this is the first time i am getting hearing aids. i went to hear,USA recommended by united health care; i was very impressed with the dr. who i had the appointment with. i was so impressed that i left with the hearing aids. she used computer software to customize the devise for me. however they were very expensive. i have 90 days too get a complete refund. so i am now trying them out. they are behind the ear devise, "SIGNIA" with a good app in my iphone however i feel i spent too much on them and could possibly get others i like just as well for less. they were $2,499 each the list price was $4295. each and she said they had a 50% holiday special on. my son got ones that just go in the ear canals and you cant see any sign of them from the outside. i think i would prefer that as i wear a mask and eye glasses and they can fall out when i take the mask out. my left ear it is hard for me to get the thing in my ear canal. any advise would be appreciated. i do have an appointment at costco in a month so i will compare them
