In an ongoing series, we shine a spotlight on our happy customers – giving them the chance to share the potential benefits of Online Hearing Care with you. This month, Ruth, a first-time hearing aid user
“When I first got in touch with Online Hearing Care, I was new to everything audiology. It was somewhat surprising when I began noticing tell tale signs before the age of 50, but I was eventually assured to learn that the majority of people’s hearing begins to waver slightly after 40,” Ruth professes. “Still, as I often tell my own patients, a positive attitude goes a long way.”
Working in the medical field herself, Ruth is more often on the other end of the caregiving process.
“Communication is so paramount for me at work, but surprisingly, it was the prospect of my social life disappearing that I was most saddened by. I suppose, with so little time for it, I value every moment I can take with family and friends,” Ruth continues. “I found Online Hearing Care’s flexible remote model to be so appealing for those same reasons.”
When Ruth explained her situation, we were able to work around her schedule comfortably. She ordered a Home Assessment Box and then, when she’d ordered a pair of Phonak P50R hearing aids, we arranged her fitting and calibration at a time she wasn’t on call.
“I’ve been using my devices for a few months now and I can’t express what a world of difference they’ve made. I hadn’t fully acknowledged the extent of what I’d been missing out on, but I do feel that I’d begun to close myself off somewhat from friends. Now, I see my relationships with friends and family better than ever,” Ruth effuses. “If I had to summarise, I feel like hearing aids have given me an entirely new lease of life.”
And it’s not just Ruth. We’ve seen the transformative power regaining one’s sense of hearing has time and time again. If you feel it’s time you experienced the same, get in touch today.
