Margaret’s Journey to Clearer Conversations
For years, Margaret struggled to follow conversations with her grandchildren. She often found herself smiling and nodding, missing the laughter and details that made those moments special.
After having her ears evaluated she received a comprehensive hearing test and was fitted with a Phonak hearing aid featuring AI sound processing.
“I can’t believe the difference,” says Margaret. “I hear every word clearly now — even in noisy restaurants. The team was so kind and patient. They explained everything in a way I could understand, and I felt completely comfortable throughout the process.”
Now, Margaret enjoys every conversation with confidence — proof that better hearing truly changes the way we connect.

David’s Return to Everyday Sounds
David, a 52-year-old architect, noticed that meetings were becoming more stressful. He often asked clients to repeat themselves, especially during video calls. Convinced it was “just background noise,” he delayed getting help — until a friend recommended Phonak Hearing Aids.
After a detailed hearing assessment, David discovered mild-to-moderate hearing loss. He was fitted with a discreet Phonak device that automatically adjusts to his environment using AI sound technology.
"It’s incredible how natural everything sounds,” says David. “From the soft sound of the ocean to clear voices in meetings — I feel like I’ve regained part of my life.”
Today, David continues to visit the clinic for regular check-ups and maintenance, confident that his hearing health is in expert hands.
