I find it interesting that when you go looking for something you can’t find it, but, when you are not looking wonderful things can show up at your door. Over three years ago Beth, Jane and I decided we needed a patient care coordinator. With the increase in patients we were having a hard time keeping up. So we started …
Have You Heard? April 2021
If you have been reading the past few of my articles in the Senior Savvy, you know we were fortunate to participate in the ReSound Gives Sound program. One of our major hearing aid manufacturers awarded 284 people in the United States with a set of hearing aids who have been financially impacted by the pandemic. Two of our patients …
Here’s To Something Happy In The New Year…
We have all been looking forward to 2021 and here it is. Last year was definitely a year filled with adversity, including natural disasters, financial pressure, and a pandemic resulting in reduced social togetherness. So therefore, it’s more important than ever to lend a hand to those in our community, especially those most impacted by this past year’s challenges. Hearing …
Have You Heard? October 2020
Let me share with you what we hear… “I don’t like wearing a mask, my glasses and hearing aids get stuck”. If we hear it once, we hear it twenty times a day. We do require our patients to wear a face covering when entering the clinic, either a mask or a shield. Jane, Beth, Jamie and I wear shields …
Have You Heard? September 2020
With autumn approaching I can already hear the leaf blowers blowing as the leaves are just beginning to fall. The newspaper inserts are reminding us that hunting season is right around the corner.

Hearing aid leasing solves technology and cost challenges for acquiring hearing devices.

While it might feel like a new concept to some, leasing hearing aids began …

HAVE YOU HEARD? June 2020
We are HEAR for you. Our doors re-opened May 11th. We spent the six weeks at home working on several projects that would have never been completed, had we been busy in the office seeing patients. I am glad we had the time to focus on those projects, but we are glad to be back in the office, seeing each …
HAVE YOU HEARD? May 2020
At the time of this writing, our office has been closed for over 4 weeks. In an effort to protect my staff and our patients, I made the decision to lock our doors and only see patients in emergency situations. We are mailing batteries and supplies to patients so they can stay home as mandated by our governor. So, with …
Have You Heard? April 2020

In our office we like to see our hearing aid patients for annual check-ups which allow us to monitor any hearing changes, review medical issues, review hearing aid programming and function to ensure maximum hearing ability. This type of appointment has also been rescheduled and …
