The Atlanta Hearing Doctor's "Pink with a Purpose" Program Supports Hearing Health and Breast Cancer Research

    ATLANTA, GA, September 14, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Breast cancer strikes one in eight people in the US. Everyone knows someone - a mother, daughter, sister, grandmother or friends who has endured this terrible disease. Dr. Maria Wynens, the Atlanta Hearing Doctor in Atlanta, Georgia has found a way to combine her commitment to improve the hearing health of people in Atlanta and her determination to help find a cure for breast cancer.

In October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Dr. Wynens will participate in the national "Pink with a Purpose" campaign to help raise funds for breast cancer research. Throughout October, leading hearing care manufacturer Oticon will donate a portion of proceeds from the sale of a special Think Pink Agil and all other Agil hearing devices to the National Breast Cancer Coalition.

Agil preserves natural speech cues without compromising sound quality and speech understanding so less energy is needed to translate and interpret the meaning of sounds. By minimizing the cognitive energy expended in typical listening situations, Agil empowers people with hearing loss to communicate freely, interact naturally and participate actively in everyday life.

"With the addition of the Streamer remote control and the ConnectLine system, Agil can connect wirelessly to TVs, cell and landline phones and other popular communication devices," states the Atlanta Hearing Doctor.

Special edition Think Pink Agil is available in a mini behind-the-ear device that is almost invisible on the ear. Dr. Wynens notes that the Agil family of hearing instruments can accommodate approximately 80 percent of hearing losses.

For more information on hearing loss and the Think Pink Agil, contact the Atlanta Hearing Doctor at 404-252-7528 or visit www.atlantahearingdoctor.com
