"I now use Widex hearing aids on a daily basis. They have improved my confidence at work and my overall quality of life. The rechargeable feature really fits my lifestyle so I always feel ready to go with them!"

Patrick is a car fanatic, music enthusiast and grandfather from Newfoundland. He stopped playing the accordion when his hearing loss was diminishing because he couldn't hear it anymore. His daughter helped him on his hearing journey so he could get back to the things he loves, like engaging with his grandson and playing music. Patrick now has control over what he wants to listen to and what he wants to tune out.
"I put off wearing hearing aids for a very long time because I thought I would be embarrassed if people could see me wearing them. I thought aids wouldn’t make much of a difference. Not one person has noticed, not even my close family. Now I tell everybody I am wearing them because I feel proud to be able to hear clearly again. I like seeing the surprised look on their faces when I tell them I am wearing hearing aids. Actually, I get a kick out of it. I can’t thank my audiologists enough for recommending Widex Moments. The App support is awesome. I have complete control of my settings and it’s so easy to use. Also, being able to take cell phone calls direct to my hearing aids is a blessing. It’s 100% clear and I can control the volume rather than ask the caller to speak up."
