Hearing Health Journeys

Randall says it wasn’t one specific moment that alerted him to his hearing loss but rather a few clues gradually over time, such as, “Not hearing your spouse in the next room. Turning up the volume on the TV, not knowing it was too loud for others in the room or the house. Hard to talk with someone in a noisy place like a restaurant. Not realizing how loud I was talking and embarrassing to be told to talk quieter.”

Although he says he had his hearing tested a few times previously, he still was “a little nervous” prior to making an appointment with Denton Hearing Health Care. Fortunately, the team was able to make Randall feel at home. He says he also “appreciated my wife coming with me and her support.”
Some of the highlights he remembers from his first visit were, “The lobby with soft music. Sitting in the insulated sound room, concentrating to hear the test tones. Sitting in a comfortable doctor’s office.”

Randall now loves his hearing aids – not just because he can hear better, but he also finds the modern technology very convenient. He says, “For me when using the Android mobile phone, with the hearing aid setting on, being able to set the phone down and not have to hold it against my ear. Truly wonderful.”

Dennae began wearing hearing aids when she was three years old. She doesn’t remember much from the early years, but as the years went by, her hearing loss has made parts of daily life challenging in many different ways.

She says, “There have been changes over the course of 50 years of wearing hearing aids. Challenges come with understanding others in restaurants, not hearing my name called when someone behind me needs me, and comprehending unfamiliar voices on the phone. I do get tired, sometimes frustrated with listening.”

Prior to her first appointment at Denton Hearing Health Care, one particular concern weighed on her mind. “I hoped most of all that my love for music and my need to hear it would be valued,” she recalls.

Sharon’s hearing had declined so much that she found herself withdrawing from the world around her.

However, prior to switching her hearing care to Denton Hearing Health Care, she did have one concern. “I did have some fear of the people who work there may not have the same views as I do,” she says, referring to her treatment options.

“Once I voiced them, the people at Denton Hearing addressed all my needs and treated me with respect. When I first got there, they were telling me about some implants. Once I told them that’s not the route that I wanted to take, they dropped it and addressed my needs with aids that are suited for my type of loss. Also, I enjoy the fact that they know sign language,” says Beth.

David was unaware of his hearing loss, and the truth finally came to light “when my girlfriend asked me if I was having a hard time understanding her.”

Not hesitating to seek help, David made an appointment with Denton Hearing Health Care, despite feeling “worried about how they [hearing aids] may feel in my ears” should he need them.

According to David, the team was “friendly, caring, and they showed me several options each.” He explains, “Each option was explained in detail. I was told the cost of each option and I chose the one I felt was best for me. No pressure to buy most expensive – buy what you think is best for you.”

David gives Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10 rating and advises others, “Do it. You’ll be surprised at what you have been missing. This office has great staff and doctors.”

Hearing loss can develop gradually over the years, making it hard to detect. Bill experienced this firsthand.

“My hearing loss has been over a long period of time,” he says. “My wife is actually the one that noticed my level of hearing had changed. My occupation was such that working in a loud environment masks the slow loss of ability to distinctly hear. When I changed my vocation to teaching in a classroom was the first noticeable moment.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, Bill had a few concerns on his mind. “My concerns hinged around noticeable feedback and an inability to separate the listening levels in different environments,” he says.

His initial appointment went very well, and Bill liked what he found at Denton Hearing. “My first impressions were ‘top notch organization.’ I guess it helped that the office is on top of a hill,” he says.

“Having the ability to distinctly hear with aids reminds me of the time as an 8-year-old boy when I put glasses on and was able to see with such precision that astonishment set in being able to ‘see’ all that I had been missing.

“The noises that were muffled and overlooked before my ‘aids’ brought a youthful exuberance to my awareness,” says Bill.

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, he adds, “My recommendation to anyone considering both ‘aids’ and Denton Hearing Health Care is to allow technology to enhance your day to day and have faith that ‘DHHC’ will take care of whatever your needs be.”

Jason decided to get his hearing checked after realizing he was turning the volume up more frequently. “My wife would constantly tell me the TV or the radio was too loud, and I noticed I would have to crank things up sometimes in order to hear well,” he recalls.

“During an annual check-up, I finally asked my primary care physician about it. After a quick check, she recommended I see a specialist,” says Jason.

Prior to his appointment at Denton Hearing Health Care, he says, “There really wasn’t any fears or concerns. I was more curious in knowing if I had any hearing issues or was it another issue (such as like a wax buildup). I knew that if I had a hearing loss, I need to start to address it now instead of when I was older.”

Reflecting on his experience at Denton Hearing, Jason says, “Everyone is very professional and friendly. The practice is clean and well maintained. The front staff and the doctors were extremely professional and courteous. I had the tests, the results, and my options explained to me, and all of my questions were answered.”

Jason has found many advantages to wearing his hearing aids. “I have definitely noticed a difference [in my hearing]. I have them as part of my regular routine now, and they are non-evasive. Hearing better now, I can hold better conversations with my wife, friends, and co-workers.

“Also, I notice that the hearing aids lower the amount of white noise I hear from my tinnitus while using them. Also, the hearing aids I have can be adjusted for situations, such as in restaurants, or on a plane, or even at a concert. Having that kind of flexibility is a plus,” says Jason.

Jason rates Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10 and continues, “Hearing loss is not going to magically go away. If you have a hearing loss, it’s better to discover it earlier so you can help mitigate the loss which has already occurred, while helping improve your quality of living.

“These days, hearing aids are so much more than a tool. The ones I have also stream, and I am one who has them in constant use throughout the day for work calls or streaming content. They are hardly noticeable (I have had several people comment that they are surprised I have them, as they could not notice).”

He concludes, “Finally, the staff at Denton Hearing Health Care are beyond professional and really do care about how your treatment is going and you as a person.”

Randy’s hearing loss was affecting his social life. He recalls struggling “when I would go to dinner out with friends and could not participate in conversations around the table.”

