“I wanted to tell you what a huge difference my new hearing aids have made. Oh my goodness, what a difference! The clarity of speech is life-changing in my work environment. In the busy staff room at lunchtime, when there were lots of people talking amongst themselves and a colleague was speaking across the room to me, I could actually hear what she was saying - usually, I would avoid the room if it were busy. Having my phone calls through the hearing aids is awesome too, especially when I'm driving. So it's all super good and I am so pleased. I cannot thank you enough.”
