Why can't you show me hearing aid prices now?

We know that price is a big consideration when making a purchase decision. However, prices vary greatly depending on your specific, unique requirements, so it would be unethical and misleading for us to recommend a device to our patients before we have evaluated their hearing and completed our comprehensive suite of tests. Your hearing aid audiologist will discuss the types of hearing aids suitable to your individual hearing profile at the end of your consultation. We also offer 0% finance and a 90-day money back guarantee for your peace of mind. Reserve your free hearing test appointment .
