Don't go to the Saugatuck Center for the Arts production of Once the Musical for the 8 Tony awards or the Oscars the movie won. Go because there is amazing energy and magic that will draw you in, bringing you onstage and caring deeply about the characters <3. We are especially proud to sponsor this great production, one that will stay with you, move and entertain you. Irish Guy (with broken heart and guitar) meets Czech Girl (with broken Hoover and piano) in a modern love story that develops with beautiful music and mesmerizing choreography. Experience boundless talent onstage with musicians switching between cello, violin, guitar, mandolin, piano, accordion and more instruments. The stage set and lighting will impress you. The a cappella song in act-2 will blow you away. Sound is 'just right' and not too loud; leave your earplugs at home 🙂 A loop system is available to give you clearer speech, so you can put your aids in T-Coil. Contact us if you have hearing questions and Enjoy the Show! ***HINT 1: Get your tickets now; as with past productions, this one will also sell out. *** HINT 2: Go early because there is a "pre-show" and it's amazing!
"Falling Slowly"
I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
The Cochlea, the end-organ of hearing in the inner ear, is a word that comes from the Greek word for snail ("Κοχλίας", kōhlias) due to its snail like shape.
See the 'snail' inspiration in the logo of, top Cochlear Implant manufacturer, Cochlear Americas ? 😉
Trivia: "Archimedes' Cochlea" does not refer to the ancient Greek mathematician/inventor's inner ear 😀 It's his 3rd Century BC screw-shaped invention that provides mechanical pumping of water to higher elevations, using a helical shape rotating on a shaft inside a hollow pipe.

Better sleep? Masking? Hear less snoring? 😉 The new Bose SleepBuds promise quite a bit and were intrigued! We regularly have requests for earplugs for sleeping and stock over a dozen different types to fit all 95% of ears! (The other 5% require custom-made plugs.) We also use "masking" devices that produce different sounds to help with ambient noise and to reduce perception of tinnitus. Could these also work for tinnitus? Dr. D has been experimenting with them for over a month and we will be sharing his findings soon. Until then, let us know: do you think Bose is onto something? Do you want better/quieter sleep? What are you using now?

Did you know that one of the best "loop" equipment manufacturers is right here in Holland, Michigan? Contacta, Inc. makes some of our favorite loop drivers and Dr. D recently attended a seminar to learn about their newest products and advanced installation designs. Hearing Loops provide clear sound with a technology that is universal: all hearing aids that can connect using their internal 't-coil'. Beyond use in churches, theaters, and other large areas, Loops can be helpful in one-to-one applications: teller windows, checkout counters, and more. *** Is there a local business or facility where you would like to hear better?

Our Doctors are happy to help with your wax and plastic grommet(!) removal needs 😀 Please don't use q-tips, as you can push wax deeper and may cause impactions, damage to the skin and/or eardrum. This patient felt intense pain when he used a swab to 'clean' his ear; he had no idea where the grommet came from but had pushed it deep in his ear canal. It was stuck with wax against his eardrum 😱 Maybe a broken off part of headphones? Any ideas?

Holland Doctors of Audiology is at Saugatuck Center for the Arts.
Dixie's Never Wear a Tube Top While Riding a Mechanical Bull is raunchy, hilarious and inspiring show that blew us away. We are excited to sponsor this Saugatuck Center for the Arts show and, if you have hearing aids, MAKE SURE you use the Loop System. With some shows it's optional but, to keep up with Dixie Longate's fast talking, you will NEED the clear speech provided by the Loop 😁 so make sure you switch to T-Coil. Be advised that the show is for "mature" audiences 😳. Be prepared to 😂🤣😂🤣. You will be surprised by the emotional "life affirming" moments👏👏👏 💕. If you're in the first row, also be prepared to be part of the show 🤭 As with past shows, we expect that Dixie's will be SOLD OUT soon, so get your tickets now.
