Small family business provides better service than a main chain
“…I thought, okay, I’ll try my chances with an independent clinic, and Oracle Hearing’s name came to mind. After my first consultation with Oracle I was confident that this time it would work, and it did. Minoti and Shantanu asked about the problems I had with the previous aids, and tested to make sure all was okay with the new ones. They heard what I was telling them. I think the previous clinic listened, but didn’t hear; they just seemed to want to sell.
Minoti and Shantanu are delightful and so helpful. They were very professional and caring, and worked well with me. I tell my friends that they have the patience to listen and sort out a working solution. Their after-care service is excellent; the door is always open for ongoing care and support.”
Why is maintaining your hearing so important?
Hearing well is integral to our well-being. It allows us to communicate with the people around us and connects us to our environment. Hearing loss can happen due to several factors, the most common of which is ageing and the other is exposure to loud noise.
An untreated hearing loss may be detrimental to our health. It can lead to a sense of isolation and reduced social contact. It can significantly affect the quality of our life. Research also indicates that there is an association between hearing loss and dementia.
When is it time to get your hearing tested?
Often hearing loss happens gradually over a number of years so we often don’t realise that we are not hearing as well.
Here are some key indicators for you, as a quick self-assessment:
- You are concerned that you are not hearing as well as you used to.
- You need to turn up the volume on your TV or radio while others in the room complain that it’s too loud.
- Your family and friends are making comments about your hearing.
- It sounds like people are mumbling.
- You have to ask people to repeat what they said.
- You are having difficulties hearing during meetings at work.
- You are finding it difficult to hear in situations where more than one person speaks at a time.
