A new patient recently visited my office having been discouraged by his past experiences with hearing instruments. This gentleman had worked in the entertainment industry for many years. He had used several different sets of hearing aids, but none ever provided him with the solution he yearned for. He complained that his own voice sounded hollow and he never understood speech when background noise was present. Furthermore, he reported that he had to “fake it all the time” when speaking with colleagues. His assistants would take notes and pass on the information to him in written form so he could stay in communication with his co-workers, or they would repeat was said after the conversation was over.
After a thorough evaluation of his hearing loss, I recommended Widex Mind 440 completely-in-the-canal hearing instruments. Two weeks later, at the initial fitting, he and his wife were astounded how well he could understand speech in quiet and in a variety of background noises. At his first follow-up session, he reported that he no longer had to rely on his assistants to fill him in about happenings at work. He was able to understand everything at home, on television and even had no difficulties when attending a “monster truck” show in a closed arena. Life had completely transformed for this gentleman. He had become more productive on the job, the stress he had been experiencing had virtually disappeared and he made life easier for those with whom he interacted.
The Widex Mind 440 is just one of several premium product lines we offer. All state-of-the-art instruments, such as the Mind, restore the quality of hearing you need to enjoy listening to and participating in life again. Feel free to give us a call to schedule a demonstration.
