Huge waste of money. My partner was told over the phone that they would treat my specific issue, but they literally did nothing except tell me what I already knew. So I'm over $160 down with nothing to show for it. Nothing to help cope or anything (which is what I came for). The doctor is uninterested in the patient's experience, and just goes by what they learned in some class. There's no care for what it's like for the people actually going through it, and what work patients have done themselves towards staying informed and helping themselves. I'd have no idea what my diagnosis was without the people online, because nobody ever explained to me that there was a difference between tinnitus and pulsatile tinnitus. Do yourselves a favor and look at sites such as tinnitustalk and whooshers if you actually want to sympathize with people and what they're going through. I've gotten better service from small sellers on Etsy for low-cost items, who were actually interested in my experience and stayed active in our particular community. She said she would get resources for me and reach out via email (I have extreme phone anxiety and memory issues, so I said I needed email and she said ok) but surprise surprise, that never happened. I added an extra star because at least the people at the front were nice and helpful.

Dr. Land was very thorough in testing, and took time to explain the test results and treatment plan in great detail. I am very pleased with my new hearing devices. It was worth the 5 hour drive from my home in Arkansas to come to this clinic.

Questions & Answers

At what age do people normally start getting hearing loss?

Since hearing loss is cumulative, hearing loss begins as an infant and continues throughout life. Most individuals don't begin experiencing symptoms until their late 20s or early 30s, and by age 45 a yearly hearing check becomes of greater importance. One-third of people beyond the age of 65 have some degree of hearing loss, however mild or severe, and that share of the elderly population increases as they age.

How can I prevent hearing loss?

Protecting your hearing from noise levels greater than 85 decibels at work and during leisurely activities will greatly reduce your chance of noise-induced hearing loss. Many manufacturing jobs require hearing protection in loud environments, but hearing protection is also recommended while ATV riding, hunting, attending concerts and sporting events, and playing music - all situations where your hearing is vulnerable.

Is hearing loss hereditary?

Hearing loss is a puzzle that our professionals love to solve, and it is based on your individual experiences, lifestyle, and severity of impairment. There is no one-size-fits-all treatment method for hearing loss - it's based on the sounds that you can't hear, which vary greatly , and the sounds that you want to be able to hear. A quality hearing system from a reputable manufacturer isn't effective until an experiences, qualified hearing care professional programs the technology properly based on your unique hearing needs.

Will Medicare pay for my hearing care needs?

Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) will cover the diagnostic hearing and balance exams only if your primary care physician order these tests based on symptoms, conditions, or complaints that would require medical treatment. Medicare does not currently cover regular hearing exams or treatment, including hearing aids or exams for fitting hearing aids.
