Letters from our patients

 

Dear Pittsburgh Audiology,

  About two years ago during a routine medical examination I was told that I had a hearing problem and should consider purchasing hearing aids. 

 Subsequently, I visited several audiologists but somehow did not feel comfortable in dealing with any of them. Then I visited Dr. Gregory. 

 On my first visit there it was clear that Dr. Gregory was interested in helping me hear and was not trying to sell me something. I took her recommendation and have been very pleased with the results.

 If you have any concerns about going to an audiologist, I recommend you try Pittsburgh Audiology without fear!

   It wasn't until I accepted a network analyst position that I even considered that I may have a hearing loss. You see, I was in denial about my hearing loss. My coworkers would make fun of me because I could not always hear them or our customers on the phone. It seemed to be the consonants that I had the most trouble with. I would confirm the customer's printed name by saying: "is that a D as in DOG or a V as in VICTOR?" Finally, after my coworkers made a hearing horn for me out of paper and called it "Patty's Hearing Horn" I decided to schedule a hearing test; I did have a moderate high frequency hearing loss.

So my next step was to investigate hearing aids. My first attempt was at a department store. I was not impressed. The audiologist was an elderly man in a small office with a setup that looked like it came out of a suitcase. And what he showed me I just could not imagine putting in my ears. After all, I was 43 at the time (now 45) and thought of hearing aids as something you have when you are OLD. But, I persisted.

Then I heard about Pittsburgh Audiology and made an appointment. I was very impressed! Anyone I talk to now about a hearing loss, I always recommend Pittsburgh Audiology to them. They have a very clean and professional office and are all very friendly. They have several offices throughout the Pittsburgh region, so that makes them convenient. Dr. Gregory, my audiologist, is very knowledgeable about hearing loss and the latest technology. She explained everything, from the hearing loss itself, my particular needs, and what she recommended. I choose the behind the ear (BTE) version and have been very happy with them. You can't even see them with my hairstyle! I return to the office about every six months and Dr. Gregory cleans my hearing aids, changes the tubing when necessary, and provides me with more batteries. The only thing I've ever paid for at those visits is the tubing! 

This is really painless and if you suspect you have a hearing loss don't put it off or remain in denial. Go to Pittsburgh Audiology! They'll take good care of you!

   I am 81 years old and have had difficulty hearing for approximately two years. In group settings, it was very difficult to have a conversation with someone. I also noticed when I couldn't see the person talking and watch their lips, it was impossible to be part of the conversation. For the longest time, I tried to ignore it. Even when my family kept telling me I should look into getting hearing aids, it just wasn't something I was open to.

One day, we received an advertisement from your company. My husband called to schedule the appointment. I was somewhat skeptical, but my youngest daughter had twin boys who were beginning to talk and I just didn't want to miss out on that experience.

My appointment was with Dr. Laura Gregory. She was great. After conducting a test for hearing on each ear and discussing my concerns, like hearing aids that would require a great deal of maintenance or a lot of gadgets that I would have to keep adjusting, she suggested the hearing aids that she felt would best suit my needs.

It's been 9 months since I've been using the hearing aids. Dr. Gregory was right. These hearing aids are perfect for me. Clear in color and not noticeable at all. I've had friends ask me when I was going to get my hearing aids. I told them "I have them in!" They couldn't even tell! 

Now I hear everything. In group settings I push a button and it drowns out all the background noise. My husband and I enjoy ballroom dancing. When we're not dancing, I can join in the conversation with the other couples in our group. It made such a difference in my life.

My grandsons are almost two. I enjoy reading to them and listening to them trying to repeat words I say. I can't explain to you what a wonderful feeling that is.

I would highly recommend you. This has highly changed my life!

Sincerely,

Thank you one and all.