At the age of 38, Timothy “didn’t want over-the-ear hearing aids.” He had already tried hearing aids from another provider, and prior to his appointment at Denton Hearing Health Care, he wondered, “Was it going to hurt like the cheaper ones that I had tried?”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, Timothy doesn’t hesitate to recommend them to others. “Do it!” he exclaims.

She recalls, “My biggest concern is that everyone thought I was rude or a snob because I didn’t answer them. But I never heard them speaking to me.”

I can’t imagine my life without my hearing aids!”

Roger suspected something was wrong with his hearing “when my wife and children had to start repeating themselves to me to understand a simple direction or command.”

Denton Hearing Health Care was recommended to Roger by VA Community Care, so Roger says he “felt comfortable” with them as a hearing care provider.

And he wasn’t disappointed.

“I was very impressed with your operations,” says Roger. “It was right on point of what I needed.”

When Kevin recalls the early days of his hearing loss, he explains its challenges from a child’s viewpoint.

“I was quite young at 8 years old, so not having a mature mindset or the mature mental capabilities of fully understanding my hearing loss, my biggest concern was being made fun of by my peers,” he begins.

“I felt embarrassed by having to wear hearing aids because they stood out and made me look different from every other kid, but I was now able to hear things that I had never heard before, so I felt happy in that regard.”

As someone who has worn hearing aids for most of his life and visited many audiologists over the years, Kevin approached Denton Hearing Health Care without any major concerns. He describes the team as “friendly, professional, knowledgeable.”

Kevin has many positive things to say about his experiences with hearing aids and how they’ve helped him daily. “Hearing aids have impacted my life by giving me the ability to hear better than I do without them,” he says. “Of course, this is the function of hearing aids, but they greatly impacted my life during my college years when I was in huge classrooms and needed to hear what the professors were teaching. Albeit it was helpful to sit at the front of the classroom, but hearing aids certainly aided in my overall college education.”

Before contacting Denton Hearing Health Care, I did not have any preconceived fears or concerns. I told myself that everything would be fine.

When I first visited Denton Hearing Health Care, I was impressed by the caring staff. Hearing aids have had a wonderful impact on my life. If anyone is concerned about their hearing and is considering Denton Hearing Health Care, I would recommend that they take this important step.

In 2019, my husband and I noticed we were constantly shouting at each other, so we decided both of us should have our hearing checked. As a retired UNT faculty member, I was happy to go to UNT Speech and Hearing, where we could support the academic programs and work with experts who understood my health care plan. We were surprised to learn that I was the one with hearing loss, but I was confident it could be corrected.

I contacted Denton Hearing Health Care when I lost one of my hearing aids during a semester break at UNT. I felt lost without them and didn’t want to wait for the new semester. Plus, Denton Hearing Health Care keeps monthly hours at my retirement village, where we now live, which influenced my decision to call.

I had no trouble making an appointment within a week, and while the office’s handicap accessibility wasn’t perfect, the staff were always alert and helpful.

Hearing aids have had a huge positive impact on my life, and I wear them all the time. While I’ve had a harder time adjusting to my new hearing aids, especially with care and use, the apps that adjust for different environments have been helpful.

I have total confidence in Denton Hearing Health’s diagnostic work. My transition to a more powerful brand of hearing aids was harder than I expected, but Denton Hearing Health is very willing to provide follow-up appointments.

My hearing loss is not drastic but annoying. I couldn’t hear lower conversations and missed a lot. My hearing aids are a huge help. All the ladies at Denton Hearing Health Care were friendly and eager to help. I was impressed immediately.

Since getting my hearing aids, it’s the little things that I can now catch that make a difference. Conversations with my wife and friends are much easier, although the only drawback my wife faces is that I enjoy listening to music now, so she has to get my attention before speaking to me!

If someone is concerned about their hearing and is considering visiting Denton Hearing Healthcare, I would wholeheartedly advise them to go for it. You will not regret going; in fact, you might regret not going sooner. Don’t be like me and let vanity stand in your way. Life is better when you can hear it.

I thought I might be having trouble hearing right after my chemo and radiation treatments, it was incredibly frustrating not being able to listen to my granddaughter’s or great grandson’s voices. Before reaching out for help, I had no preconceived fears or concerns because Katie was so awesome—she explained everything and helped me every step of the way. Initially, I felt scared, but they treat you like family and are very caring and helpful.

Since getting my hearing aids, it’s been a life-changing experience! I can now hear people laughing, singing, and even appreciate the small sounds that I once took for granted. The fact that they were customized in my favorite color, pink, made it even more special. For anyone concerned about their hearing and considering a visit, I would tell them to go ahead and get it checked out—you will be amazed at how it can help, and the ladies at the clinic are so kind!

I began having to read lips to fully understand what was being said. Before contacting the clinic, I had some worries, particularly the fear of losing my hearing completely. I also felt like I was “too young” for hearing aids, having started to wear them in my early 40s. At the clinic, everyone was nice and professional, making me feel completely comfortable with their ability to help my hearing issues.

My hearing aids allow me to hear without people having to “yell” at me. To anyone concerned about their hearing and considering a visit to Denton Hearing Healthcare, I would say, “GO FOR IT! They are awesome!”

George’s experience with hearing aids prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care wasn’t a bad one, but it left him longing for something better.

Recalling the moment he realized he had a hearing loss, George says, “I was in a work meeting and couldn’t make out what they were saying, and it was embarrassing to ask questions. I knew I needed hearing aids but had concerns on how well they really worked. My parents had paid a lot for hearing aids and had minimal success. I didn’t know of the new technology that hearing aids have today.”

Prior to making an appointment with Denton Hearing, the cost of hearing aids was George’s biggest concern. “I had researched hearing aids and was interested in trying the new technology, but I had not tried before because the cost didn’t seem worth it.”

George’s views began to change following his first appointment. “Denton Hearing Health Care was great. It is clean and the staff is helpful and friendly,” he says.

