Clear information starts with clear sources.

14276 real centre records. 35 European countries. A useful starting sample, with no claim of complete coverage.

Where the records come from

484 entries come from OpenStreetMap objects tagged as hearing-aid shops. We kept named entries with a source-provided street and city inside the selected markets. Country assignment uses coordinates and public geographic boundaries. Other records come from official clinic websites and public directories. Each profile identifies its sources.

• OpenStreetMap contributors and ODbL licence
• Audika Denmark: official location directory
• Audika Sweden: official location directory
• Geographic boundaries: Natural Earth / geo-countries

What “retrieved” means

26 September 2026 is our retrieval date, not a promise that each source was updated that day. We have not contacted the listed centres. Telephone numbers, opening times, prices, availability and services can change. Contact the centre before visiting.

Inclusion and deduplication

Profiles require a business name, street, city and source link. Source duplicates sharing a normalized provider, street and city are removed. Copenhagen postal districts are grouped under København while the original postal locality is retained on the profile. No missing phone numbers, coordinates, photos, opening times, services, ratings or appointment slots are invented.

Coverage and limitations

Coverage combines provider research and OpenStreetMap where available. Country and city samples remain incomplete. Low record counts are not evidence of few hearing centres in a country.

Customer reviews

Only recent ratings matched to the specific branch contribute. Chain-wide ratings are excluded. Missing ratings are not zero-star ratings.

Each source counts equally, including Audivello reviews when available. People may review on more than one platform.

Each platform calculates its own score. This is not a clinical-quality assessment.

Commercial and verification status

No payment affects the order of profiles. A confirmation badge identifies a profile marked as confirmed by the centre. No paid placement or clinical endorsement is implied by a listing.

Data reuse

The downloadable OpenStreetMap-derived subset is available under ODbL 1.0 with attribution to OpenStreetMap contributors. Provider-sourced factual records are separately identified; no blanket licence over provider content is asserted. Marketing copy and provider photographs were not imported.

Editorial and imagery

Hearing articles show their sources and provide general information, not personal medical advice. The homepage photograph is AI-generated brand imagery. City scenes are original illustrations. Neither is presented as a listed clinic, its staff or a patient testimonial.
