Jule A
My Dad recommended Robbyn at Nex Gen Royal Oak and he was right she is awesome !! I was pretty nervous getting my first pair of hearing aids but Robbyn's patience and kindness made it a really comfortable process, from testing to adjusting the hearing aids to my specific needs. Having had such a great experience I've now just purchased my second set of hearing aids. Shelley always greets you with a smile and is great at helping answer any questions ! I'm happy to continue to recommend Robbyn and Nex Gen Royal Oak for hearing tests and purchasing hearing aids , really wonderful service.

I've been so pleased with the assistance I've received at NexGen Royal Oak! Robbyn's expertise and patience exceed any that I've encountered before, and I'm impressed by the positive difference I've experienced in my hearing. Thank you!
Nancy C
Although I was a little nervous at first after my hearing test, I truly felt relaxed and in good hands by the end of my first appointment. Robin was very professional, caring and extremely knowledgeable. She designed my hearing aids to correct background and voice sounds perfectly. I now feel more balanced with my hearing aids and comfortable in crowds. I highly recommend NEX GEN HEARING (Royal Oak).

A no-obligation hearing screening is free at any one of our clinics. This assessment includes the 3-point series of tests that includes measuring air conduction, word discrimination, and checking the eardrum and middle ear system. More comprehensive exams that require reporting such as physician reports, employment requirements or children’s hearing test are exempt from the free hearing test offer, check with your local clinic for rates.
The life of a hearing aid’s battery is impacted by many factors such as the hearing aid model, battery brand, battery technology, and how the device is used. The model of the hearing aid is integral in determining the life of the battery. Some hearing aids are better than others in terms of battery consumption while others offer features that will more quickly drain a battery. Batteries come in four common sizes (10, 312, 13, 675). Based on a 16 hour day of wear, the average lifespan for a standard battery is listed below:
⠀
Size 10: 3 – 7 days
Size 312: 3 – 10 days
Size 13: 6 – 14 days
Size 675: 9 – 20 days
⠀
If you prefer, rechargeable hearing aid batteries are also available for certain models of hearing aids that greatly improve the ease of replacing your batteries. Consult with your local NexGen Hearing aid practitioner for additional details.
- Voices sounding muffled or unclear
- Not being able to tell where a sound is coming from (known as localization)
- Needing higher volume settings on televisions, stereos and headphones
- Trouble differentiating between foreground and background noise
You do not need a referral from your family doctor to see an audiologist. If you suspect you are experiencing symptoms of hearing loss, it certainly is a good idea to discuss this with your doctor. However, you don’t need them to refer you to us in order to have your hearing tested.
If you believe your are experiencing hearing loss, don’t wait to see your doctor. Get in touch with us today for a free hearing test.
If your hearing aid is making a whistling noise, then you are hearing feedback in your device. Sound that was supposed to go into your ear canal has escaped the ear instead and been picked up by the hearing instrument’s microphone. The sound then becomes reamplified and put out of the speaker.
This can happen when the hearing aid does not fit properly. If you are experiencing a whistling noise in your hearing device, come see us at our clinic so we can have your hearing aid refitted.
