I would start with a ENT doctor administering a hearing test. I have a moderate to severe hearing loss. Ususally ENT doctors are affiliated or will know a hearing aid center that will supply the hearing aids.

I have Starkeys that run $1000 per ear. It's a behind the ear type with a tube that has an ear bud that fits into the ear canal. There are digital and can be adjusted for any further hearing loss. I didn't get the $2400 per ear as I felt they were too expensive. They were only slightly better for certain situations but that's me. They are not cheap but the your quality of life will greatly improve when you hear easily.

I rather go a trusted dealer than deal with someone who doesn't stand by their product. They usually come with a one year warranty. Also, you have to consider if the parts/repair service will meet your needs.

I hope this helps.
