Call in for a new hearing experience
Mention 'hearing aid' and many people still picture a box and cord, or large object hanging behind the ear which buzzes and whistles.
New technology and audiological research means improved all round hearing with aids so small, they're practically invisible.
It's not easy to decide where to seek advice about private hearing aids. Andrew Friel, of Burnley's Hammerton Street Hearing Centre says
'think local established, professional'. Which is exactly what the centre offers.
As a member of the Association of Independent Hearing Healthcare Professionals (AIHHP), the Hearing Centre promotes and maintains the very highest professional and ethical standards in the Private Sector. The Burnley Centre is equipped with state of the art Audio testing facilities, and includes a soundproof booth to guarantee TOO percent hearing test accuracy.
"Hearing tests are straight forward, interesting and can be shared by family and friends" says Andrew. This doesn't lead to buying the most expensive aid. In fact, the reverse may apply.
