Hearing aids fit the way they should be fit.
Modern hearing aids are smaller, smarter, and more natural-sounding than ever — but the device matters less than how it's fit. We use Real-Ear Measurement to verify yours work to your prescription.
What style is right for you?
Your audiologist will help match a style to your hearing loss, anatomy, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences.
Receiver-in-the-Canal
The most common style worldwide. The speaker sits inside the ear canal for natural sound, while electronics rest behind the ear. Small, discreet, versatile — and powerful enough for significant loss.
Behind-the-Ear
Curved housing rests behind the ear and connects to the canal via a custom earmold. More visible, but powerful enough for severe-to-profound losses.
Completely-in-the-Canal
Sits deep in the ear canal — virtually invisible. Trades a smaller battery for discretion and is best for milder losses.
In-the-Canal
Larger than CIC and sits in the lower portion of the canal — easier to insert with a longer battery life. Now available rechargeable.
In-the-Ear
Fills the outer portion of the ear. Less discreet, but room for more features and a bigger battery — supporting more severe losses.
Over 70% of hearing aids aren't programmed correctly.
Most people don't know that the hearing aid's manufacturer settings are an estimate — they assume the size and shape of an "average" ear canal. Your ear isn't average.
At Elevate, every fitting includes Real-Ear Measurement: a tiny probe-tube microphone in your canal that confirms your hearing aid is delivering exactly the volume and clarity your hearing loss prescription requires. It's the gold standard — and most clinics still skip it.
- Verified to your actual ear, not an average
- Validated to your hearing loss prescription
- Measured in both quiet and noise
- Adjusted in your real-life environment
Our ElevatedFit™ process is designed to help you get the best possible performance, comfort, and clarity from your hearing aid technology from day one. Instead of simply programming hearing aids to a generic setting based on a basic hearing exam, we use advanced verification measures and personalized counseling to ensure your devices are accurately fit to your unique hearing needs and lifestyle.
This process includes
- Comprehensive ear examination (otoscopy)
- Real Ear Unaided Response (REUR) measurements
- Real Ear Measurements (REM) to build the prescription to your test results and your ears’ anatomy at the same time
- Personalized education and counseling
- Follow-up care and fine-tuning support
The result? Better speech clarity, improved comfort, less listening fatigue, and greater confidence in real-world situations.
Not hearing as well as you hoped with your current hearing aids? Elevate180™ Refit is our comprehensive “second opinion” process designed for patients who want to know if their hearing technology and programming are truly optimized.
We take a fresh, evidence-based look at your hearing, your devices, and your communication challenges to identify opportunities for improvement.
This process may include
- Advanced diagnostic and “second opinion” testing
- Functional Hearing Assessment (FHA)
- Thorough hearing aid cleaning
- Electroacoustic Analysis (EAA) of your current devices (quality control — are the hearing aids healthy? No distortion, weakness, or broken parts?)
- Updated Real Ear Measurements (REM)
- Recommendations for earmolds, additional programming adjustments, accessories, or technology changes as needed
Many patients discover their hearing aids were never properly verified or adjusted for their specific needs. Our goal is to help you improve clarity, reduce frustration, and feel more confident in everyday conversations before assuming you need brand-new devices.