“I have had two sets of hearing aids. The first was purchased from Sam’s and they were good and improved my life so much. They were just plain hearing aids with only a couple of programs, but they were so helpful. I could go to meetings at work and hear everything that was being said and never felt left out of the conversations anymore,” he recalls.

However, the devices George was prescribed following his comprehensive hearing assessment have really impressed him. He continues, “The 2nd pair of hearing aids had more of the latest technology. I got these from Denton Hearing Health Care.

I got these just as covid started. These hearing aids hooked up to my phone and/or computer. I was now attending meetings online and it gave me great freedom to have the calls come right into my hearing aids. I could hear everything that is going on and never felt out of the conversations. I could take an active part in the meetings and train individuals easily, even if they were thousands of miles away, all through my phone and hearing aids.”

George says his new devices have also improved his communication with loved ones. “My wife is very happy with my hearing aids as well. She refuses to talk loudly so I can hear her, so without hearing aids, I just ignored what she had to say. Now, I can hear her and listen to her and it makes for a happier relationship.”

George rates Denton Hearing Health Care a 7/10 and offers potential patients the following advice: “Go and get your hearing tested. Hearing aids will change your life. Before I got hearing aids, I had a hard time understanding my wife and grandchildren. I could be in the same room with my grandkids and since I couldn’t understand them, I would just zone out. With hearing aids, I am an active participant with my wife and family because I hear what is going on. My life is so much better just being part of their lives.”

Oftentimes, the person with a hearing loss is the last to know. Douglas knows this all too well. Recalling his situation, he says he realized he had a hearing loss when “I was asking everybody what they were saying.”

Douglas also knows how easy it is to deny that there is a problem. “I became mad at everyone and blaming everyone for whispering,” he says. “My wife finally sat me down and told me it was my hearing and we needed to do something about it.”

This is when Denton Hearing Health Care received Douglas’s call for help. Douglas was pleased with the results. He says the team was “very professional and willing to listen to my problem.”

Following a comprehensive hearing assessment, Douglas sat with his audiologist and considered his best hearing care options. He decided to go ahead with the hearing devices that were recommended to him based on his unique hearing needs.

For Douglas, his hearing aids are a life saver. He says, “They changed my life. I am able to participate in conversations and understand what’s being discussed.”

Giving Denton Hearing a 10/10 rating, Douglas advises others, “Get there as soon as you can. They can help you.”

Anonymous was born with a severe hearing loss and had experienced care from other hearing professionals before turning to Denton Hearing Health Care nearly forty years ago.

Recalling when she decided to make a change, she says, “My only concern was that I had had a bad experience previously with a very different ‘hearing professional’ who turned out to be a high-pressure hearing aid salesman.”

She continues, “I was cautious at first when I first contacted Denton Hearing Health Care, but I quickly learned I could trust Chris and his wife, and I feel the same trustworthiness toward his successor, Dr. Katie.”

Remembering her very first appointment at Denton Hearing, Anonymous says, “I went in cautiously the first time, but I quickly became convinced that Chris was really there to help me, not to make a fast buck by selling me a hearing aid. He really cared, and so does Dr. Katie.”

Despite the severity of her hearing loss, Anonymous is grateful for the support her hearing aids give her on a daily basis. She explains, “Although I have depended mostly on lip reading my entire life, hearing aids help make me aware of environmental sounds around me, alerting me to look for the sound and respond to it. For example, when my children were babies, my hearing aids helped alert me to their cries, so I could go immediately and check to see what they needed.”

Anonymous rates Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, saying, “DHHC has worked with me and my hearing needs for almost 40 years, and I’ve never had a bad experience with them. I have always been treated with utmost respect and dignity, and I respect and trust them completely.”

Lela already was experiencing a problem with her hearing, but one day it would change drastically forever. She says, “I had some problems, but my husband shot a shotgun on the porch, and I was inside the door and it blew out my ears and head.”

Although she didn’t have any concerns about visiting Denton Hearing Health Care following recommendations from her friends, Lela wasn’t holding out for much success in treating her damaged hearing. “I had other family members with hearing aids,” she says. “I knew that I probably would never be able to hear perfectly.”

Lela says she “was impressed” with Denton Hearing and the care she received, although she adds, “I still cannot hear very well. I do have trouble understanding lots of people.”

Julie says she was impressed with the team at her first appointment. “Everyone was extremely kind, patient, and understanding,” she says.

Following her comprehensive hearing assessment, Julie was prescribed hearing aids. Not only do her new devices help with simple things like watching TV, but Julie also considers them a life saver.

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, Julie encourages others, “Don’t hesitate – get an evaluation. The sooner you go, the sooner you’ll be able to hear better.”

She continues, “I did customer service for a company, and it was all via phone. I was afraid of it getting worse and the effect it would have on my job performance.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing, she says she did have a few worries about wearing hearing aids – if she really needed them. “I was just afraid of how the hearing aid would look and perform,” she says.

Recalling her first appointment, Teresa says, “It was wonderful. From the time I walked in the door till I left, everyone treated me at a professional level but also treated me as an individual on a personal level. Loved the doctors.”

When Jim became aware of his hearing loss more than two decades ago, his initial choice of hearing devices wasn’t entirely based on what was best for his individual hearing needs.

Recalling his better hearing journey to date, he says, “I am 77 years old now. It’s been over 20 years since I first realized I needed hearing help and needed hearing aids. I was very concerned about the effects on my family relations and my ability to maintain and advance in my work.”

Jim continues, “I didn’t research the different hearing aids that were available at that time. I went mainly by the availability and price. I had used multiple suppliers, brands, and types of hearing aids before becoming aware of the Phonak brand. My hearing had deteriorated to a point that I finally did some research and decided that Phonak offered a wide selection of aids that would provide the help I needed.

“The only concern I had was finding a good local hearing doctor. After some time, I decided that Denton Hearing Health Care was my best choice for me.”

