There are a lot of hearing aid manufactures making hearing aids globally. But the biggest are only Six. They are Signia ( Siemens), Phonak, Oticon, ReSound, Widex and Starkey. GHAC carries all six.


We also provide high quality customized ear mold for hearing aid; Hearing Protection mold; Swim Protection mold and other Occupational earpieces; We carry high quality US brand hearing aid batteries, too.


You might be losing your ability to hear high frequency sounds. High tech hearing aids can pick up those frequency sounds and amplify them quite well without changing the sounds you already hear.


This is not good decision. Here are the two reasons; One, if you wear only one hearing aid, you will get unbalanced sound stimulus and it is hard to locate sound source, always put your "good ear" to the speaker and the ear without hearing aid will get worse faster; The other, our ears not only control our hearing but also control our body balance.


Yes, you can. But you'd better take some advice from professionals. Because the hearing aid style chosen is depending on your hearing loss.


Yes. it is true. But the money you spend on is only for hearing aids, not for service. 

Now you can have OTC hearing aid. But those aids are only for those whose hearing loss is mild to moderate.


The answer is yes. If your both ears have hearing loss to a certain level, Medi-Cal does cover bilateral hearing aids.


Please use Apple Map.


Yes, of course. You can use OTC hearing aids if you feel that they could help. But OTC hearing aids are only for the people who have mild to moderate hearing loss. Those who have moderate to profound hearing loss have to see hearing professionals for help. Even the people who have mild to moderate loss had better consult the hearing professionals first before trying OTC.
