New Philadelphia Hearing Care for Tuscarawas County Families

New Philadelphia carries a quieter kind of Ohio character. The day may include a stop near Tuscora Park, a drive past Schoenbrunn Village, errands along the Dover corridor, worship, grandparent visits, farm-market conversations, or an appointment close to downtown. In a county-seat community built on familiar faces, missing a name, a soft reply, or a quick instruction can feel surprisingly isolating.

At Choice Hearing Center / Modern Hearing Solutions, our New Philadelphia office at 1304 4th St NW gives Tuscarawas County adults a local place to understand what is happening with their hearing, compare practical treatment choices, and receive follow-through from people who know the area.

This clinic is the heart of it all. Founder, Eric Mounts H.I.S, opened this location in 1994 and quickly built a reputation for unmatched care, honesty, and solutions that addressed the issues his patients had. Today, our goals remain the same; we do not sell devices like so many others. We address the real-world symptoms and issues you have and ultimately, help you hear speech more clearly, manage tinnitus more confidently, and make decisions that address your symptoms, overall health, and budget.

More Than a Quick Check: A Closer Look at How You Listen

Hearing loss rarely announces itself dramatically. It often appears in small frustrations.

Our New Philadelphia clinic connects those everyday struggles to a structured diagnostic picture. We look beyond “Can you hear this tone?” and examine how your hearing loss is affecting your cognition. Your ears are little more than a vessel; we need to understand how your symptoms work physiologically. Our diagnostics go beyond the simple tone test and examine how your brain is receiving and interpreting sound, especially in the context of background noise. This gives you a practical explanation for why certain situations are difficult and what next step makes clinical sense.

Comprehensive Hearing Tests

Diagnostic Testing with Cognitive Listening Insight

A complete hearing evaluation should clarify both audibility and understanding. At Choice Hearing Center / Modern Hearing Solutions, testing may include pure-tone measures, speech testing, comfort checks, and a review of listening demands in real settings.

We also look at how hearing loss affects your cognition using a cognitive screener. Studies have linked untreated hearing loss with cognitive decline and dementia, so we treat listening effort as more than an inconvenience. This does not mean every person with hearing difficulty faces memory disease. It simply means reduced auditory input can add strain, affect participation, and make earlier care worthwhile for long-term quality of life.

Afterward, you receive a recommendation made by a professional to address your symptoms. A treatment plan will be made and agreed with your dedicated clinician.

Tinnitus Evaluations & Treatment

Tinnitus Care for Ringing, Buzzing, Rushing, and Ear Noise

Tinnitus can be hard to explain to someone who has never experienced it. For one person, it is ringing after a long day. For another, it is buzzing, rushing, hissing, pulsing, or a high tone that becomes louder in quiet rooms. It may disturb sleep, reading, prayer, concentration, and patience at home.

Our New Philadelphia team documents your pattern carefully: when it began, whether one side is stronger, what worsens it, and whether hearing loss is part of the same picture. A relief plan may involve sound therapy, hearing aid tinnitus features, protective habits, calming listening routines, or fine-tuning visits. The goal is not a miracle. The goal is steadier control, less intrusion, and a reduction in symptoms.

Professional Hearing Aid Fitting

Hearing Aids Selected for Real Tuscarawas County Residents

Modern day hearing aids can be powerful, but the right choice depends on the person wearing them and their symptoms. We work with respected options from Oticon, Phonak, Starkey, and other trusted manufacturers. The recommendation you receive will consider your diagnostic results, your symptoms, your easier hearing and or reduced tinnitus goals, and overall prognosis. We explain treatment options and prognosis honestly, so the decision feels clear rather than overwhelming.

Premium Hearing Aids:
Featuring Oticon, Phonak, & Other Trusted Brands

Discover premium hearing aids, featuring trusted brands like Oticon and Phonak. Our team of experts will guide you to the perfect style, from rechargeable to invisible devices, tailored to your unique hearing needs and treatment goals and prognosis.

Real-Ear Measurement and Live Speech Mapping

A hearing aid should not merely raise volume. It should make hearing easier. At our 4th Street NW office, real-ear measurement and live speech mapping allow us to verify how amplification performs in your ear canal.

That precision helps prevent common problems such as sharp sound, muffled words, background-noise overload, or settings that feel unnatural. We also teach insertion, removal, charging, storage, cleaning, and maintenance so you can handle your devices with confidence outside the clinic.

I am so grateful to Modern hearing solutions for testing, matching, and fitting me with the amazing aids I wear. I am so happy to not miss a word at church, in a restaurant, while using my phone, and while enjoying tv. They are as important to me as wearing my glasses. Three years ago when I started using them, there was no trial period necessary for me. They have been amazing since day one. And I especially appreciate stopping in any time to have them cleaned. Dr Nash made everything so easy and clear for me. I am extremely grateful to all of her staff.

Hello Modern Hearing Solutions team. Thank you so much. My husband is a patient of yours and travels constantly, and on a recent trip his Lyric suddenly went out while he was in Fort Lewis, Washington. One quick phone call later, your team pulled together and somehow got a replacement overnighted to him so he could stay effective at work.

