with the struggle of trying to understand conversations.
It is a good idea to discuss these things with your family
and see if they are also noticing any changes. There are
many ways to help you feel included again. Feelings of
isolation don’t have to accompany the changing of the
“seasons” of your life.
The good news is that not all changes are negative.
Often, change comes in the form of a blessing. Just as
new glasses help you see better, hearing aids can be a
blessing that restores your quality of life. We would like
to be a part of helping you enjoy that kind of positive
change.
Perhaps you promised your family that “before the
next holiday, I will get my hearing checked.” Are you
wishing you had already done something so that you
could enjoy the sounds of the holidays? Is it time to
make good on that promise?

Why not call today and schedule a test? It doesn’t take
much time, and we are conveniently located, in both
Plainview and Lubbock. Our screenings are FREE,
and we will go over with you the true picture of your
hearing health in a way that you can understand.

“A hearing evaluation is the best gift you can give to those
you love this holiday season.”
