"Dr. Finch is empathetic and really listened.  She takes her time to explain all the options and figure out what was right for me.  I'm hearing better than I have in years and am grateful for her help.  Definitely recommend!"


"They are great.  She takes all the time you need with her and explains everything.  Always feel comfortable going there.  I would recommend her to anyone looking for a hearing aid"

"I came here to get my ears checked after having issues hearing;  particularly in my left ear.  The secretary was super sweet and took my info and I didn't wait long before seeing the doctor.   She took her time with me and did a very in-depth hearing test and was very kind about delivering the news about my less than optimal hearing.  She provided me with resources of places to go for further testing to rule out certain causes and just was overall very sweet and relatable"

"I would absolutely recommend her to people (of all ages) to get checked out; especially if you believe you could need a hearing aid"

"My dad had been to an audiology office in [...] - he used to come out saying they wanted him to put a significant amt of money into new hearing aids.  At Blackstone Valley Hearing Center - my 91 year old dad was treated with respect and he was only fitted for one hearing aid - his other ear has no hearing at all - this practice does not prey on the elderly - or sell something that is not needed - thank you for respecting my dad... and he loves his new hearing aid.  Thank you"

Do you do well with your hearing aids except for television? Except for using your cell phone? Except for hearing in a restaurant? Did you know that there are accessories that work with many hearing aids? These accessories can connect to your television, pair to your cell phone, or pair to a mini microphone that your family member of friend can wear. They can connect directly to your hearing aids and significantly improve your hearing in these situations.

Many hearing aids manufactured in the past 5 years have a built-in antennae that connects to accessories. While the specific signal that each manufacturer uses can vary, most of the major manufacturers have options for almost every need. Some require a body-worn relay, called a streamer, that hangs around your neck. Others are able to work directly with the hearing aids.

Alternatively, some hearing aids have a telecoil. A telecoil is another way to use a landline telephone. Many hearing aids have a built-in coil. Some venues, such as PPAC, have assistive listening devices that you can borrow. The devices can connect to your telecoil for better hearing in these situations.

Many hearing aid manufacturers are now offering a rechargeable hearing aid option for those who have limited dexterity or visual problems that make it difficult to change the batteries. Some of us prefer the convenience of plugging in our hearing aids alongside our cell phone or tablet at night. 


Whether it is for ease of use or convenience, the number of manufacturers offering a rechargeable product is growing. Currently, all of the options are either a behind-the-ear (BTE) or receiver-in-the-canal (RIC, pictured above). Custom in-the-ear (ITE) products will be available in the near future as well.
