About this episode

The episode discusses the impact of hearing loss on relationships and the importance of audiologists in managing hearing health.

Host: Ray Loewe Co-host: Mary Ann Steinhauer Guests: Dr. Heather Eck andDr. Kerry Hermann, IntegrityForward Hearing Solutions -------- Hearing loss can slowly and sneakily impede your relationships. You don't know you're not hearing what you're not hearing. When your ears aren't functioning properly, you're not getting information to the brain. It's the brain that actually interprets those hearing impulses and turns them into action. New hearing aid and hearing testing technologies have made and continue to make giant strides in hearing improvement. You need to put a good audiologist on your medical team. Not just one who will sell you new hearing aids.
