Rental Hearing Aids now available at PHS! Did you know that only 30% of Canadians who could benefit from hearing aids actually have them? Affordability is part of the reason; that's why we are introducing our ground-breaking rental hearing aids program. It spreads the cost over three years with low monthly payments and gives our patients access to the best digital hearing aid technology available.

WHAT A GIFT IT IS TO SEE OURSELVES AS OTHERS SEE US. OR IS IT? Nineteenth century playwright Oscar Wilde said, "The only thng worse than being talked about is not being talked about." However, if we are going to be talked about, it's great to be in on the conversation!

It's a fact that often people's hearing d...Continue reading
