You never pay anything to see us for our service.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When thinking about the cost of hearing aids, Aronson believes that investing in your own quality of life and health is worth it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRealize that hearing aids are not a commodity &#8212; they are a medical device,\u201d she said. \u201cIf it\u2019s done properly, it comes with a lot of extra bells and whistles and counseling and service that hearing aids happen to need\u2026 I\u2019m not out there trying to \u2018sell\u2019 you a hearing aid. I\u2019m out there giving you a solution for your hearing loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>#4 &#8211; Your quality of life won\u2019t change if you get a hearing aid.<\/h3>\n<p>Aronson firmly believes that hearing aids can drastically improve quality of life, and that choosing not to correct a hearing loss can negatively impact your quality of life in a variety of ways.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou start making excuses why you can\u2019t do certain things or you don\u2019t want to go somewhere because you know you\u2019re missing out on things,\u201d she said. \u201cThe other thing is, you start to have fights with peoples because you\u2019re not hearing them and then you misunderstand and you take it wrong\u2026 So then you don\u2019t even have a good relationship life with your family and the people that you love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not correcting a hearing loss also has potential effects on your health, Aronson added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe studies have shown, No. 1, you\u2019re bringing on a cognitive problem faster,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you\u2019re going to get dementia or Alzheimer\u2019s, it could make it come on faster because your brain in missing the information.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition, recent studies have linked heart problems with untreated hearing loss, according to Aronson.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany medical problems are related to hearing loss,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<h3>The bottom line?<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThose are the kinds of things after 40 years of being this profession that I see,\u201d Aronson said of the listed reasons people avoid getting hearing aids, despite them being largely untrue.<\/p>\n<p>She continued, \u201cIt is so frustrating to me as an audiologist, because the reason I\u2019m an audiologist is because I love helping people&#8230; And when somebody says to me, \u2018I don\u2019t have a hearing loss,\u2019 and I just tested them (and they do), in a way, that cuts me off from helping people. So it affects me just as much as the person with the hearing loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hometownstation.com\/tag\/advanced-audiology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i>Advanced Audiology<\/i><\/a><i>\u00a0was founded in 2010 by Santa Clarita audiologist Nola Aronson, who has been fitting hearing aids for more than 30 years.
