Real help for Misophonia and Hyperacusis. My teenage daughter is finishing up her treatment at PAC…read moreAudiology for both Misophonia and Hyperacusis. We are very grateful to Anna Mamiya and the team at PAC for helping our daughter! Her condition made everyday life for her very stressful and painful. It impacted pretty much every aspect of her life and determined what we could do as a family. We are now able to eat dinner as a family again and go out in public to loud spaces - like the mall, Costco, etc. School has become much easier. The treatment does not cure misophonia, but it does teach her brain that the trigger sounds are not something that it needs to react strongly to and get away from. Yes, chewing sounds will always be annoying, but there is no strong emotional response anymore. I highly recommend anyone dealing with misophonia or hyperacusis to have a consultation with Anna Mamiya. She explains the science behind the treatment and what can be achieved. It all lined up with what I had already learned about the conditions so it made sense to have my daughter get the treatment. I am so glad we did! Life is so much easier now for her and us!

Dr Maimaya is the second audiologist I've used. I had no point of reference for the first folks and…read moredidn't realize what I was missing. She was incredibly thorough and took time to explain to me what she was doing and what my results meant. I didn't feel rushed and felt like my options were clearly explained. The craziest thing is that when I went to pick up my new hearing aids, she forgot to give me the cable for the charger. I didn't realize this until she showed up at my house that evening to drop it off. That's someone who takes their responsibilities seriously and cares about their patients. Follow ups have been super helpful in adjusting the aids to my needs. Highly recommended.

I have nothing but praise for this HearUSA location in Bellevue WA…read more I was a new patient, and believe me I dreaded the process of getting hearing aids until my Medicare kicked in. Firstly, the receptionist KellyAnn was so friendly and easygoing, yet efficient. I was quickly given an appointment and to my surprise, I didn't have to wait weeks for it like in the past with my other Audiologists. I had my hearing test with Mira Rudic, an experienced Audiologist originally from Eastern Europe. I am always very curious about the science of my body, and as we went through my test results point for point, we discussed my specific hearing issues and what hearing aid technology options would best benefit me. There was zero up-sell. Zilch. She asked lifestyle, preferences, behaviors, and aesthetic questions so I could drill down through the options quickly. Mira has a 7+ year background in health coaching too, which may be why she is so customer-centered and patient. I took quite a while getting my hearing balanced with the Signia T AX aids, and Mira never made me feel rushed even though I went well beyond my appointment slot. In short, I returned to have adjustments and I was even happier with my purchase and the whole experience. Many people recommended I go to Costco, but research proved that the new Signia Hearing Aid technologies that my hearing loss will benefit from isn't found in even the top end models there. I can easily recommend this HearUSA location for Audiology and hearing aids. I did a ton of research and though I spent more for an upgraded model than Mira had first recommended, I feel confident that I made all the right choices.

Not great. I would go to a different clinic…read more I set up an appointment to set up some in ear hearing protection. I was purchasing two items therefore they did do two sets of molds. First off they hurt my ear. I literally thought they burst my ear drum and it took a few days for that pain to subside. I'm okay now so thankfully I don't think they tore anything. They sent the molds to the wrong location so I had to come in again. Throughout the process they were pretty polite so I didn't mind taking time to get to the office. They hurt my ear again. All this is fine but when it came to payment they didn't send me the bill for a long period of time. I did get a few from my insurance company stating how much they were willing to pay the clinic and later they changed that number. After the insurance number finally posted a few months after the appointment I expected the bill from the clinic. The message came but with fury. They were accusing me of attempting to dodge the bill saying they had sent multiple invoices to my house and to my email. I had not received anything via snail mail, and a quick search in my inbox showed I did not receive any email invoices other than the one sent right before they sent me the text message. I asked them for proof that they've been attempting to contact me but later I did notice on the bill itself it showed the date for when the insurance paid them. It was a few days ahead of the day they contacted me further supporting the fact that they were never going to send me a bill and had not before they got their money from insurance first. Long story short. The experience was below par but what's keeping me away is how they treated me when it was time to pay. For the record I paid immediately and wish to not have any further contact with this clinic.

The short version: Do NOT get hearing aids via Optum/Polyclinic. Go to Costco's hearing services!…read more Here are the gruesome details: I had hearing tests in 2019 and 2022 (at the Madison location of Polyclinic's audiology department) that showed a decrease in my hearing over that time, and I was prescribed Phonak hearing aids in 2022. I paid approximately $4000 for the recommended aids. The charger failed after a few weeks, and was replaced as still under warranty. I returned again to audiology to say that the hearing aids were providing volume, but not clarity. Dr. Livingstone made a few adjustments, and then asked whether I could hear her clearly. I could, but we were in a sound-proof room and she was standing right in front of me. I continued to have issues with clarity, and also tried to get online help from Phonak. As a first-time user of hearing aids, I did not know what I should expect from the aids or audiologist. At the recommendation of a friend, I went to Costco's hearing services. Here's the experience there, and its contrast to Polyclinic/Optum: The Costco audiologist spent an hour testing my hearing--twice as long and with more detailed tests than at Polyclinic. The audiologist also checked rhe hearing aids I'd gotten at Polyclinic: She showed me a method of cleaning the aids that I had NOT been shown at Polyclinic She found that the left aid had failed entirel. Given my hearing tests, she was surprised that I was given the Phonak aids. She thought perhaps my hearing had gotten much worse since 2022, but when we looked at my 2022 hearing test, this was not the case. She said that the Phonak speakers had two little power for my hearing loss, and she thought that the in-ear tips were not the best choice. The Costco audiologist suggested different aids (after making sure I didn't want to return to Polyclinic to try again, instead off purchasing new aids from Costco--but after 2 years of frustration, I was ready to try new aids). She recommended some aids, and had me try a demo set that she adjusted on the spot to my hearing. This included walking out of the soundproof room into the noisy environment of the Costco warehouse, and making more adjustments to be sure that these aids would work for me. Less than a week later, my new aids had arrived and I returned for a fitting. The audiologist spent more than an hour on this fitting, making more precise adjustments to the aids, as well as all the pairings and settings needed for the phone app. This was, again, more than twice as long and with much greater detail than my fitting at Polyclinic. The Costco audiologist automatically booked me for another follow-up after I will have worn the aids for about 10 days, so that I can report any issues, ask questions and get further adjustments. At Polyclinic, after the fitting, I was simply told to "make an appointment if you have any problems. THE DIFFERENCE is almost indescribable: My ability to hear and understand conversations, the TV and more is orders of magnitude better. The phone app for the new aids is very effective and user friendly (the app for the aids from Polyclinic was glitchy, often would not connect with my aids, and it was difficult to get online help). The aids from Costco were half the price of what I paid at Polyclinic. In short, I got radically better service and improved hearing via Costco--at half the price. At Polyclinic, I paid thousands for aids that never gave good hearing clarity, whose charger failed within weeks, and with one aid that failed within 2 years (after the warranty had expired). I wish I had known in 2022 that I could do much better than what I was getting.
