🎊👂 It’s Better Speech and Hearing Month!

Every May, I look forward to National Speech‑Language‑Hearing Month! This month is a chance to pause and highlight the importance of communication and hearing health. It is also a moment to recognize how far our field has come.

For those of us in this work, the month is a reminder of the countless stories behind every evaluation, fitting, and breakthrough. As science continues to evolve, our tools get better, and our understanding of communication disorders grows deeper. But the heart of what we do remains the same: helping people connect more fully with the world around them.

As we move through May, I’m grateful for the clinicians who shaped this field, the colleagues who continue to push it forward, and the patients who remind me why this work matters!

🔊 International Noise Awareness Day

Noise-induced hearing loss is more common than many people realize.

Nearly 1 in 2 young people listen to audio at unsafe volume levels, and many are regularly exposed to loud environments like concerts and sporting events. Over time, this exposure can cause permanent damage, often without immediate warning signs.

“I’ll deal with it later.”

It is very common for people to live with hearing loss for five years or more before they decide to seek help. During that time, many people adjust their routines without realizing it. They may stop participating in group conversations, avoid noisy restaurants, or rely on others to fill in the gaps. 🗣️

A helpful tip is to pay attention to the changes you have made in your daily life. If you notice yourself withdrawing or working harder just to keep up, a baseline hearing test can provide clarity and direction. Addressing hearing loss as soon as possible can make a significant difference in your quality of life. 💗

“I can just manage the way I always have.” 🤨

Many people believe they can continue managing their hearing loss by turning up the television, asking others to repeat themselves, or avoiding certain social situations altogether. Over time, these adjustments can quietly limit where you go and how you engage with the world around you.

A helpful reminder is that hearing aids are customized to your specific hearing needs. When properly programmed and supported, they can help reduce listening effort and improve clarity in areas that once felt overwhelming. You should not have to give up restaurants, social gatherings, or meaningful activities because of hearing difficulties. 🙌

One of the biggest myths I hear is: “If you have ringing in your ears, you just have to live with it.”

Here’s the truth: tinnitus is common, and while we can’t always “turn it off,” we can help turn down how much it takes up space in your day.

I’m Dr. Berger, and one of my favorite parts of what I do is helping people put words to something that can feel really hard to explain. Tinnitus can be exhausting, especially when it’s quiet, and your brain won’t “turn it down.”

If you’re feeling frustrated, worried, or exhausted, you’re not alone. Many people wait to bring it up because they assume nothing can be done. 🫶

We’ll take it step by step: we’ll talk through what you’re noticing, check your hearing, and build a plan that feels realistic and manageable, so you can get back to focusing on life instead of the ringing. 🧩

Spring Refresh 🌷👂

Spring isn’t just for cleaning your home. Your hearing aids deserve a little love, too! Dust, moisture, and wax buildup can affect sound quality, so regular cleaning is key.

💡 Tip: Wipe your hearing aids daily with a soft cloth and use your cleaning brush or wax pick to remove debris. Schedule a professional tune-up a few times a year to keep everything working perfectly. A little spring refresh goes a long way for clearer hearing!

TV volume creeping up is one of the most common ways hearing changes show up. 📺

A patient came in recently and told me, “My family keeps saying the TV is too loud, but I think the speakers are just bad.” They were a little skeptical, and I get it. It can be hard to notice changes when they happen slowly.

Honestly, I have been that person in other areas of life. I did not realize I was turning things up until someone pointed it out.

So we talked through what they were noticing at home, then we checked hearing and reviewed what it meant for everyday listening. Often, the issue is not that the TV is quiet. It is that certain speech sounds are harder to catch, so the brain asks for more volume.

The best part was the small wins. They told me the TV volume came down, conversations at home felt easier, and the evening felt more relaxed! If you have noticed the volume creeping up or you are relying on captions more than you used to, we can help you get clarity on what is going on! 🙌

Parkinson’s disease is often thought of as a movement disorder, but it can also affect how the brain processes sound. 🧠 Many people with Parkinson’s experience difficulty understanding speech, especially in background noise, even when hearing levels seem normal.

These listening challenges may increase with age and as the disease progresses. Monitoring hearing early and considering amplification when appropriate can help reduce listening effort and support clearer communication. Protecting hearing health plays an important role in staying connected and engaged in daily life. 💬

⏳ Hearing aids don’t need to be replaced every year.

Most hearing aids last 3–7 years, and often longer with proper care. Consistent at-home cleaning and a few in-office tune-ups each year can help protect your investment and keep your devices working their best for years to come.

A little maintenance goes a long way. 👂💚
