About Us

We are a total hearing health care center, providing complete hearing evaluative services as well as state of the art hearing instruments and other assistive listening devices. An extensive listing of the wide range of products and services which we provide appears at the end of this section.

Our practice is very patient orientated. We spend considerable time with patients and their families explaining what test results mean and how hearing loss impacts quality of life. We also spend time listening to patient and/or family concerns regarding the hearing loss. This enables us to then make the most appropriate recommendations.

Another benefit to our patients is our association with two well respected otolaryngologists (ear, nose and throat physicians). We have shared office space and have worked together for more than twenty years. Dr. Nikhil Bhatt heads this group of doctors and has truly a world renowned reputation for knowledge of this field as well as his surgical expertise. Having physicians of this caliber in the same office is invaluable to all our patients.

When a hearing aid is indicated, patients can be confident that we will select or help them to select the very best instrument available, taking numerous factors into consideration. Factors such as type and degree of hearing loss, instrument circuit technology and cost, instrument size and appearance, etc. are all important. We work only with the very best companies in the hearing aid industry and have good personal working relationships with several.

Todays hearing instruments are considerably more advanced than ones manufactured only a few years ago. We regularly attend industry courses and workshops to insure that the services and products which we provide are truly on the cutting edge of technology. All hearing aids are provided with full trial periods, including complete programming and unlimited number of follow-up appointments as needed.
