Success Stories
“I
talk with more people now than ever before.”
I
had standard technology hearing aids which did not meet my needs
and then my audiologist recommended my new programmable hearing
aids. I think that they are great. I talk with more people now
than ever before. It’s just amazing the change in my lifestyle
these new aids have brought about.”
I
recommend Island Hearing to everyone. I already have several
times. For example I was at a dance and met someone with hearing
aids who was always adjusting his aids, while I could sit back and
relax. I am very happy with my hearing aids because they make me
very comfortable in hearing, better than I did before. Also, if
I go dancing or to a party I can sit comfortably and hear what people
say, as well as the music. I have flexibility with my hearing aids;
I find in a group I can switch to a 2nd program.

“I’m a part of it again and I couldn’t
be happier!”
“I
was missing out on family conversations and my children noticed
it first. My oldest daughters began complaining that I didn’t hear
what they were saying. Then, my husband agreed.
When
I found out I had a hearing loss, I was devastated because I associated
hearing loss with senior citizens. I was also frustrated because
I didn’t do anything major to damage my hearing, I didn’t go to
too many rock concerts and didn’t listen to loud music. I took
my hearing for granted.
The
biggest difference was the immediate change of being able to
hear
background noise again. I could hear conversations that were going
on around me again. I can hear birds chirping outside, even commercial
trucks backing up. Now I feel a part of what is going on around
me.
And even my kids noticed the change immediately.
If
I could tell people only one thing it would be, not to let hearing
problems go on a long time; you miss so much!”

“They
are simply first class!”
“Before
I went to Island Hearing I looked into some of the other
hearing aid companies. Island Hearing had very competitive
prices on hearing aids and none could top their customer service.
With
my hearing consultant’s assistance, I changed to a digital product
and am very happy to be hearing so much more clearly. My wife really
notices a difference too!
Island Hearing is a company of the future when it comes to emphasizing
customer importance, and they do it properly and professionally.
They are simply first class.”

“I can hear an eagle’s call,
a running river and the wind in the trees again.”
“If
I was unable to hear, then my experiences in capturing these special
moments would be greatly diminished. Using the digital hearing
aids I now have has made a substantial improvement to my quality
of life.
Whether
outdoors, in crowded room or talking one on one I can adjust these
aids so that I can hear clearly. Thank you for your services in
customizing the hearing aids to my particular needs and your follow
up to ensure that they continue to perform as they should.”

“For
the last year and a half I have been apologizing to my wife for
not getting hearing aids sooner”
“No
longer does she have to keep repeating what she has just said.
I could always hear sounds in general moderately well, but my hearing
loss in the upper part of the sound spectrum made it difficult to
hear consonants clearly so that one either couldn’t make out what
was said, or misinterpreted the sound pattern with possibly disastrous
results.
I
am thoroughly satisfied with my present hearing aids, having given
up on the earlier model that I tried. They may be the monetary
equivalent to two IBM Pentium computers, but I think they are worth
every penny.
Again
and again I find that other people have tried hearing aids but
given
up on them because they are the difficult older models. The other
day, for example, we were at a luncheon in Victoria and Penny
was talking to three other wives, each of whom said that their
husbands more often than not, did not use their hearing aids because
the
results were so unsatisfactory. A wealthy Victoria friend of my
brother-in-law had given up going to gatherings of any sort because
of his hearing difficulty. John told him about my favorable experience
with Program 2 on my hearing aids which dampens down extraneous
sounds from the sides and back, & his friend thought that it
sounded like just what he needed – then he heard the price and
said,
“ I wouldn’t pay that much for a hearing aid; it would be ridiculous!”
Idiot! The automatic volume control alone would make my hearing
aids worth the price!
Thank
you again for helping my hearing so much.”