Thinking back to his initial appointment with Denton Hearing, Jim says, “My first visit to Denton Hearing involved an in-depth and detailed hearing test. Doctor Lori Roby was the doctor that provided the test. She was very friendly and thorough from start to finish of the test. I had never had such a complete test before.”

Following his comprehensive hearing assessment, Jim was prescribed new hearing aids. Reflecting on his hearing aid experience, he says, “I have had several different hearing aids before. Some were better than the others, but they all helped in my ability to communicate. At work, they helped me communicate and translate detailed information. At home, they helped tremendously to share feelings and understanding that were previously difficult to do.”

Jim rates Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, adding, “In all my years of hearing loss, they have been the most thorough, professional, helpful, and friendly hearing service that I have experienced. I would recommend them for the service they provide and the Phonak equipment they offer.”

When James talks about his better hearing journey, he is happy to start at the very beginning.
He says, “I was a veteran and was losing my hearing and in 2015 the V.A. qualified me for hearing aids. I lived in Oklahoma and used the OKC V.A. for that initial pair.

“We moved down to Texas after I got the initial hearing aids. The time came to have them replaced and I did not want to go to Oklahoma City for replacements and I lived more than the 40 miles from a V.A. Audiology Facility in Texas.

“At that time, the V.A. had a program called the Veterans Choice Program that allowed qualifying veterans to use non-veteran medical facilities when they qualified and were over 40 miles from a V.A. facility. The program changed its name in 2019 and is now called the V.A. Community Care (Network). I don’ t know if the qualifications have changed. I qualified and the V.A. selected an audiologist practice close to me. That is how I became a client of Denton Hearing Health Care (DHHC).”

Upon his initial visit to Denton Hearing Health Care, James describes his experience as “very good.” Following his comprehensive hearing assessment, James’s hearing aids were upgraded to the latest devices.

He notes, “They have allowed me to continue to participate with people and enjoy programs. DHHC serviced my initial hearing aids from Oklahoma City V.A. and provided the new hearing aids in 2020 and has serviced them since that time.”

After years of hearing care, Sandy eventually found her way to Denton Hearing Health Care. She notes they were recommended to her by her ENT doctor.

At her first appointment, Sandy met with Dr. Caulder, who she says was “informative, kind, knowledgeable, and went through much of the same horrific treatment that I did as a child.”

Sandy is grateful for hearing aids and how they connect her to the world. “I can hear the birds sing … wonderful.”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, she adds, “I love Dr. Roby and Denton Hearing.”

Jill was 3.5 years old when her hearing was evaluated. While one ear could function with a hearing aid, the other one couldn’t, so she’s spent most of her life searching for the ideal solution and hoping new technology could one day help her. She’s also had to advocate for her hearing needs when other hearing care providers offered her conflicting solutions.

She explains, “I was a mature adult by the time I contacted Denton Hearing Health Care. I had moved from out of state to Texas and was working with another audiologist (in Texas) who was pushing the wrong hearing aid for my hearing loss and expected me to purchase the aid after a 2-week trial period.

“She was not listening to me. I called my former audiologist in the other state, and she was the one who told me the hearing aid was not the right aid for my hearing loss. The aid was only for mild hearing loss and I have a severe to profound hearing loss. She told me what the laws required of audiologists nationally and how to find a good audiologist.”

This is the point where Denton Hearing Health Care became a vital part of Jill’s life. She continues, “After doing some research and contacting

Denton Hearing Health Care, they helped me get my money back from the audiologist who was not listening to me, and then they fitted me with the correct hearing aid that I needed in order to function in a world of hearing.

“They were willing to give me a 60-day trial period. Texas only requires a 30-day trial period. The state I moved from always gave me a 90-day trial period. However, with the advent of digital aids and now that I have finally been fitted with a digital aid this past year, I am hopeful that I will not require as long of a trial period with future digital hearing aids.”

After wearing an analog hearing aid for so many years, switching to a digital hearing aid has been an exciting yet also scary option for Jill, but she’s hoping the technology is something she can get used to.

“Audiologists have tried for years to get me to transition to a digital aid (including Denton Hearing Health Care), but I could never function with one. I needed the longer trial periods to know if the hearing aid will work for me. Apparently, digital aids have come a long ways in the last five years so much so that for the first time, I have been able to function with a digital aid.

“There are some things that are better for me with an analog hearing aid that I was used to, but the Bluetooth feature on the digital aid makes up for the difference! I absolutely love the Bluetooth feature, a feature I never had before. It does take time to adjust to the digital aid, but a year later and I am still seeing improvement in my ability to make the adjustment.

“For me, transitioning to a digital hearing aid from an analog hearing aid was the most challenging adjustment. I know they continue to make digital hearing aids better and I believe it will be as good and better than my old analog hearing aid as they continue to make progress.”

Pleased with her care from Denton Hearing, Jill says, “Denton Hearing Health Care took care of me and looked out for my best interest! They listened! They were caring and very patient with me. They cared about my best interest at heart.

“I know they see many people who do not want to wear or even try wearing a hearing aid when they need to. The relationship with an audiologist is a two-way street. You need to earn their trust that you will try what they ask of you, but you also have to communicate with them as to what works and what does not. They don’t know unless you tell them.”

Jill is very grateful for her hearing aids and the life she can live despite having a profound hearing loss. “Hearing aids help me to live in the world of hearing people. It helps me be able to communicate with the people in my life. Without my hearing aid, I would have a hard time understanding what people say to me even with lip reading and that would be very frustrating to me.

“I would literally need to use sign language to communicate with those who sign, but that is not effective with those who do not sign. I love being able to hear the sounds that I can and do hear. I love that I can communicate with anyone!”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, she advises potential patients, “Be patient. It may take time to fine tune the hearing aid to the way you need it to be. Always communicate what works and what does not work. They can’t make adjustments if you are not communicating with them.

“Wear the hearing aid in a variety of environments both to get used to and to notice what is and what is not working for you. Don’t be afraid to ask your friends and family what they notice about you with and without the hearing aid.

