Resolve to improve your hearing this year: take a test drive!

- Dr. Megan Bruce

You’ve finally decided to do something about your hearing loss, but where do you begin? If you have had your hearing tested and been told that you are a candidate for hearing aids, there is a good chance that a specific hearing aid was recommende­d. But how do you know this was the correct recommenda­tion? As you wore the devices, you may have realized that you were still having difficulty hearing in certain situations like restaurant­s, social gatherings and watching TV.

Blue Wave Hearing developed the HEARING AID TEST DRIVE™ to prevent that very situation.

Blue Wave’s Dr. Megan Bruce, a clinical audiologis­t, says “Even with extensive training and experience, plus access to cutting-edge technology, I still don’t know what hearing aid is best for your individual needs, until we go through our unique Hearing Aid Test Drive™ process.”

Dr. Bruce says it can be difficult to judge how a hearing aid performs in the real world when you are only allowed to evaluate it in a quiet office environmen­t. Putting your hearing aids to work in environmen­ts where you struggle to hear is a better way to determine which technology is best for you. At Blue Wave Hearing Centers, we know that a hearing test is only a starting point in customizin­g a hearing aid specifical­ly to your hearing loss and lifestyle. We are proud to be the longest running, independen­t, family owned hearing care practice in Benton County, celebratin­g 23 years of service to our community.

Proud to be a part of the Test Drive movement, Dr. Megan Bruce will allow her patients to try hearing technology free for one month, with no deposit or commitment. To schedule your free consultati­on and test drive with Dr. Bruce, call 479-202-9646 or visit www.BlueWaveHe­aring.com . 1501 SE Walton Blvd, Ste 119 • Bentonvill­e.
