Rediscover the Sounds of Life with Armaj Ali, the Audiologist Who Revolutionised Hearing Aid Fitting
At BestHear, we believe the gift of hearing deserves exceptional care. That’s why we’re led by Armaj Ali, a renowned audiologist whose passion for helping people hear transcended limitations to develop a revolutionary hearing aid fitting method.
From Aspiring Clinician to Audiology Trailblazer
Armaj’s journey began with academic excellence, as he graduated with honors in Hearing and Balance Studies from the University of Bristol. Driven by a desire to make a difference, he honed his skills across various NHS adult and pediatric audiology positions. His early experiences shaped him into a compassionate and adaptable clinician adept at handling complex cases.

A Calling to Ireland and the Birth of Innovative Techniques
Armaj’s dedication to his craft led him to a unique opportunity – joining the first-ever newborn hearing screening program in Cork City, Ireland. Here, he encountered a diverse range of patients, including children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This experience not only expanded his knowledge but also sparked a passion for developing strategies to address specific needs.
Mastering the Field and Pushing Boundaries
Never content with the status quo, Armaj furthered his education with a Master’s degree in Advanced Clinical Audiology. His dissertation project led to the creation of the “Hearing Test Story” – an innovative tool designed to test children with ASD. This pioneering work cemented his reputation as a skilled pediatric audiologist.

From London to Medina: Building Expertise and Encountering a Challenge
Armaj’s dedication to his craft led him to diverse roles across London’s NHS hospitals, where he worked with both adult and pediatric patients. He even honed his skills with the prestigious Cochlear Implant Team at Great Ormond Street Hospital. In 2015, he embarked on a new adventure – establishing comprehensive audiology services for a newly built National Guard hospital in Medina.

The Spark of Genius: Necessity Breeds Innovation
While setting up the hearing aid service, Armaj faced a critical obstacle – the hospital lacked a Real Ear Measurement (REM) machine, an essential tool for calibrating digital hearing aids. Refusing to let this limitation hinder his patients, Armaj devised a unique solution.
He developed a system based on meticulous subjective sound checks, relying on patient feedback to optimize hearing aid performance. Despite initial concerns about accuracy without an REM, Armaj observed consistently positive outcomes.

A Return Home and the HEAREKA Moment
His family beckoned Armaj back to the UK in 2019. Now with access to an REM machine again, he combined his subjective method with the scientific precision of REM data. The results were astonishing. Patients consistently reported exceptional hearing experiences, surpassing outcomes achieved through traditional methods.
Excited by this breakthrough, Armaj streamlined his process into a focused 1.5-hour appointment, guaranteeing optimal results. He christened this revolutionary method the HEAREKA MOMENT.
BestHear: Where Innovation Meets Personalised Care
Today, Armaj brings the HEAREKA MOMENT to the private sector with BestHear. We are dedicated to providing comprehensive hearing care, ensuring every patient rediscovers the joy of clear, natural hearing.
