Hearing Aid Repair

Hearing aids have small working parts, and it is not uncommon over time for a hearing aid to need a repair, especially when you consider that the hearing aids are exposed to moisture, perspiration, debris, earwax, dead skin, dust, and other debris daily. You may try to turn the hearing aid on in the morning and find that there is little or no sound; the battery door may come unhinged; or another problem may occur. These things do happen, even when the hearing aids are properly cared for. If you should experience an issue that needs repair, take the hearing aid(s) to your audiologist. They are equipped to diagnose broken hearing aids. Some minor hearing aid repairs can be done in the office in a short period of time; others will need to be sent to the manufacturer for repair. Your audiologist can help determine what kind of a repair is necessary if you feel your hearing aid is not working properly.

If you are a current patient and have hearing aids that were not fit in our office, we are happy to try to repair your hearing aids. We are able to service most major manufacturers of hearing aids and can tell you in the office if yours is a brand we service. Hearing aids come with a warranty when purchased new. If your warranty has expired, it is still possible to repair most hearing aids with a fee. Depending on the hearing aid manufacturer, this repair may come with a new 6-month or year-long warranty. Your hearing professional will provide you with details when you take your hearing aid into the office.
