Real Ear Measurement is an ideal tool to verify that a hearing aid is fit correctly. This piece of equipment right here is my best friend! It allows me to see behind the scenes!

Invisible-in-the-canal aids exist!
I placed the exact same order with two different manufacturers test which one would make the smallest hearing aid. We have a winner! Thanks @StarkeyHearing!

Yes, the @phonak Marvel Virto Black looks like a normal wireless earbud...but it is built as a true hearing aid. This isn’t just about amplification. A true hearing aid will only amplify the frequencies you need, letting you hear more CLEARLY, not just louder.
I love that the status quo is constantly being challenged at @Phonak.

Let my last minute cancellations be your “in” for better 🍁 Thanksgiving 🍁 conversations. I’ve got a couple of openings tomorrow (Wednesday) for me to test your hearing, let you try on the newest tech available and decide if you want to take it home with you. Call 704-540-3081 to get on my schedule 😊
**This offer is ideal for mild-severe hearing losses. Testing will determine if you are a candidate for this tech but it has a broad fitting range so the vast majority of losses will see immense benefit. More appropriate aids can be ordered if necessary.

Probably the number one complaint I hear is that people felt rushed at their last clinic. This is one way that we aim to be different than the rest.
We have helped more people hear in 2020 than any year before! The newsletter has all the deets... https://loom.ly/sR9Tv9w

As an FDA regulated medical device, hearing aids are potentially tax deductible, you can use your HSA or FSA and there is no sales tax on them in NC. #HearBetterFeelBetter
If you haven’t met Eileen yet, you need to!
A sweet gift from a very dear patient! This is a baby blanket for my son, Cameron. ❤️
🗣 One of the coolest new features of some hearing aids is language translation (50 languages!)
🏥 Fall detection sends a text message to loved ones with your GPS location.
🏃♀️ Step counting is even more accurate in the ear than on the wrist.
🧐 An invisible-in-the-canal hearing aid is like a tiny coffee bean that fits deep enough in your ear that it’s undetectable. We call it an IIC for short. It’s my favorite hearing aid to fit!
👉After taking an impression of your ear, the hearing aid is 3-D printed to your exact shape which makes it very comfortable for all day wear. It is the most “set it and forget it” model out there.
🚴♂️ have Doctors, EMTs, mountain bikers, public speakers and just your average joe who love that the aid is invisible and does not conflict with glasses or masks 😷

My mother ran her practice in Georgia for more than 30 years and just recently retired 👏 🏆
I was lucky to learn from the best! ❤️
New year, new news...
Masks muffle clarity. Yah, yah, that's obvious, but what can you do about it? Read the newsletter for communication tips. https://loom.ly/EuSrgWA

Ever heard of a BiCROS? This is one of my favorite devices! Wearing a BiCROS with one-sided deafness means that you can lean your "bad" ear toward that whisper and actually hear it.

We are lucky to welcome Eileen Clark to the Levine Hearing team!
Her background in a busy ENT clinic has given her great insight into the wide range of communication needs of her patients. Say "hey" to Eileen the next chance you get!
📱 Bluetooth is definitely not necessary. Your hearing can absolutely be improved without getting into the techy stuff, BUT for some people these are awesome perks of wearing a little speaker on their ear all day. 💃🏼
First shot! We are doing our part to protect our patients and ourselves. #Covid19Vaccine #ThisIsMyShot #CLThealth

“From the first phone call to the background questionnaire this practice pays attention to the details and the the customer! My appointment was COVID safe and the 75 minute examination was free. I went for the purpose of getting hearing aids but they really paid attention to my concerns and my needs for the aids. In the end I got the “invisible” aids (and yes they are virtually impossible to see) and I was fitted right then for the custom aids. I’ll add pictures later this week when I get them. Best customer service I have ever received at an audiologist (and possibly anywhere). Ask me anything- I highly recommend them.” -Patrick Hughes

Y’all. What fun! We had the privilege of hanging with @raging_rooster_motorsports and fitting @Lorin_ranier with the newest @starkeyhearing Livio Edge AI hearing aids.
📱 Bluetooth streaming
💡 Lithium ion battery
🔪 Edge mode
🗺 GPS tracking
🗣 Language Translation
🏃 Step tracking
Y’all, does this look like a hearing aid to you? Now don’t be fooled by other Bluetooth buds on the market. They are streaming devices first and foremost, while the Livio Edge AI is a hearing aid first with bonus features like those that I listed above.
Why black, you ask? Well, they look very cool and techy but of course these can also be made in a more discreet skin tone. I have fit so many of these this year since masks have created some conflict with behind-the-ear aids.

There is nothing like fitting a COUPLE with hearing aids on the same day. Nothing. 💫
It’s a special experience regardless but going through it with your best friend, hearing all the new sounds together, asking each other what they’re noticing and how they are adjusting... it’s just.. special.
They each appreciated different perks of their new ears. Irv can now rock out to the Beach Boys right through his hearing aids while we get Sherry set up to stream phone calls with her daughter through her own pair of aids! We’re so happy for you two!
Have I mentioned lately how thankful I am for our team?
Maggie, Eileen and Ana are rockstars, not just in their given roles but with the positive energy that they each bring every single day. You can’t help but feel the love when you walk in the office. They are one of the reasons that I LOVE coming to work every day. Thank you for all that you guys do. We are a great TEAM!
What can YOU do for someone with hearing loss?
1. Be kind
2. Be patient
3. Slow down
4. Don’t yell
5. Enunciate
6. Turn off the TV
7. Reduce background noise
8. Face the person
9. Don’t cover your mouth
10. Don’t ask, “Are you even wearing your hearing aids?”
Yes, this is a hearing aid but it is also SO. MUCH. MORE.
If you get me talking about the health benefits of a device like this, it's hard to shut me up. Take a walk with me and watch my video below...

This is how my hearing aids are set today (Madison here!). I’ve got my tinnitus masker on and it is SO relaxing 😎
My tinnitus is a high pitched buzz that really comes up when my world gets quiet. I’ve found that a low, rumbly, deep ocean sound is my absolute favorite way to totally cancel it out and to relax. It’s subtle and doesn’t interfere with my work day and conversations with my team or patients.