“Make every effort to wear the hearing aid; the people in your life will appreciate being able to communicate with you and so will you!

“Denton Hearing Health Care really does have your best interest at heart! I travel the distance to Denton Hearing Health Care because of the service and trial period they provide me with. They have been very good to me, and I am very grateful for the services they provide.”

Dwayne has lived with a hearing loss for many years, first noticing he had trouble hearing when he graduated from college. “This was 1965, and I didn’t know anything about hearing aids,” he says. “I figured I’d have to live with my hearing problem.”

Care to get all your questions answered by a very caring professional person. It will be one of the most important things you ever do during your lifetime.”

Hearing loss not only affects the person with a hearing loss but their loved ones as well. Paul says, “My wife was tired of me saying ‘What?’”

Paul decided to seek help at Denton Hearing Health Care, although he did wonder, “Would the hearing aids actually help my hearing?”

At Paul’s appointment, he was able to explain how his hearing loss was affecting his life before undergoing a few simple hearing tests. His test results were available minutes later, and after discussing his treatment options with his audiologist, Paul was prescribed hearing aids.

He is satisfied with his new devices, saying, “They have brought my hearing back to what I would consider normal levels.”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 9/10, he advises others, “Get tested.”

Prior to his appointment, Douglas recalls, “My only concern was whether or not hearing aids would help with my hearing.”

Fortunately, the appointment went well. Douglas says the team was “friendly, understanding, and professional.” His new devices have made life so much easier and enjoyable for him. “I no longer need to turn the volume up on the television so loud that everyone leaves the room. I can now understand my grandchildren without asking them to repeat everything they say three or more times.”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, he advises others, “Over-the-counter aids are not the way to address your hearing problems. Many people have hearing problems that are at varying frequencies; only the doctor can address those type of problems.”

Oftentimes, the person with a hearing loss is the last one to know about it. This was certainly the case for Julia.

She recalls, “It came gradually, so it was my husband who noticed it first. He told me that because I couldn’t always hear everything that was said to me, my sense of humor was not as good. That bothered me because I like having a good sense of humor.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, Julia says, “I was afraid that if I started wearing a hearing aid, I would not be able to hear at all when I took it off. That was not the case.”

Julia was impressed with her comprehensive hearing assessment and remarks the office has “good equipment for testing.”

Her new hearing aids have made interacting with others much easier. “I can understand everything the pastor says in church, which is nice,” she says. “Everyone says I don’t talk as loud.”

Archie first became aware of his hearing loss while “in a machine shop.” At the time, he approached his situation rather calmly, as he believed “it was a common condition among us.”

However, prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, he admits he did have “just the usual concerns associated with shopping for such an important, expensive item.”

Archie has been a patient at Denton Hearing for a number of years now and is still pleased with his hearing care, saying, “All good impressions – then and now.”

Jacob’s hearing loss made him feel uncomfortable. He wasn’t aware of it until “people started saying that they greeted me, and I did not respond.” This left Jacob feeling “embarrassed.” At the time, he says, “I was confused about my deficiency and concerned about the future.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, Jacob was rather wary about any potential help they could offer. He explains, “I had tried hearing aids without much success in the quality of hearing, and I was convinced this was what I had to deal with.”

However, things started looking brighter for Jacob at his first appointment. “I was assigned to Dr. Katie Bessent from the beginning and my experience with her has been outstanding.” He describes her as “extremely patient, understanding, and supportive” and says she was “ready to listen to each and every concern I had and ready to help always.”

Jacob continues, “I have been her patient for over seven years, and she’s been the best in providing for my hearing needs.”

He says hearing aids have made a huge impact on his life, calling his devices “a boost in self-confidence.” Jacob says, “The lack of proper hearing had made me a recluse. I avoided company and shrunk from conversations. With my current hearing aids, I am more confident in my day-to-day life.”

He rates Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, concluding, “Hearing loss can be challenging. It can take away the quality of life. But with the right choice of hearing aids and with the help of a caring and supportive audiologist, one can get back most of what is lost.

“Based on my personal experience, with Dr. Katie Bessent at Denton Hearing Health Care, I would recommend this institution to anyone who needs help with their hearing.”

Oftentimes, hearing loss is dismissed and the person decides to ignore the problem until it becomes too difficult to live with. This is what happened to Catherine.

She recalls, “I knew for quite some time before I decided to do something about it. When my grandkids started to complain about having to repeat things for me, I decided it was time.”

Denton Hearing Health Care isn’t Catherine’s first experience with an audiologist. She had worn hearing aids before visiting, and there was one concern that left her feeling uneasy. She says, “I had actually lost some hearing aids and was really worried I would lose a new pair.”

At her appointment, Catherine found the team “highly professional.” Following her comprehensive hearing assessment, she was prescribed new hearing aids.

She loves her new devices and her fear of losing them has also subsided. “The ones I purchased from Denton Hearing have a small plastic piece that has helped the aids to stay seated,” she says. “I am basically able to function again without worrying about missing out on the important people in life.”

Giving Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10 rating, she advises others, “Don’t wait any longer. You will be so happy that you did.”

Remembering her first appointment, she says, “I was impressed with the knowledge and caring shown by Dr. Katie Bissent.” During her appointment, Monica had the chance to explain the challenges she was experiencing before taking a few short hearing tests.

When faced with her hearing loss, Debi says, “I needed to be able to hear to communicate with others.”

Unfortunately, her first attempt at better hearing didn’t go very well. She says, ”I went to a ‘box’ hearing aid company and they couldn’t help me efficiently.”

Debi’s next destination was Denton Hearing Health Care, and she says her first impressions were “extremely positive.” She says she really liked “the amount of personal service” she received “rather than being a number.”

She explains, “I had additional hearing aid needs and they were able to help me get the best hearing aids. The quality of the aids and service surpass any ‘box’ aids and companies. Because they were tested and fitted by an audiologist, I have the hearing that allows me to communicate with others.”

