It can be daunting when shopping for a new hearing aid. There are a plethora of online and physical hearing aid stores that can be overwhelming when it comes to making a purchasing decision. We have put together this comprehensive guide on hearing aid stores to help you in your decision-making.

Hearing aid stores

Hearing aids have been available over-the-counter (OTC) since October 2022, and since then, it seems like every major retailer now stocks OTC hearing aids, whether online or in a physical location. Depending on the hearing aid brand, you might even need to book an appointment with an in-store staff member to purchase a hearing aid.

In this comprehensive guide, we take a look at the major outlets where you can purchase an OTC hearing aid, including Go Hearing devices.

Walmart

Walmart is one of the largest chains of retail stores across the country, with over 10,500 stores worldwide. Walmart operates a variety of different stores, including hypermarkets, discount stores, and grocery stores.

Walmart offers the full range of Go Hearing aids, which you can view here. You can visit your nearest Walmart to purchase your OTC hearing aids in-store or shop online and have them delivered straight to your door.

CVS

CVS is one of the largest pharmacy chains in the United States, with over 10,000 locations across the country. Originally known as Consumer Value Store, CVS has become a staple for millions of Americans to purchase over-the-counter (OTC) medications.

CVS offers the full range of Go Hearing OTC hearing aids. CVS also carries OTC hearing aids in-store, so you can visit the pharmacist at your nearest CVS store to purchase your OTC hearing aids, or you can purchase them online and have them delivered directly to your door.

Best Buy

Best Buy is another family-favorite multinational retail chain store that offers almost anything you could think of. Despite being a household name, it only operates about 1,100 stores across the U.S., but it has become one of the most prominent retailers.

Best Buy offers the full range of Go Hearing aids, which you can view here. As with Walmart and CVS, you can visit your nearest store to pick up your next set of OTC hearing aids, or you can purchase them online from the convenience of your home.

Amazon

Once a simple store selling used books, Amazon has become the global leader in online sales and sells almost everything you could imagine. With the added convenience of being able to shop almost anywhere across the globe and have it shipped worldwide, it is no wonder that Amazon has become the largest e-commerce platform.

Amazon offers the full range of Go Hearing aids, which you can view here. Since Amazon is an online-only platform, there is no physical store for you to visit, so you will need to purchase online.

NowOptics

Optical chain NowOptics is the first in the optical industry to offer OTC hearing aids, as part of a holistic approach to well-being. NowOptics is one of the nation’s fastest-growing eye and vision care companies, supporting two brands: StantonOptical and My EyeLab.

Both of these brands carry the range of Go Hearing OTC hearing aids, which you can purchase by visiting your nearest branch or shopping online for home delivery. The benefit of NowOptics is that if you suffer from both vision and hearing issues, you can visit one shop for added convenience.

In summary

Since the launch of OTC hearing aids in October 2022, accessibility to hearing healthcare products has increased drastically. Excitingly, this means that if you suffer from hearing loss, there has never been a better or more convenient time to get yourself a pair of OTC hearing aids from a range of hearing aid stores, whether at a physical location or online from the comfort of your home.
