Your Family From frustration at repeating things over and over to sadness at seeing you isolate yourself from the people and activities you love, your family suffers the consequences of your hearing loss also. Your Safety A car horn. An ambulance siren. The fire alarm. Hearing loss can cause you to miss important signals that alert you to danger - and put those you care about at risk.
Your Happiness What things aren't you doing, enjoying or experiencing because you can't hear to your full potential? Hearing loss isn't just a nuisance - it's a quality of life issue. Your Work If you're missing important information on phone calls or in meetings, you may be missing opportunities to grow and increase your value to employers.

Hearing by Design is a brand new hearing aid center with a combination of a native South Carolinian and a Northerner that decided to move to the sunny south! Both Kayla Bracey and Jennifer Reed have worked in the Myrtle Beach/North Myrtle Beach area for the past 8 years. Kayla began working for a local family owned hearing aid center many years ago and transitioned to a corporate setting after the business was sold in 2010.
As a hearing professional, I always find that I am noticing people wearing aids in public situations, such as at sporting events or the airport. Mostly, because it's my profession, but also because hearing aids of the past have been so big and noticeable, and I put great emphasis on the word PAST. With today's latest hearing aids, many new options are available that are invisible* to the eye when worn.
Having a hearing loss is not something that anyone gets excited about. However, with the right attitude and approach, it can actually be a very manageable condition to care for. In my years of caring for those with hearing loss, I have seen time and time again people make remarkable improvements by simply dedicating themselves to getting the most out of wearing a hearing aid.
Buying a hearing aid is an important decision on many levels as it is an investment in both money and time. However, the benefits one can gain from improved hearing will outweigh those investments on a daily basis. Therefore it is important to take the right approach in shopping for a hearing aid to ensure you or a loved one get the optimal solution for improving hearing capabilities.

Awesome! Great! The best of the best! My wife was becoming removed from day to day conversations! We went to HBD, scheduled a hearing test - Kayla made a recommendation - WOW! What a difference. My wife is engaged, happy, and she is much sharper in general. Now she can hear everything (hmmmm....is that a good think?? LOL)! The HBD team is awesome, caring and very professional. No scams here! We have and will continue to send friends & colleagues to HBD - totally trustworthy! I agree, don't walk - run to HBD!! God Bless you folks!

For a new business in the area, these ladies don't stand a chance after the rudeness and lies that I've put up with. I would suggest any other audiologist in the area. It doesn't matter who. I'm sure they give better treatment and service than the unprofessional "doctors" in charge at the 13th Ave location in NMB. Avoid like the plague.