Rating Denton Hearing a 10/10, Debi says, “The people of Denton Hearing are personable and care about your needs. They work with you and help you get the best hearing aids that fit your budget. The office staff and doctors are the best around.”

Tim rates Denton Hearing a 10/10 and advises others to make an appointment. He adds, “The people at Denton Hearing are the best and want to help.”

For those who have served in the military, hearing loss is sadly quite common due to exposure to loud noises over time. Such is the case for Bobby, who was “assigned to an artillery unit.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, he says, “My concern was what will be the long-term effect of this on my hearing.” However, Bobby approached his appointment day with an open mind and knew there wouldn’t be any major surprises. “I had several hearing tests and knew that I had lost some hearing,” he explains.

Wallace has been a hearing aid wearer for a number of years and relocated to Denton from western Colorado three years ago. “My daughter, who lives in Argyle and has a hearing loss, recommended Denton Hearing Health Care because of the excellent hearing help they have provided to her,” he says.

Wallace was impressed with Denton Hearing the moment he walked through the door. “It was obvious that they wanted to help me, and the friendly service could not have been better,” he recalls.

Giving Denton Hearing a 10/10 rating, he advises others, “Don’t delay. Make an appointment. Your ability to hear is too vital and important to having a fulfilled life.”

Pam has been a patient at Denton Hearing Health Care for the last ten years. Her hearing loss became apparent while she was in her 50s, and she still recalls the struggles she experienced after all this time.

“I began having trouble hearing my customers and friends on the phone and in noisy environments,” she says. “Running a business was a challenge.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing, a few concerns weighed on Pam’s mind. “As with many people, vanity plays a role as well as money,” she explains. She was concerned about “spending a lot of money and not having them work.”

However, Pam was soon impressed with the care she received. “They were very concerned about getting the right hearing aid and fit for me. They were also very friendly and became like friends. They listen to any issues you have about the hearing aids. I like the fact that they are doctors with extensive training. You don’t get that with the little box stores,” she notes.

Overall, Pam is happy with her hearing aids and the care she’s received at Denton Hearing. Referring to her devices, she says, “They don’t cure all my hearing loss, but my glasses don’t cure all my vision loss. It is much better when I’m wearing them. I put them on in the morning and wear them until I go to bed. Phones, restaurants, TV, and general conversation is enhanced.”

Rating Denton Hearing Health Care a 10/10, Pam says, “I believe they are great people. It may be more expensive, but you get what you pay for. I am never charged for adjustments or advice. When I first started wearing them, they tried several different types and had to try several different earpieces until we found something comfortable for me. When my mother passed away and her hearing aids were very new, Denton Hearing adapted them for a friend. I highly recommend them.”

While in the US Army, a physical revealed that Bryan had suffered a severe noise trauma. At the time, he wasn’t thrilled about the prospect of wearing hearing aids and considered them a “waste of time and money.”

Joe gives Denton Hearing a 10/10 rating.

Kathleen is a seasoned hearing aid wearer, but she clearly remembers the difficulties she faced before she sought help. “You have to keep asking people to repeat what they said,” she recalls, “and you need to turn the volume up on the TV.”

When searching for an audiologist in Denton, she says, “I knew that I wanted to go to an established hearing business in Denton, someone that has a good reputation.”

At her initial appointment with Denton Hearing Health Care, Kathleen says, “Both of my ears were tested with various sounds, and I was given explanations on the findings.”

Kathleen has been pleased with the care she’s received and how her devices have helped her daily. She says her hearing aids have helped her “greatly.”

Encouraging others to make an appointment, she shares, “You’re more confident in interacting with others. I was surprised to learn that my hearing aids could be recharged every night (no batteries needed). They are programmed for each individual person; you can change the volume on them yourself. They are easy to put on and take off. I have the ones that sit behind the ears. I have had these hearing aids for years.”

Several clues indicated that Jana’s hearing wasn’t as good as it used to be.

She recalls, “When talking on the phone, I had to always use my left ear. I also noticed that my son’s low voice was impossible to hear and often had to ask him to repeat his words.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, Jana had unsuccessfully found a solution to her hearing loss at another provider, and this left her a bit wary the second time around. “My only concern was having gone to another hearing facility, I was not happy with their service, but I had heard good things about DHHC,” she explains.

Thankfully, her search for hearing care ended at Denton Hearing. She says her “first impression was excellent” and adds, “The office staff was friendly and helpful. The doctor was knowledgeable and understood my hearing issues. She advised me on my options to correct my hearing loss.”

Now, Jana can’t imagine life without her devices. “I wear my hearing aids daily from the time I get out of bed until I return to bed in the evening,” she says. “They are comfortable and reliable, and I hear better.”

However, she notes, “They aren’t perfect, as I still have trouble in loud restaurant settings. Overall, I am happy with them.”

Jana rates Denton Hearing a 10/10 and says, “I would highly recommend DHHC to anyone with a hearing loss or someone trying to help a loved one with a hearing loss.”

B.C. had been a hearing aid wearer for more than a decade. He recalls the moment his better hearing journey began, saying, “About 15 years ago my doctor said, ‘You don’t hear very well, do you?’”

When B.C. approached Denton Hearing Health Care for help, the hearing aids he was prescribed were a life changer for him. He recalls, “We tried on some hearing aids and it was like a New World. I had previously been a pilot for 40 years, and the jet engine did a job on my ears.”

B.C. continues to count on Denton Hearing for his hearing care, and he is thankful for his devices. “I wear them all day, every day, and one of the first things I noticed was there are lotta birds around,” he says.

Giving Denton Hearing a 10/10 rating, he advises potential patients to simply “Go for it.”

When Katy noticed a change in her hearing ability, her first concern was “where to go to be properly diagnosed.” She decided to give Denton Hearing Health Care a try because “they were highly recommended.”

Upon arriving at her appointment, Katy found the Denton Hearing team to be “friendly, knowledgeable, and caring.” During her comprehensive hearing assessment, a few tests were conducted, which resulted in Katy being prescribed hearing aids.

