid the biggest blunders that sink most hearing aid wearers, the path is paved for you and your future is bright.
One that allows you to achieve more independence and freedom, happier outlook on life, more social opportunities and the ability to choose what you want to hear and what you don’t want to hear.
The key ingredient to all of this is an Audiologist that knows their stuff!
And with your permission, I’d love to show you how we do it.
