    How does the MDHearing work?

    MDHearing offers a fully online approach to hearing evaluations and purchasing hearing devices. Its free hearing evaluation was designed by hearing aid specialists and ENT doctors and takes less than eight minutes to complete, with results arriving instantly.

    After you receive your results, you can choose between four different hearing aid styles. If you need more support, An MDHearing representative can walk you through your options with an easy-to-use comparison guide.

    After purchasing a device, you receive a 45-day trial that lets you test the hearing and comfort level. If any adjustments are needed, you can reach out to MDHearing’s team of dedicated hearing instrument specialists, who can assist in the exchange or adjustment process.

    MDHearing costs

    MDHearing offers four hearing aids that range from $199 to $799 per device. For customers who need two hearing aids, there is a slight discount when purchasing both at the same time.

    MDHearing runs frequent discounts, including buy-one-get-one-free sales, that help customers save money when purchasing hearing devices. Customers can also use the company’s monthly payment plans with 0% APR financing to pay off their devices over time if the upfront cost is too much. Shipping is always free with MDHearing.

    MDHearing FAQ

    How much does an MDHearing cost?

    Hearing aids start at $199 each, or $399 for a pair. MDHearing’s most expensive option is $799 each, or $1599 for a pair.

    Is MDHearing any good?

    Yes, MDHearing is a good option for customers who don’t need a custom-fit or custom-designed hearing aid. Its straightforward approach and free evaluations can save customers thousands of dollars on medical-grade hearing devices.

    Is MDHearing a PSAP?

    No. MDHearing sells medical-grade hearing devices used to treat hearing loss, not personal sound amplification products.

    Is MDHearing legitimate?

    Yes, MDHearing is a legitimate company.

    Do I need a doctor’s prescription or hearing test in order to buy MDHearing?

    No, you do not. But MDHearing and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommend that all adults receive a medical evaluation before purchasing hearing aids to ensure the hearing loss is not a symptom of a more serious issue and that hearing devices are the best solution.

    Is MDHearing any good?

    For customers who experience hearing loss and are OK with hearing devices that are not custom-fit, MDHearing is a great solution. Other companies offer custom-fit devices that are fine-tuned in person, which may be more accurate and comfortable, but these devices have a more expensive price tag. While these devices may be a better solution for some, the associated high cost can be a huge deterrent for others. MDHearing is a good option for people who prioritize budget over specific hearing solutions.

    Even though the Website said out of stock. Was sent a link to get to the Volt Max. Person was very helpful. The Volt Max had all the requirements I needed and then some. It only has one color but it is the color I needed.

    Aids work and fit well. Great app that is used to control aids. Had a problem with one charging properly. It and the charger were immediately replaced. Great customer service. I highly recommend MD hearing aids (mine are Volt Max)!

      I received the hearing aids within days of ordering, and I have received excellent support via email and YouTube videos that explain everything. I am able to hear much better than before! They were uncomfortable for the first few days, but now I am able to wear them all day without discomfort.

      I bought the CORE hearing aid from MDHearingAid. It did not meet my needs. I returned it and ordered the VOLT MAX. The VOLT MAX is a great hearing aid. There is an app that one can download from the App Store onto your phone or iPad (IOS 10.0 or above). This allows you to personalize the hearing aids specifically for your hearing loss. It does this by providing tones at various volumes like a hearing test for one ear and then the other. You press a button each time you hear a tone. It then loads this information into the hearing aids to compensate for your particular hearing loss versus frequency. The VOLT MAX works as advertised and provides hearing almost as good as ones costing much more. I would recommend that you give them a try. They have a 45-day trial period in which you can return the hearing aid for a full refund.

      I had hearing aids before from Costco but these MD hearing aids are so much better that it's hard to believe that they cost a fraction of what most hearing aids cost. I'm absolutely thrilled with them I can adjust the volume & type of hearing on my smartphone & I am able to hear friends in a group meeting or in a crowded restaurant for the first time in years. I'm absolutely in love with these wonderful hearing aids and the excellent follow-up care from the people in the company, constantly sending me recordings on how to clean them or use them properly. I really love this company for providing excellent hearing aids for a very affordable cost. Thank you, MD.

      Initially, I was extremely happy with the hearing aids I purchases and I also purchased the monthly 'insurance' option for 9.99 a month. About a month after purchase, one aid quit turning on and a couple of weeks after that, the other stopped turning on. Both were cleaned as per directions, etc. I called the numbers provided on their site and calls were answered with a message that all lines were busy, please call back. Finally found another phone number that was on my credit card stmt. I left my number for a call back. I was called back, but I was in the car traveling to a Dr. appt. and couldn't work with her at that point, so we agreed on a time the next day. She never called. Pretty frustrated.

      Called, left number got a call back, but at this point I am so not impressed with their service, I just asked to have the insurance cancelled as I will not be using this product. The person I talked to had major attitude and, in my book, really rude. Yes, I was frustrated, but his tone of voice etc, really put me off. My co-worker was listening as I had the phone on speaker so I could hear it, and she said "wow' he was rude when I finished the call. Like I said I was happy with the aids, but if this is the service provided and attitude, I cannot recommend this product to anyone.

      After discontinuing the use of the aids due to the tinny sound, I call MDHearing to have the tubes and warranty monthly fee cancelled. They said they would stop charging my CC. I noticed that they continued to charge me for an additional two months! I tried calling and emailing them with no replay. No wonder they receive an F from the BBB! Steer clear of MDHearing.

      Great company and products. Always there if you have issues and helpful. Product is latest technology and up to date. Works great on smartphones and can check different volume settings and even get support when needed.

      I never got a working pair after three tries with error-associated replacement mailings. Support requests were answered with generic videos. Long waits on telephone. No perceivable improvement of hearing in restaurant situation in my shortened trial.

      My MD hearing aid is the Volt+ and is easy to wear and easy to charge. The price was awesome and the customer service with the online audiologist was outstanding! My aids also came with bonus charging case, dehumidifier jar and replacement tubes and tips. The company also is available any time you need them. I am well pleased with this product and with MDHearingAid.
