Advanced Instruments Hearing Aid Center Comparative Summary

Advanced Instruments Hearing Aid Centers utilizes the gold standard of fitting procedures to ensure the best possible results. Known as Live Speech Mapping, this verification system makes certain that the hearing aids are properly adjusted and calibrated for each individual patient. This unique process uses a tiny microphone placed deep in the ear canal, combined with a pinpoint computer system, to customize the hearing aids to the individual acoustics of each patient's ears.

While most company's initial consultations usually run 30-45 minutes, Advanced Instrument sets aside a full two hours if necessary, making sure they get a full picture of each patient's needs. After the fitting, Advanced Instruments offers counseling services during the hearing aid adjustment phase.

Since not all patients are able to travel to their offices, Advanced Hearing Aid is able to schedule home visits and provide service at a patient's residence. An extremely customer-oriented company, Advanced Hearing Aid's trained and friendly office staff will even provide fully insured transportation to their center, if necessary.

Resolving hearing issues can be a sensitive and emotional experience, especially for first-time hearing aid users. Advanced Instruments works to create a comfortable, professional, and relaxed environment in which to experience the testing, recommendation and fitting process.

• Offers a three-year warranty on all new hearing aids
Why this is important:
-Hearing aids need periodic office cleaning and adjustments (a patients’ hearing and needs can change over time and the hearing aids can be adjusted to the changing needs of the patient).
-Hearing aids may require repair. If a hearing aid is not right for a patient, or doesn't work properly, a solution or replacement will be offered within the limits of their warranty.

• Offers a 75-day no-risk evaluation period.
Why this is important:
-California State law requires a 30-day “trial” period for hearing aid fittings. Advanced Instruments exceeds this by providing a generous 75-day no-risk evaluation period. This allows the patient plenty of time to ensure they are getting the benefits of improved hearing and communication that motivated them to come in.
