If you’ve noticed that you can hear people talking but can’t understand what they’re saying, the issue isn’t volume; it’s speech clarity. This is one of the most common signs of hearing loss, especially in the high frequencies where consonants live.

A professional hearing evaluation identifies which frequencies are affected so we can match you with technology built to restore clarity, not just loudness. Improving speech understanding can make conversations easier, reduce listening fatigue, and help you stay connected throughout the holiday season and beyond.

Schedule your hearing evaluation today and take the first step toward clearer communication.

Living in a vibrant city can be a thrilling experience, but it's critical to be mindful of potential risks to your hearing. And some cities pose an even greater risk of hearing loss.

But don't fret! You can still enjoy the city life while protecting your hearing. Here's what you can do to reduce the risk of premature hearing loss:

1️⃣ Utilize earmuffs, earplugs, and other protective devices in noisy environments, like sporting venues or restaurants.
2️⃣ Limit prolonged time spent in places with sources of loud noise, like transportation hubs, recreation areas, construction sites, and nightclubs.
3️⃣ Keep the volume on your personal audio devices at a moderate level to prevent damage to your ears.
4️⃣ Maintain regular hearing evaluations to monitor your hearing health and address any concerns promptly.

Remember, prevention is the key!

Colder weather brings dry air, static, and temperature changes that can affect how hearing aids perform. Even small shifts in humidity can lead to crackling sounds, weak batteries, or inconsistent performance.

A quick maintenance check can help prevent these issues before they start. We’ll clean your devices, check internal components, and make sure your settings are optimized for seasonal changes.

Good hearing shouldn’t depend on the weather,; solid maintenance keeps your devices reliable year-round.

Schedule your hearing aid check today and keep your sound quality consistent this season.

American Sign Language (ASL), common in the U.S., parts of Canada, and elsewhere, is one version of this multifaceted communication form.

Tinnitus, the ringing, buzzing, or hissing sound no one else hears, is often linked to underlying hearing loss. When the auditory system loses access to sound, the brain overcompensates by producing noise. That’s why treating tinnitus starts with evaluating hearing.

The first step is a diagnostic hearing test to determine whether sound deprivation is contributing to your tinnitus. If it is, amplification through hearing aids can restore missing sound input and reduce tinnitus awareness. For additional relief, sound therapy and tinnitus features built into modern devices can help calm the auditory system.

Tinnitus doesn’t have to control your focus, sleep, or peace of mind. Schedule a tinnitus evaluation today and take the first step toward long-term relief.
