Hearing Aids: Here’s What You Need to Know About Them

Presenter: Neil Bauman, Ph.D.

Getting the right hearing aids for your hearing loss, lifestyle and pocketbook is often both stressful and confusing, especially if you are buying your first hearing aids.

Do you know which of the many styles and options of hearing aids are the best for your specific lifestyle? Do you know the one feature that every hearing aid should have—but few do? Do you know what you can and cannot reasonably expect from hearing aids? Do you know how long the different kinds of hearing aids typically last and which styles are more reliable? Do you know what questions you should ask your audiologist or hearing aid dispenser before you buy a hearing aid? Do you ever wonder if you should wear one or two hearing aids? Do you know the best way to adapt to wearing hearing aids?

Learn the answers to these and other questions about hearing aids as Dr. Neil guides you though this minefield.

Dr. Neil is no stranger to hearing aids. He was born with a severe loss and has worn hearing aids for more than 50 years. As a result, he knows the pitfalls awaiting the unwary person.

"The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life [which also includes perfect hearing] through Jesus Christ our Lord." [Romans 6:23]

"But know this, in the last days perilous times will come" [2 Timothy 3:1]. "For there will be famines, pestilences, and [severe] earthquakes in various places" [Matthew 24:7], "distress of nations, the sea and the waves roaring"—tsunamis, hurricanes—Luke 21:25, but this is good news if you have put your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, for "when these things begin to happen, lift up your heads [and rejoice] because your redemption draws near" [Luke 21:28].
