Hubby first went to a hearing-aid store and found that they didn't seem to care about your hearing condition but more important was to sell you big bucks appliances.

He then went to an audiologist who was wonderful. They are truly doctors who put health above sales. The doctor questioned hubby if he had a military background; hub answered he did. Doc suggested he first attempt to be diagnosed by the military and may be able to get the appliances free.

Bill did sign up at the new VA Clinic near Mulberry. He was tested and GIVEN the appliances....no charge. I have much respect for the audiologist for their humane treatment.

Hubby is so very impressed with the VA Clinic and their efficiency. Most all of his medical treatments are with the VA Clinic now.