Overall, life is much easier for her now. Katy says she “feels more a part of conversations” and is “less frustrated.”

She gives Denton Hearing a 10/10 rating and to anyone considering an appointment, she encourages, “Go there, for sure.”

Alice suspected she might have a hearing loss when she experienced “trouble hearing most women’s voices” and had “some difficulty hearing phone calls.”

Prior to visiting Denton Hearing Health Care, she recalls being “concerned about the severity of my hearing loss and the expense to address it.” Nevertheless, Alice didn’t let her concerns change her mind about seeking help.

She describes her first impressions of Denton Hearing as “fantastic from the moment I walked in the door.” Alice adds that the team was “friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, answered all my questions!”

Her comprehensive hearing assessment revealed that she would benefit from hearing aids. Neither the Denton team nor her new devices have let Alice down.

“I can hear TV and phone calls at a normal volume,” she notes. “Women’s voices are easier to understand.”

Alice rates Denton Hearing a 10/10 and advises others in a similar situation, “Get your hearing checked and assessed. Don’t wait for it to become an issue in your work or personal life.”

I first realized something was amiss with my ears during a Bible study group when I noticed that voices were muffled. This realization led me to have some fears about whether I could be helped. However, the clinic put me at ease. The staff were patient and understanding. I love them [my hearing aids].

My world has opened up. I will attend group activities now. If someone is concerned about their hearing and thinking about visiting, I would encourage them to call Denton Hearing and make an appointment.

The first moment I realized there was something wrong with my hearing was in my 60s. I did not want to believe my hearing was really that bad. I was concerned about costs and what my health insurance would cover.

When I arrived at Denton Hearing Healthcare, I had a good feeling based on recommendations from other doctors. I was immediately comfortable with the original husband and wife team who owned the clinic, and I’ve found that the new generation owners are just as welcoming. Since I began using hearing aids, I’ve noticed that the quality of sounds is significantly better. However, I do prefer not to wear them while working in the yard, and in very loud restaurants, I sometimes take out the non-lead device rather than adjust the volume.

If you’re worried, just make an appointment to meet one of the doctors, or have a hearing test, then stop back to talk about the results. On my recent hearing test in 2024, the quality of the sound I was receiving dropped. Thanks to my top hearing aid product, they were able to make an adjustment, which sorted my issue.

I’ve had a hearing problem for many years, and it seems to be getting worse; however, Denton Hearing consistently keeps my situation up to date. Before I contacted them, I did have some concerns, especially since I was previously treated by the VA where it was difficult to secure appointments. Thankfully, Denton Hearing works diligently to keep me current with my hearing care.

My first impressions of the clinic were that it had a nice, relaxing atmosphere with friendly people, there’s no hassle. My hearing aids help me socialize as I get older. You don’t know what life is like if you are having hearing problems. They are not as noticeable as you would think.

I noticed that I was not hearing very wellI. I was left out of conversations, and people didn’t seem to talk to me. After having my hearing tested, I was relieved to learn that hearing aids were available to help me become part of conversations and hear people talking to me. When I put the hearing aids in, it made all the difference in enjoying conversations and fully participating in them. Since I had been wearing hearing aids for years, I had no fears or concerns and believed Denton Hearing Health Care would be a step up.

I was pleased to see how pleasant the office was and how welcoming everyone was. I felt like this was a good place to go. Wearing hearing aids has significantly improved my life. I no longer feel like I’m missing out on conversations and everything else happening around me. If someone is concerned about their hearing and considering a visit, I would encourage them to see you. If they aren’t pleased, they can always explore other options, but I’m confident they would realize they made a great choice.

While driving in my car, I thought I could hear the buzzing of insects in the summer. I realized that was not possible; the noise in my head from tinnitus. I already had hearing aids and was simply looking for a good hearing care provider and newer aids. I thought both the staff and office were nice.

I really appreciate updating to hearing aids with Bluetooth connection for music and phone calls. If someone is concerned about their hearing, I would tell them to do it and not wait. It won’t get better on its own, and improving your hearing will greatly improve your life.

I knew bad hearing would be hereditary, but it still made me feel like I was getting old when it started affecting me. I didn’t have any real fears before contacting you since my father, his sisters, and my older sister already had hearing aids. My first impression was that everyone was very professional, knowledgeable, and caring.

Wearing hearing aids has helped me a great deal—I now hear things I was missing before without even realizing it. For anyone concerned about their hearing, I would say, make an appointment! There’s no pain involved in the test.

I noticed I couldn’t hear certain noises anymore, like the blinker in my car or the click and slap of a ceiling fan, which was fine with me. But then I had to strain to hear some people talk to me. Why would they whisper? In the end, it was getting upset with my children, who told me repeatedly I need a hearing aid, and that they are tired of repeating to me.

My first impressions of the clinic were positive— the room was cool, and the staff were very friendly. Now, I can hear everything around me much better. While there were some noises that I didn’t really miss, it’s nice to know that nobody can sneak up on me anymore.

If you’re concerned about your hearing and considering a visit, I would absolutely say go for it. It’s worth it.

I didn’t have a specific ‘first moment’ when I realized I had a hearing challenge, but after retiring in 2015 and moving to Europe, I began noticing I couldn’t always make out what people were saying at the store or with friends in noisy restaurants. At first, I thought it was due to the noisy surroundings or their accents when speaking English.

When I returned to the U.S. in 2019, I could tell things were getting worse, but I managed with headphones or hearing devices for watching TV. Those devices, which were supposed to improve speech clarity, were ineffective because they also amplified background noise. I resisted doing anything until 2022, when I finally got a comprehensive exam.

My only real concern before contacting you was the cost and effectiveness of prescription hearing aids. I wasn’t worried about appearance or being self-conscious about wearing them. My first impression of you was that you were very professional and straightforward with my test results. I’m planning a new exam in 2024 to compare with the one from 2022.

