A Santa Clarita audiologist is educating community members on what an audiologist does in honor of Audiology Awareness Month, and talking about the reasons to choose a private practice audiology office when it comes to hearing loss solutions.
Audiologists receive university training for at least four to six years, and must also now have a doctorate degree from a four-year doctoral program, noted Advanced Audiology’s Nola Aronson.
The first “true” AI, or artificial intelligence, hearing aid is now available at a Santa Clarita audiologist’s office, Nola Aronson’s Advanced Audiology, after the product was released last month.
“It’s so amazing,” Aronson said. “It not only tracks your steps, your heart rate — you will not have to use a Fitbit anymore — it measures your brain activity so you see how you’re doing in your listening environments and how your brain is functioning.”
Advanced Audiology officials have sponsored a total of four Santa Clarita community events in a 30-day timespan over the summer, including an awards gala and three fundraisers.
“Advanced Audiology has taken on a role to be more involved in our community,” said Nola Aronson of Advanced Audiology in a previous KHTS interview. “Our community is very philanthropic … and we love helping other people.”
Nola Aronson of Advanced Audiology is getting ready to hold a special open house event at her Valencia office next week, the Santa Clarita audiologist announced Friday.
Nola Aronson from Advanced Audiology is discussing several reasons why people don’t get hearing aids, and the Santa Clarita audiologist is educating the public on why these beliefs are actually myths.
Nola Aronson from Advanced Audiology is addressing a common belief that hearing loss has to do entirely with volume, clarifying that clarity of sound is a large component too.
“One of the things that I’ve been finding lately that people don’t understand is that when they think of a hearing loss, they think of deafness,” said Aronson, adding that hearing loss can often be an inability to clearly hear certain letters in the alphabet.
Advanced Audiology officials announced they will be sponsoring two Santa Clarita nonprofit fundraisers coming up, including Dancing With Our Stars and Circle of Hope Vine 2 Wine.
Nola Aronson of Advanced Audiology is an 18-year breast cancer survivor and a member of the board of directors for Circle of Hope, and so decided to take her support of the organization’s mission to help cancer patients a step further by being title sponsor for the annual Vine 2 Wine event.

“It’s a very good event — all the proceeds go to helping people with cancer,” Aronson said. “We have a new center called Hope’s Haven, which is a support group and you get to exercise, you get to have your makeup done, massages, all kinds of great things.”
Vine 2 Wine is expected to have wine and food, music by Lance Allyn, a live auction featuring Assemblyman Dante Acosta as auctioneer, a silent auction and more, Aronson added. The event is scheduled for Saturday at CalArts in Valencia.
In addition, Aronson is sponsoring Dancing With Our Stars 2018 on Aug. 24 at COC’s Santa Clarita Performing Arts Center.
The event benefits more than a dozen Santa Clarita nonprofits, each represented by a local “celebrity” dancer who will partner with the organization to raise funds via proxy votes, the PAC website states.
“The reason I’m sponsoring that is because that includes about 15 … nonprofits all at once,” Aronson said. “So that’s a good way to (support) all the nonprofits, is coming to Dancing With Our Stars.”
Further, Advanced Audiology also donates 10 percent of hearing aid sale proceeds to a number of nonprofits in Santa Clarita.
“When you are thinking of where to entrust your hearing needs, wouldn’t you feel better going to a place that gives back and supports their community?” Aronson said.
Not only that, Aronson has set a goal of giving 2,018 free hearing screenings in Santa Clarita in 2018, and has already reached about 1,650 screenings thus far.
“For anybody that wants one, all you have to do is call our office,” Aronson said. “Also what we do there is not only give you a free hearing screening, but educate you about hearing, so that’s what’s really important to us is the education portion.”
There are a number of reasons to pick a private practice audiology center such as Advanced Audiology for your next hearing device, according to Santa Clarita audiologist Nola Aronson.
Established in the Santa Clarita Valley 30 years ago, Aronson and her team at Advanced Audiology are actively involved in the community, offering support to local nonprofits through event sponsorship and even donating a portion of hearing aid sale proceeds.
Advanced Audiology’s Nola Aronson is debunking several common myths people believe about hearing aids and use as excuses to leave their hearing loss uncorrected.
The first myth the Santa Clarita audiologist is talking about is that nobody notices a hearing loss until the person gets a hearing aid.
Nola Aronson and her team at Advanced Audiology have nearly reached the halfway point of their goal to give 2,018 free hearing screenings in 2018, having provided over 940 so far.
“What we do for the community is we give free hearing screenings so that people can be aware and educated about their hearing, because it’s so important for communication,” Aronson said.
