Adapto - The First Hearing Aid That Understands People - Oticon

What users are saying about Adapto
Mary Anne Fisher
About family life...
“Before I was fitted with
Adapto, I had a really
difficult time listening to
my grandson. A lot of
times I told him that he had to come up
to me and talk face to face, so that I
could understand what he was saying.
And now I don’t need to do that. I can
hear what he says - even if I’m driving in
the car and he’s in the back seat and I
have no way of seeing what he is saying
- I can still hear him.”
About life in the classroom...
“When I made a commitment to go back
to school, I realized that I needed to do
something about my hearing, which is
what drove me to get my hearing tested.
The difference is marvellous - I can hear
everybody in the classroom, including
soft-spoken people. I’ve taken computer
classes and I can even hear over the
computer noise. I was wearing a hearing
aid before, but Adapto has just made it
more natural.”

About socializing
with others...
“I’ve always had difficulty
hearing other people, even
at the same table with me
in a restaurant. But the few times I’ve
eaten in a restaurant since I got Adapto,
I’ve found that it’s much different. I can
hear everybody talk individually. I feel
like I can carry on a conversation with
them without a problem. These hearing
aids cut down on the background noise
and allow me to hear their speech.”
About life at the end of the day...
“Adapto has definitely allowed me to be
more relaxed at the end of each day.
They’re not a strain on me in any way.
The constant sounds I would get from
other hearing aids - it’s not there with
Adapto. It cuts down on those extra
sounds in the background - the ones that
are not important - and leaves me feeling
much more at peace at the end of the day
than before.”

About what other
people say...
“A question that often
comes up is ‘How long
did it take you to get used
to the hearing aids?’ I read a book one
time and it said you should wear hearing
aids for 10 minutes one day and 20 minutes
next day and if you have a problem,
see a psychiatrist. What a lot of bunk
that was! With the Adapto hearing aids I
had no trouble whatsoever. When they
put those hearing aids in my ears everything
changed. They felt natural. And
they felt comfortable.”
About how it can change your life...
“Some of my friends have asked, ‘Mike -
was it worth spending the money for a
hearing aid? What advantages have you
really had?’ Well, it has completely
changed my life. When I sit around with
people who have hearing problems and I
listen to the things they do to hear, I only
look back at what I did myself. It’s so
much easier to put a couple of hearing
aids - Adapto hearing aids - in your ears.
You’ll feel so much better and your life
will be a lot easier and happier.”
