What our clients have to say
"My hearing loss made me feel embarrassed in social situations. I was hesitant to get hearing aids as I was worried what they would look like. After my appointment at Accent Hearing I was surprised at how small the aids were and they were hardly visible. I have been wearing my hearing aids for almost 5 years now and couldn't imagine my life without them. With the addition of a TV streamer I am now able to enjoy movies and TV programs that I had previously been missing out on, my quality of life has improved and I am very thankful. "
"After many years avoiding the inevitable, I decided to book myself in for a hearing test with Accent Hearing. After my full assessment, I was able to choose the best option of hearing aids which would give me the best results. Their professional knowledge was most helpful in making this big decision. If your hearing is impaired, do not wait any longer as hearing aids have changed my life."
After years of mixed information about hearing aids and fly by night providers, I chose Accent Hearing for my hearing assessment and was not disappointed. The tests were thorough and detailed. Within a couple of weeks I was so adapted to my new hearing aids that remembering to remove them was more of an issue than fitting them each day. My most pleasurable experience on the first morning with my new aids was hearing the birds chattering and calling, which I had not heard for years. I wish to thank Accent Hearing for their assistance in solving my hearing problems
l have been wearing hearing aids for around twenty three years. Accent Hearing tested my hearing as l was due for replacement hearing aids through Workcover for my Industrial deafness. Their attention to detail was very good, the explanations made sense, my understanding of the aids l would get made me feel excited that l would be hearing better in the near future. I was fitted with new hearing aids which was a life changing moment and l cannot believe that technology has advanced that far since my last fitting. As a 78 year old SES volunteer, I will be able to continue in this role due to the quality of these devices. l am now confident about my ability to follow most oral exchanges in most social situations
