A hearing instrument may comprise a housing that defines a cavity, wherein the housing includes an inner side that is formed to conform with user anatomy, an outer side that is externally visible when the hearing instrument is placed within an ear of a user. The hearing instrument may further comprise circuitry disposed inside the cavity, wherein the circuitry includes an antenna disposed adjacent an inner surface of the outer side of the housing. A battery door may be attached to the housing, wherein the battery door is positioned such that a battery can be inserted and removed via the battery door, wherein upon insertion of the battery into the hearing instrument, the battery is disposed behind the antenna relative to the outer side of the housing.
