from the University of Western Ontario, a Graduate Degree in Audiology, and

hearing aid that is not producing everything you expected, let Judy Keith’s
knowledge, expertise and caring assist you in appreciating life the way it is meant
to be.
If you have a hearing loss, Judy Keith is interested in your success with a hearing
aid. She emphasizes that the professional relationship with your hearing aid
provider is vitally important in determining long-term success and benefit.
“At Chemong Audiology, we have an open-door policy. If there is a problem or
issue between scheduled visits, we encourage you to let us know so we can
solve it”. The hearing solutions offered today are proven forms of treatment for
loss of hearing.
The first step involved is to arrange for a professional hearing assessment. If a
hearing aid is required, one is fitted to comfort, worn discretely and designed
for your ability to wear it all day. What you should notice is better hearing,
more confidence and comfort in conversation, and much less stress! Other than
being able to hear once again, you are not likely to even notice that the hearing
aid is there. Technology has come so far in such a short time. Perhaps you have
said, “I have tried a hearing aid but it didn’t work. It was uncomfortable.” Or,
“I had a problem with my aid but I didn’t call. I’m sure it’s something I’m doing
wrong and I don’t want to bother them.”
How readily we seem willing to accept our poor quality of hearing. So often we
hear both young and old, men and women state, “I can’t
hear out of my left ear,” or, “my right ear is practically
deaf” as if it is a courageous merit badge of life. Poor
hearing affects how we feel about ourselves, poor hearing
has a direct bearing on social life, how one participates
in conversations among groups and family, even on
memory as a result of not hearing clearly and understanding
what’s been said. The saddest part of suffering the
consequences of hearing loss is that, in most cases, it is
totally not necessary. So often it comes down to making
the decision to do something about it!