I really appreciate how quickly you acted and I was honestly surprised (and impressed) that you just dropped the Lyric straight in the mail to him yourselves. He’s always spoken very highly of everyone at Modern Hearing Solutions, which, coming from him, is not praise he gives lightly. Now I fully understand why. Thank you again for taking such great care of him.

Always Excellent Service! This review is long overdue and I certainly should have written Modern Hearing Solutions at the Five Star level on several past visits. I have never been more satisfied and pleased with the level of attention to customer needs the Canton office routinely provides. The most recent example being my current trip to Disney with my eight year old and a “washout” hearing aid loss at the Typhoon Lagoon - I typically travel with a spare for just such events; however, family vacation didn’t warrant the additional thought I’d put into work trips in my past. Lesson Learned. *I wear the Lyric IIC Hearing Aid

Upon calling Modern Hearing Solutions at close of business Thursday , 04 DEC I was immediately taken care of and redirected to a local office in Orlando where I could get a replacement while traveling. I also scheduled a first available appointment for my return Monday 08 DEC. *This appointment is primarily to personally thank all the folks at the Canton office for their immediate assistance and personal attention they never fail to provide.

Thank you Modern Hearing Solutions Canton Office!
I was made to feel comfortable and welcome from the first moment I arrived. A significant moment in my life was turned into a relaxed experience. As a healthcare professional I learned about newer technology that just made sense. Grateful for the experience I had. I highly recommend these folks.

Making an appointment was quick and informative. The appointment itself was wonderful. Started at my scheduled time. Dr Smith was delightful and I learned so much from her. Was not overly surprised at how much hearing loss I already had but to see it on paper was definitely eye-opening. I was so excited to be able to leave my first appointment with my new hearing aids to test out, and then to be able to go back in a week for any needed adjustments is a testament to such great service. I hope more people my age take the leap (I’m 57) and at least go for the consultation. It’s not cheap but it’s such an important investment in quality of life. I only wish I had gone sooner. Goodbye subtitles and choosing restaurants that are “easy-to-hear” type of places. Hello freedom!

Rehabilitation and Follow-Up Near Home

Easier hearing is an adjustment process. The brain needs time to interpret restored auditory detail, and devices need periodic care. Our team remains available for cleanings, troubleshooting, wax-filter replacement, programming updates, app assistance, and progress checks.

Local follow-up matters. Whether your week includes Tuscora Park activities, church gatherings, family dinners, county fairgrounds visits, medical appointments, Amish Country drives, or work around Tuscarawas County, your devices should be precise for the environments you enter.

Serving New Philadelphia, Dover, and Nearby Communities

Our office serves New Philadelphia, Dover, Uhrichsville, Dennison, Strasburg, Sugarcreek, Newcomerstown, Bolivar, Stone Creek, Gnadenhutten, Port Washington, and nearby Tuscarawas County areas.

If you are missing soft voices, turning closed captions more often, withdrawing from noisy gatherings, or dealing with persistent ear noise, this is a good time to get answers and solutions. Choice Hearing Center / Modern Hearing Solutions provides diagnostic care, tinnitus support, personalized hearing aid fitting, auditory rehabilitation, and local follow-up care for clearer, easier, safer, and more confident living in New Philadelphia.

FAQ'S

How do I know if it’s time to schedule a hearing test?

You should schedule a hearing test if you frequently ask people to repeat themselves, turn the TV volume up higher than others prefer, or feel exhausted after socializing. We at Modern Hearing Solutions recommend a baseline hearing evaluation every year to monitor natural, age-related changes in your hearing profile.

Why can I hear people talking, but I can't understand the words?

Hearing sound but lacking clarity is the most common symptom of age-related hearing loss (presbycusis). You are likely losing high-frequency sounds, like the consonants s, f, th, and sh, which provide the clarity in human speech. Our advanced hearing solutions are specifically programmed to isolate and amplify these high-frequency speech cues, making conversations clear again.

Is it normal to struggle to hear in noisy restaurants?

Yes. Background noise combined with high-frequency hearing loss makes it incredibly difficult for your brain to separate speech from surrounding clatter. Modern Hearing Solutions utilizes directional microphones and AI-driven background noise reduction to focus on the person sitting across from you while softening the noise around you.

Do your hearing specialists treat ringing in the ears (tinnitus)?

Yes, we provide specialized management for tinnitus. Ringing, buzzing, or hissing in the ears often goes hand-in-hand with hearing loss. Many of our premium hearing devices feature built-in tinnitus masking technology that plays soothing, customized sounds to help your brain ignore the ringing.

What is the best type of hearing aid for older adults?

The “best” device depends entirely on your specific hearing loss, dexterity, and lifestyle. However, Receiver-In-Canal (RIC) models are currently the most popular choice because they are discreet, comfortable, and pack the most advanced speech-enhancement technology without feeling plugged up.
