buyer beware hearing aidsBUYER BEWARE:

Your Hearing Center Audiologists have a strong position relative to buying hearing aids online.

1. Buyer beware. There is no governmental regulation or oversight over what you buy.

2. Buying over the internet bypasses both medical and audiological assessment and services.

3. Buying online assumes that you are able to select what is best for you.

4. Buying online assumes that you will be able to find a competent professional who will program and care for your purchase.

5. Assuming that you select a hearing aid system that is appropriate for your hearing loss in the first place, you will spend more in professional fees and services than you saved buying it on-line.

6. &.and finally, Buyer Beware. Don't give up if you have a bad experience or waste your money. There IS a better way, and it can be found in this office.
