Stephanie Long
Au.D., CCC-A
Hello. I am Stephanie Long, Doctor of Audiology. I’ve helped people with hearing and hearing loss issues for over 17 years. Over that time, I’ve refined the ways my expertise can best serve my clients. While my practice includes diagnostics and advanced digital hearing aid technology, it’s also important that I listen to you. Knowing you and your listening needs will make the information I give you more relevant. My private practice allows me to take the time for each patient to optimally meet their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you!
I am Nancy D’Agostino. I recently joined About Better Care Audiology as Office Manager. I have my B.A. in Sociology from Northern Illinois University. I worked in National Accounts Sales & Service for a large telecommunications company for 10 years, until I switched careers to become a full time stay at home mom. I have 2 teenagers - Joey and Gina. We relocated to the Fox Cities from Naperville, IL in 2005. Shortly after moving here, my son introduced me to his friend’s mom, Stephanie, and our families have been friends ever since. Not long ago, Stephanie was telling me how she wants to be able to serve more people in the community; how she’d like to do some more public speaking; and how she would like to grow her audiology practice to include not only listening devices but also custom products for musicians, hunters, motorcycle enthusiasts, etc. The reality; however is that there are not enough hours in the day to see patients and do all that’s necessary to accomplish those goals. Having just made the decision to begin looking for a job in customer service, we decided that I need not look any further and my job search was over. In addition to booking appointments and keeping our schedules and files in order, I am working with several hearing aid manufacturers to learn about the newest technology. I will be scheduling open houses and informational seminars that I hope you will attend and I hope you’ll bring your friends as well. I am looking forward to getting to know you.

About Better Care Audiology Review
“I denied my hearing loss for too long because I thought I'd appear old wearing hearing aids at age 53. I wasn't too surprised to realize just how bad it was after I scheduled an exam with Dr. Long in hopes of proving to my wife that my hearing wasn't as bad as she said it was. That was three years ago. Now I think my friends in their fifties appear old when I hear what they cannot. Dr. Long's caring approach made it possible by understanding my "man issue," fitting me with stylish aids and working with me to achieve perfect sound.”
“I have purchased a hearing aid from Doctor Stephanie Long a little over a year ago. She did a very thorough analysis of my hearing issues. She helped me understand what type of aid would best fill my needs. She worked with me as a partner to get my aid to work the way I wanted it to work (I am very demanding). I had an initial problem with my aid and Stephanie really did a great job getting the problem resolved. Then a little over a year later I had some more issues with my aid and she went out of her way to get the aid fixed and even provided me with a substitute aid while the manufacturer was repairing my aid. Stephanie stands behind the products she sells and makes the manufacturer respond to a problem quickly and effectively. This is great service after the sale which will keep me coming back to ABC Audiology in the future.
I have also purchased a hearing aid before from another place recommended by my doctor. I had much better service with ABC Audiology especially service after the sale.
Stephanie is also very easy to talk to about hearing issues and she takes the time to understand my needs and concerns. I would recommend her to anyone with a hearing concern.

“ABC Audiology gives really personalized care that goes beyond the norm. Stephanie's positive attitude, expertise, and understanding of hearing aids and the people who need them, make all the difference. I started with doubts about finding something, and ended up with hearing aids that are perfect for me. The sound is so natural I forget I'm wearing them! There was never any pressure, and she was open to anything I wanted to try.”
“ABC Audiology provided me with a great overview of available options in hearing aids aimed at my needs. Dr. Long was willing to spend all the time that was needed for me to understand and make my choice. We spent multiple sessions tuning the aids to fit my needs and tested them under various conditions. I was quite happy with the results.

“Stephanie is a listener who finds solutions. Her educational background is impressive as is the way she handles the interview, the resolution and the followup.
There is no pressure to buy or to buy the most expensive.
She will refer you to an ENT specialist if she feels you must see one.”
