At Rivanna Hearing Aid Center we realize that hearing is a gift and we must nurture it. Hearing opens us up to a world full of passion, possibility, and infinite variety. To revel in a child’s laughter, the emotional vibrancy of music, leaves crunching underfoot, birds singing, paper rustling; the sounds of life are endless. Let us help you make sure you don’t miss a moment of it.

We also actively participate in the prevention of hearing loss through the provision and fitting of hearing protective devices, consultation on the effects of noise on hearing, and consumer education.

Helpful hints

Wear your hearing aids for a few hours the first day and add an hour a day the following day, and the next, and the next, until you are wearing hearing aids most of the day. Do not try to set an endurance record! I recommend that you interact with people familiar to you during your first days with new hearing aids. Start in a favorable listening environment (such as one-on-one conversations in quiet) and work towards more difficult listening situations. Let your friends and family know you're using your new hearing aids.
