Hearing Aids

A Best-Practice Fitting, Verified for Your Ears

Your devices are fit by a Board Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist who blends a hearing aid manufacturing background with hands-on patient care. Every fitting is verified with Real Ear Measurement (REM), the best-practice standard that confirms your aids are programmed correctly inside your own ear canal. We help you understand your insurance benefits, and complimentary cleanings, follow-up adjustments, and in-office service are part of your care from day one.

Hearing Aid FAQs

The hearing aid questions we hear most at Contra Costa Hearing Aid Center in Walnut Creek and Brentwood: independent brand selection, Real Ear Measurement, insurance, and ongoing service.

We're an independent practice, so we're not locked into a single hearing aid company. We fit devices from today's leading manufacturers, including Widex, Starkey, Phonak, Unitron, Signia, Rexton, Oticon, and ReSound, choosing from across that lineup based on your hearing test results, your daily listening environments, your dexterity, and your budget.

Across those brands you'll find rechargeable, Bluetooth-streaming, and discreet styles that cover mild to profound hearing loss, plus built-in tinnitus programs. The easiest way to compare your options is side by side at our Walnut Creek or Brentwood office, where you can see and handle the devices. Call or text (925) 203-9134 to set up a no-pressure consultation.

It starts with a free hearing test. Our Board Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist maps the degree and shape of your hearing loss in each ear, then talks through the situations where hearing is hardest, like work, restaurants, family at home, the phone, and the car. Your dexterity, your comfort with technology, and your budget all factor in.

From there we recommend the device, style, and features that fit your real life, not a one-size-fits-all package. Because we work independently of any single manufacturer, the recommendation is honestly yours. Appointments are unhurried and education-first, so nobody feels rushed toward a sale. Call or text (925) 203-9134 to get started.

We fit every major style, including behind-the-ear (BTE), receiver-in-canal (RIC), in-the-ear (ITE), in-the-canal (ITC), and completely-in-canal (CIC) models, plus near-invisible options for people who want the most discreet device possible. Smaller in-canal styles favor cosmetic discretion, while RIC and BTE designs leave room for rechargeable batteries, Bluetooth streaming, and longer wearing time.

The right style depends on your degree of hearing loss, your ear anatomy, your dexterity, and how visible you want the device to be. We walk you through the trade-offs so you choose with full information. Compare them on our hearing aid styles page, or call or text (925) 203-9134.

Contra Costa Hearing Aid Center accepts insurance from many companies. Because hearing aid benefits change often and vary plan to plan, we verify your specific coverage by phone before any device is ordered, then give you a clear out-of-pocket estimate up front. We'd rather confirm the details directly with your carrier than have you guess.

If your plan covers only part of the cost, or none of it, we'll walk through financing options including CareCredit and HealthiPlan, which offers no down payment and no prepayment penalties. See our financing options page, or call or text (925) 203-9134 to talk through your benefits with our team.

We treat better hearing as a process, not a one-time sale. Your fitting follows comprehensive best practices: precise programming to your hearing test results, Real Ear Measurement verification, and follow-up visits where we fine-tune the settings against your everyday listening at work, in restaurants, with family, and on the phone.

You're also protected by California's 45-day patient journey, a generous window to settle in and refine your hearing aids as you adjust to them. The aim is devices you genuinely wear and enjoy, backed by a specialist who stays involved long after the fitting. Call or text (925) 203-9134 to learn how the process works.

Yes. Your hearing aids come with ongoing care, not just a one-time fitting. We offer complimentary clean-and-check service, minor in-office repairs, and follow-up adjustments, and we re-verify performance with Real Ear Measurement as your hearing changes over time. Many small issues are solved on the spot while you wait.

We also repair devices not originally purchased here and send out to the manufacturer when a deeper fix is needed, often with same or next-day in-office turnaround. We stock common batteries and accessories too. Learn more on our hearing aid repairs page, or call or text (925) 203-9134.
