Living with Tinnitus

As we start 2026, hearing aid technology is more advanced than ever, focusing on artificial intelligence, seamless connectivity, and even health monitoring—making them smarter and more discreet for everyday use.

At Forest Hills Audiology in Queens, Dr. Roxanne Borukhov and Dr. Kathleen Kalschmid offer the latest models from top brands like ReSound, Oticon, Signia, Unitron, Starkey, and Widex. These devices help adults and children over 6 regain clear, natural sound.

Key advancements in 2026:

AI-Powered Sound Processing → Automatically adjusts in real-time for clearer speech in noise, wind reduction, and natural music streaming.
Bluetooth Connectivity → Direct streaming from iPhones/Androids for calls, music, and TV without extra devices.
Rechargeable & Discreet Designs → Invisible-in-canal or receiver-in-canal styles with all-day battery life.
Health Tracking Features → Some models monitor activity, heart rate, or fall detection for overall wellness.
Custom Fit Options → From behind-the-ear to completely invisible, with domes or custom molds.

With over 30 years of caring service in Forest Hills (conveniently co-located with an ENT specialist), we accept most insurances including Medicare and offer house calls.
