“Glenn, Sharon and staff are beyond amazing! My father is 97 and was too weak from dehydration to come in the office. Glenn came to the car, cleaned the wax from Elmer's ear and cleaned and fixed his hearing aids. Elmer went from acting confused to being a very "with it" 97 year old. The hearing aids were life changing. The caring and service are the best!”
