It’s recommended that you have your hearing screened at least once a year, especially if you are over the age of 40. — Dr. Joe Griffith

Accessible Hearings Aids (AHA), owned and operated by Dr. Joe “Tripp” Griffith III, continues to demonstrate their commitment to the latest digital hearing aid technology and to helping patients get the most out of their hearing aids. While serving the region from their Metairie office, they have reached a national audience through their YouTube channel that features several instructional videos on hearing aid cleaning and care. AHA also offers a free hearing evaluation that has assisted countless clients in obtaining free hearing aids if qualified through insurance or other support.

Dr. Griffith understands how crucial treatment of hearing loss is to a patient’s overall physical, mental, and emotional health. “Treatment of hearing loss has been shown to improve communication in relationships, sense of control over your life, social participation, and emotional stability,” Dr. Griffith said. The benefits of hearing aids increase the enjoyability of life’s moments and improve your engagement with people and your surroundings. Hearing aids enable you to contribute better to the workplace, increase your productivity, and allow room for greater improvements in personal and professional relationships.

Accessible Hearing Aid’s website has a free hearing test available for all ages to get patients started on their journey to better hearing. “It’s recommended that you have your hearing screened at least once a year, especially if you are over the age of 40,” Dr. Griffith said. AHA offers a free hearing evaluation that not only diagnoses problems and determines the best avenue for treatment but also guides patients trying to qualify for their hearing aids to be paid through private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, vocational rehab, national and state foundations, and the Veterans Health Administration. AHA also guarantees the most up-to-date advances in hearing aid technology, such as programmable processors fine-tuned for each user, noise and wind reduction, wireless connectivity to phones and other mobile devices, and compatibility with doorbells and smoke alarms.

After your evaluation, if it’s shown you could benefit from hearing aids, AHA offers live speech mapping and real-ear measures during fitting that immediately show the patient how their hearing will improve. Real-ear measures tune amplification based on your personal needs. Custom earmolds ensure that patients who play music, hunt, swim, and frequently use Bluetooth to make phone calls have the best protection possible. AHA supplies batteries in small packets or bulk boxes, so your new hearing aids will always be charged and ready to go. Before the end of your fitting appointment, you will receive information on cleaning your new hearing aids, replacing batteries, filters, and domes, and how to program Bluetooth/FM compatible accessories with your hearing aids. Accessible Hearing Aid’s team is always available to reassess this information with you for as long as you use hearing aids. Most of this information is publicly available in the form of highly educational videos on AHA’s YouTube channel.

Dr. Joe Griffith began a private practice in audiology in 2015, intending to make hearing treatment easily available by offering house calls and in-house visits to patients’ offices or living communities. He received his Doctorate in Audiology from Auburn University and is affiliated with the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association and the Louisiana Academy of Audiology. Dr. Griffith sees and treats patients of all ages.
