Did you try Sam's? Large chain like Miracle Ear? Start with a doctor or with local store? Did you try multiple vendors before picking one?
I have a moderate to severe loss on one side (it's been there since late infancy) that I have managed all these years. Tried hearing aids in the early 80s and didn't like them. Willing to try again with all the improvements in technology. Might also have some insurance help from BC/BS (anybody had BC help pay the cost?)
Any advice or local experiences is appreciated.

ive worn various types over the years and i finally found some that are far and away superior to any i have seen. they are made by siemens. they are bluetooth so you can hear your television,cell phone etc thru them. they aso come with a little remote that you can use to block out peripheral noise when in a resturant or party atmosphere. i bought them at lake regional hearing center next door to att by lowes.
