“Hearing aids won’t really help.”

Many patients come to us believing that hearing aids will not make a noticeable difference. Often, this belief is shaped by outdated technology or experiences from years ago. What surprises many people is how quickly they begin to notice improvements once they are properly fit.

One of the most common changes patients report is being able to follow conversations with family more easily, especially with children and grandchildren.

Research has also shown that treating hearing loss is associated with a lower risk of long-term cognitive decline compared to leaving it untreated.

Supporting your hearing supports your overall well-being and connection to the people you love. 🫂💛

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. 💬

Today is a special day! We are celebrating 3 incredible years of Dr. Kehrwald owning and operating Elite Audiology Resources! Grateful for the trust of our patients and the opportunity to give back to our community. Here’s to continued growth, better hearing, and many more years ahead 🤍

I was at dinner with my family and realized I was doing my usual “noise math,” picking the seat where conversation feels easiest. 😅

That’s the thing about hearing: it’s not just ears… It’s brain work.

Research links untreated hearing loss with higher risks of cognitive decline, falls, and depression. The ACHIEVE trial even found that hearing intervention was associated with 48% less cognitive change over 3 years in older adults!

That’s why we focus so much on brain health at Elite Audiology Resources and why follow-up visits matter! Small adjustments can make a big difference. ✨

What’s the hardest place for you to hear clearly?

April Fools’ is all fun and games… unless you miss the joke.
Hearing well means more than just catching sounds. It means staying connected to conversations, laughter, and the moments that bring us together.
That’s no prank!

⏳ 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. 👂💚

As we celebrate National Doctors’ Day, I’ve been reflecting on what it really means to do this work.

For me, every appointment is an hour dedicated to you.

In that time, I’m not just looking at numbers on a graph. I’m listening for the moments you might be missing. Like grandkids’ voices, dinner conversations, choir practice, quiet talks with your partner.

I became an audiologist because I’ve seen how deeply hearing shapes connection, confidence, and independence, especially as we age. It’s an honor to be invited into those stories and to help people stay engaged in the parts of life that matter most.

Thank you for trusting me with your hearing health, today and every day. 💙👂

With appreciation,
Dr. Elizabeth Kehrwald

A patient told me, “I just avoid going out now. It is too loud anyway.” 😔

Restaurants are one of the first places people realize they are working way too hard to keep up. In difficult listening situations, your brain is straining to fill in missing words; it is exhausting.

I have felt that kind of fatigue in a noisy room, too. You can hear sound everywhere, but it still feels hard to follow the conversation that matters.

So when patients come in with this particular issue, we build a plan that focuses on clarity, comfort, and realistic expectations, not just turning things up. 🙅‍♀️

The small win this particular patient reported later was huge. They stayed at dinner longer, felt more confident, and stopped doing the constant guessing and smiling!

If you have been avoiding restaurants or group gatherings because listening feels like work, you are not alone. 🍝🍹 We can help!

Hey everyone! It’s your 🌼 Spring Cleaning Reminder! 🌼

I’ve been checking hearing aid warranties lately, and if you bought your devices in 2023, yours might be close to expiring.

A few of my favorite spring things:

🌿 opening the windows / the first warm day
🐦 hearing the birds in the morning
🚶‍♀️ taking a walk / getting outside after work
☕️ coffee on the porch / iced coffee season returning

And here’s my audiologist tie-in: one of my favorite behind-the-scenes parts of my job is Real-Ear Measurement (REM) and troubleshooting hearing aids.

It sounds small, but it can make a huge difference in speech clarity—especially when you’re trying to catch the “little sounds” that make spring feel like spring. 🐦🪻

If you’ve noticed you’re not hearing those higher, softer sounds as clearly as you used to (or speech feels muffled), that’s often an early sign worth checking. The good news? Sometimes it’s a simple fix.

Sometimes it’s a bigger conversation. Either way, we’ll walk you through it.
