Hey everyone! It’s Dr. Shopovick, and today we will be reviewing speech-in-noise testing. So, we all know that a standalone hearing test does not really give us the full picture on how well you perform in noisy situations such as a restaurant, which is why we integrate a really important test called the QUICKSIN into our hearing test protocol… Continue reading

Hi, I’m Dr. Egan from Now Hear This, and today I’m going to talk to you about our newest equipment, our hearing aid ReDux dryer system.
One of the biggest enemies of hearing aids is moisture. All hearing aids experience moisture in the ear canal, but especially in North Carolina, we face even more.

So far, it has saved multiple sets of hearing aids from having to go out for repair, because it was able to remove all the moisture itself… Continue reading
