Products
California Hearing Center offers a full range of hearing technology and protective products at our San Mateo and San Carlos offices. No two ears are alike, which is why every solution we recommend is individualized and customized to the person in front of us, whether the goal is clearer hearing, tinnitus sound therapy, or protecting healthy ears from noise.
Our products fall into two families: hearing aids and Ear Gear. On the hearing aid side we work independently across the major manufacturers rather than pushing a single brand, we carry products to fit every budget, and we can arrange a risk-free trial so you experience devices in the real world before deciding. On the protection side we make custom earplugs and earmolds for work, music, swimming, sleeping, and more.
Whatever your needs, the starting point is a conversation and a hearing test. From there we match technology to your hearing profile, dexterity, visual abilities, budget, and cosmetic preferences.
At a glance
- Two product families: hearing aids from every major brand, and custom hearing protection.
- Recommendations are individualized and verified with real-ear measurement, not one-size-fits-all.
- Risk-free trials let you experience hearing aids in the real world before you decide.
Hearing aids for every profile
We fit devices from all the leading brands and base each recommendation on your personal hearing profile, style preferences, manual dexterity, visual abilities, and cosmetic goals. Because we carry products across price points, we can fit nearly every budget.
Hearing aids that work like the brain hears
Hearing clearly involves more than making sounds louder. The ear, hearing nerve, and brain work together to form a full soundscape from dynamic, constantly changing sound. Today's technology, including AI-driven devices, is designed to handle that complexity so you hear more naturally wherever you are.
Hearing protection and Ear Gear
Beyond amplification, we make custom-molded earplugs and earmolds that guard against irreversible noise damage. Options include musician earplugs, in-ear monitors, and molds for pilot headsets, swimming, sleeping, and hunting. See our hearing protection options.
Independent, brand-agnostic advice
We are not tied to one manufacturer. That freedom lets us compare platforms honestly and choose the one that genuinely fits you, rather than the one a single supplier wants us to sell. Browse our hearing aid brands.
Fitted and verified, not just sold
A product is only as good as its programming. We use real-ear measurement during the fitting to confirm each device delivers the right output across pitches for your specific ears.
Support for tinnitus, too
Many patients come to us not only for hearing loss but for tinnitus relief. Several of the devices we carry double as sound therapy tools, and we tailor them as part of a broader tinnitus care plan.
Serving the Peninsula
We are proud to see patients throughout San Mateo, San Carlos, Burlingame, Belmont, and Millbrae. Both offices offer the same technology and the same personalized approach.
Frequently asked questions
Questions patients ask us
What products does California Hearing Center offer?
Two main categories: hearing aids from all the major manufacturers, and custom hearing protection (Ear Gear) such as musician earplugs, in-ear monitors, and molds for swimming, sleeping, and pilot headsets. We also provide tinnitus sound therapy solutions.

Yes. We can arrange a risk-free trial so you can experience a set of hearing aids in your own daily life and hear the difference for yourself before making a commitment.
How do you decide which product is right for me?
We start with a hearing test and a discussion of your goals, then weigh your hearing profile, dexterity, vision, budget, and cosmetic preferences to match you with the right technology, and verify the fit with real-ear measurement.
