My ears produce a lot of wax. As such, I needed to go in for cleanings every two weeks or so. These were free. However, I bought the Jodi-vac vaccuum for hearing aids and don’t have to go in for cleanings anymore. My audi was really impressed with the device when I brought it in for a tutorial. This device is great and well worth it!
What your ENT told you over the phone is standard for my HA provider. Not a bad deal.
