In my opinion, you should not wait for COVID-19 to end, instead, you should GO ONLINE.
Here is what can be done:
1. You can get an online consultation platform build using ready-made software solutions like Yo!Coach (https://www.fatbit.com/online-learning-consultation-marketplace-platform.html)
2. You can add the details for all of your hearing aid clinics. So that people can search for the nearest one.
3. You can integrate the video chat feature so that the patient can directly connect with the healthcare personnel and share the concerns online.
4. Based on the seriousness of the condition of the patient, you can provide the time slots for visiting the centre. The scheduling/appointment feature will play a very important role here because you will be providing slots in such a way so that only a limited number of patients arrive at the clinic at a given point of time. It will help you maintaining social distancing norms. Additionally, the patient can also choose the slot as per their convenience.
5. By building an online consultation platform/mobile app you do not have to wait for COVID-19 to end, you can resume your work even now.
6. Additionally, through the online consultation platform/mobile app you can add more sources of revenues like banner ads, minimal charges for online consultancy, etc.

Hi Ankur,
That's a great question, obviously it is difficult to find a quick answer.
#1 - In the next 12 months, how much growth (in terms of revenue) do you think can be achieved over next 12 months?
#2 - Why do you think, you can see this growth? What's your unique value proposition and why do you think consumers would prefer your service?
#3 - If you have a strong reasoning for #2, then it is time for looking for options to grow your business.
#4 - India being a culturally and linguistically diverse country, you need a good local presence or work with good local partner to reach your target audiences. For instance, you should know the demand and pain-points of the local people.
