Testimonial Review for Receiver in Canal (RIC) Hearing Aids-Ascent Audiology & Hearing,McLean,VA

Hi, I'm Debbie Kind. I'm very impressed with Dr. Anzola. She's been so helpful and so personable in helping me with hearing aids; which my kids have been telling me I need for a long time. The first thing I noticed after I got them, was not what I was hearing, as much as my new balance. I felt more balance. My head used to turn this way or this way, now it's straight. I can set the volumes myself, which is great because when I'm in a meeting with kids, students... I work in the high school... I can turn them up and hear what they're saying. This hit me one time when I was riding in my transport that takes me around, I'm much more aware of what I've been missing. Now that I feel more a part of the environment, instead of just being here with myself. I'm a part of everything else. And my surrounding spatially and audibly.

So it helps, you know I don't have good eyesight, so my ears and my eyes are working better together. And I use the volume controls for different situations. When I'm in the same situation, and it's subtly, I can turn it down if the noise is loud; but I can turn it up if I want to hear the speaker. And the reason I got them, is because my mother had hearing aids and they were a pain, big deal, all that. But a teacher that I had knew at my school showed me his. And I thought, whoa, that's good. And I can wear my glasses and I can store my glasses on my head, like I used to. And everything's the same, it's just amazing. So Dr. Anzola is very good. I highly, highly recommend her.
