I traced my hearing loss back to the 1970s during a loud DIY home project, though it only truly affected me in the past decade. I noticed challenges interpreting certain sounds, such as theatrical productions and group conversations. Despite not being perfect, hearing aids have significantly improved my ability to function in these settings. Initially, I had vain concerns about hearing aids being too noticeable, but few people noticed or cared. I also worried about maintaining them and heard stories about losing them or battery mishaps—these fears were unfounded. My first impression of Beck Hearing. was that they were caring, thorough, and professional. Now, I'm comfortable admitting my need for aids, especially when dealing with certain voice levels or whispers, and I'm happy they fill in the sounds I might have missed. If you're worried about your hearing, I strongly advise you to get tested to understand your level of hearing or loss. My favorite aspect of working with Beck Hearing is their easy, convenient appointment scheduling and prompt resolution of any issues.
