Hearing Aid Fittings
The Importance of Professional Hearing Aid Fittings
Professional hearing aid fittings are essential for maximizing the benefits of your hearing devices. A properly fitted hearing aid not only improves your hearing but also enhances your overall quality of life. Our experienced team takes the time to adjust your hearing aids to your specific hearing loss profile, ensuring you receive the most benefit from your devices.
We work with the leading manufacturers, including Oticon, ReSound, Starkey, and Phonak. Their advanced devices offer exceptional sound quality and innovative features, but they require expert programming and fitting to reach their full potential.

Real Ear Measurements for Precision Fitting
At Family Audiology and Hearing Centers, we utilize Real Ear Measurements (REM) as part of our fitting process. This advanced technique allows us to measure the exact sound levels reaching your eardrum while wearing your hearing aids. By using REM, we can make precise adjustments to ensure your hearing aids are providing the right amount of amplification across all frequencies, tailored specifically to your hearing loss.
