Looking for Audiologists?

If you or your family member has been referred for a hearing assessment, and the place referred is not of your preference, check out Malaysian Association of Speech-Language & Hearing (MASH) directory for Audiologists (click on the right panel of this page under Audiology). Of course if you do check, there will be a list of Speech-Language Pathologists as well.

Listed on the directory are only members of MASH. For other Audiologists & SLPs beside the ones listed, you can check government hospitals and hearing aid centres.

Hearing Aids Promotion

Considering to get hearing aids for your elderly parents? Or hey, maybe even for yourself?

Oticon (Malaysia), a brand of hearing aids from Denmark is having a promotion on their Vigo Connect and Vigo Pro Connect series. It's a high end hearing aid, and they're offering discount with any purchase of that series. Obviously, terms and conditions apply.

As a neutral Audiologist, I am not trying to be biased by promoting this particular brand. But as a consumer, I would love to know these kind of information that I think is value for money. Of course, before you get the hearing aids, you need to actually do a full hearing assessment and go through a trial with the hearing aids. It may or may not suit you, so don't just go and buy off the rack. Give the hearing aid a listen and decide, whether it's satisfactory or not. Feedback to the Audiologist attending you so that he/she can try to adjust to your preference. Then you buy. Mind you, hearing aid is not cheap!

More information about Oticon hearing aids can be found on their international webpage. Click here.

ps: Promotion ends 30th November 2010.
