Free Services Among the many reasons to come to Valdosta and Albany Hearing Aid Centers are the free services we offer to all our patients (excluding employment screenings and occupational health administration). We start with a free ear exam, hearing test and consultation. If you currently wear hearing aids, we offer a real ear measurement assessment, which confirms if your hearing aid is giving you the full benefit that you should be receiving. Your ears will be examined with a video otoscope (you will be able to see your own ear drum on TV). This examination helps insure proper fitting by measuring the amount of wax buildup in your ears. Along with our recommendations to help you hear better, we will answer all of your questions. You will be given information on the latest, most comfortable, hearing aids available. Because our Hearing Aid Repair Lab is on the premises, our patients receive free same day hearing aid repairs. Most other local companies need to send hearing aids to an outside repair facility (which can take up to 2 weeks). We also offer in-home service, if needed.
