The Hearing Group wanted a website that had a clean fresh look, that was easy to navigate and that could be updated by their in-house staff.  BZA designed the site that leverages their image with a color palette which is true to their brand.  The site was built on the popular WordPress platform that allows The Hearing Group’s staff to quickly and easily update the website content include their news blog. BZA also provided the WordPress training for their staff.

As a result of the new website The Hearing Group is experiencing increased traffic to their website due to their improved position in search results for keyword phrases related to their practice.

This computer fitting system helps to ensure that the hearing aid user is receiving the proper amount of amplification from their hearing aids. It is also a great patient educational and counseling tool allowing us to demonstrate the before and after effect of the use of hearing aids on one’s ability to hear speech and environmental sounds.