Wearing hearing aids has improved my life somewhat, though I’m still adjusting from using headphones for TV and music. I’m also learning how to best adjust the aids for different environments. For anyone concerned about their hearing, I would recommend getting an exam and a second opinion, as it is a significant expense. I also suggest consulting Consumer Reports and other reviews for feedback on different brands and models.

During business meetings when I noticed I couldn’t hear what was being said unless I was looking directly at the speaker. Before reaching out, I had some worries about whether hearing aids would be uncomfortable and if they would effectively screen out unwanted noises. However, my first impression of the clinic was that it was friendly and focused.

I couldn’t work without them [my hearing aids]. If someone is concerned about their hearing and is thinking about visiting, I would strongly encourage them to do it as soon as they can.

Although I can’t pinpoint the exact moment I realized I had a hearing challenge, I became aware that I was continually asking my family to repeat themselves and was struggling to hear in public settings. Before reaching out to the clinic, I had some concerns about whether I would actually wear hearing aids. However, upon visiting, I found everyone to be very nice, caring, professional, and personal.

Since getting my hearing aids, my life has significantly improved—I hear my family and others so much better, and I no longer have to ask people to repeat themselves nearly as often. If you’re concerned about your hearing and thinking about visiting, I wholeheartedly recommend that you do yourself a favor and make an appointment. In fact, I’ve already recommended Denton Hearing to several friends.

I had to keep asking people to repeat themselves, and I thought it was them, not me.

I thought there would be a stigma around wearing hearing aids, but since I already wore glasses, it wasn’t a big stretch to have hearing aids as well. My first impressions of you were that you were competent and caring.

Wearing hearing aids has made an immense difference in my life. I still have difficulty at times, but when I take them out and try to interact with the world, the difference is huge.
If someone is concerned about their hearing, I would just say: do it.

I first realized something was up with my ears approximately seven years ago when I was 60. At that time, I noticed I could not hear speech as well, particularly in public places with background noise. Since I had previously seen another provider, I didn’t have any significant fears or concerns before reaching out to Denton Hearing. In fact, I was very pleased to find that they exceeded my expectations right from the beginning.

Upon arriving, my first impression was one of warm greetings from the front desk, which was reinforced by the friendly welcome from Dr. Katie. I recently went back for my one-year follow-up, and Dr. Katie checked my hearing and made adjustments to my hearing aids, leading to noticeable improvements in my hearing. She also updated the app on my phone, enhancing my experience even further.

To anyone who is concerned about their hearing and considering a visit to Denton Hearing Healthcare, I would strongly advise: don’t wait. Get it done and start hearing what you’re missing out on. If you’re into technology, like I am, you’ll find that my hearing aids connect seamlessly to an app on my phone, allowing for easy adjustments. I utilize a “Companion Mic” that my wife clips to her shirt, making it much easier for me to hear her voice over background noise in restaurants.

Alternatively, we can set it in the middle of the table when we’re out with the kids. Not only that, but I can answer phone calls hands-free and even listen to music with my hearing aids acting as earbuds. The process at Denton Hearing Healthcare is straightforward and has made a significant improvement in my life.

At my father’s funeral, I struggled to hear my very eloquent son giving the eulogy clearly. It was a moment I can’t get back, and that’s when I knew I needed to seek assistance. Thankfully, my experience with Denton Hearing was fantastic. I was treated well and with respect, and walked through every step of the process.

Since I began wearing hearing aids, I can hear much better. To anyone concerned about their hearing and considering a visit to Denton Hearing Healthcare, I would say, “Give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.”

I first became aware of my hearing loss several years ago as a veteran. I went to the V.A. in Oklahoma, where I lived at the time, and they fitted me with a pair of hearing aids. The V.A. has a Community Care program that allows veterans to choose a private hearing aid clinic if they qualify, and I was assigned to Denton Hearing Healthcare. I have been extremely satisfied with their services for almost ten years.

Before reaching out to them, I had no preconceived fears or concerns because they were conveniently located less than 10 miles from my home. Both my wife and I were pleased with the products and the friendly staff. Since using hearing aids, they have significantly improved my everyday life by helping me pick up most conversations. Living in a senior living community, the hearing aids also assist me in filtering out background noise when we are in public areas.

If someone is concerned about their hearing and is considering a visit to Denton Hearing Healthcare, I would encourage them to have a hearing test performed. It’s also beneficial to verify whether insurance covers a portion of this service. Getting to know the staff during the visit can help with the decision-making process.

I began misunderstanding words on the TV, and I would ask my husband what they said, and his response was often different from what I understood. I also found myself asking him to turn the volume up. Over a few months, it became clear I might need hearing aids, and my husband started expressing his concerns as well.

Years ago, there was a stigma attached to wearing hearing aids, which made me hesitant. However, I’ve realized this stigma has faded, and many people now wear them openly. The aids have also become smaller and more stylish; in fact, I bought pink ones that I absolutely love!

I had seen their ads for years under the previous owners, and when I noticed Katie’s picture in the ads, I felt curious about their services. I’ve been very pleased with the level of service I’ve received since then.

Now, I feel more confident in group settings because I no longer need to ask people to repeat themselves. My husband is also much happier since I don’t have to blast the TV volume anymore, nor do I keep asking him to repeat things.

Dr. Monroe recently refitted me for another pair of hearing aids, and the process was very easy after my hearing test. The clinic is conveniently located in the center of Denton, making it easily accessible. Overall, it was a FUN process!

I first realized something was up with my ears for a while, but thought I was too young to have hearing aids. It wasn’t until my family and friends kept insisting that I go have my hearing checked that I finally broke and went. Everyone was caring, explained what would happen, and allowed me to ask any questions.

Hearing aids allow me to hear conversations, especially when in a large group or when sitting in the back seat of the car while someone is talking in front of me. To anyone who is concerned about their hearing and considering a visit, I would say, “Go.” You will soon realize just how much of the conversations you were missing.
