Eric Mounts
I’ve been in the hearing health industry for 30 years and have devoted my career to helping solve the problems of daily life caused by hearing loss.
First, as a technician, I attained the fundamental knowledge of hearing aid technology and practical skills from seeing how technology provides a better hearing experience if fit properly. I learned how variances in technology, testing, and fitting techniques impact success in hearing loss treatment and overall patient satisfaction. Because I was distressed by the level of patient care and attention available in our industry, I opened our first hearing center in 1994, for the sole purpose of focusing on our patient’s needs first. I have been doing that ever since, and I lead my team of professionals with this objective each day.
Hearing loss has a profound (negative) impact on those afflicted, but also on their loved ones. It touches every facet of life, health, mental well-being, and every interaction and relationship. Effective and professional treatment can profoundly change this.
In every interaction, we start by focusing on how to improve lives with better hearing. With solutions, not sales. We start by listening — to patients and to their loved ones. Our work and our success are based on what we learn from this process and our unique capability to provide the most diverse set of solutions available. Sometimes that means fixing a poorly fit hearing aid. Sometimes it means introducing our patient to the world of better hearing and options to achieve it.
We only fit the latest technology and the best products available anywhere in the world. We provide unsurpassed care (and caring). Because we are independent (not a franchise), we can offer the best solution or product to fit a patient’s needs, loss, lifestyle, and budget. With our low price guarantee and financing options, the barriers to treatment are eliminated. Our five full-time offices, our philosophy, and dedication to continuous training and education make us the premier provider in the area.

“My mom was visiting from out of town and a wire broke on her hearing aid. We found out Choice Hearing carried her brand of hearing aid. Even though we weren't customers of theirs, they fixed her hearing aid, cleaned them and gave us information on them that she'd not been told before. It took just minutes for them to have her hearing again! ”
“The best hearing service in the area. Very friendly staff.”
“Great service and support.”
“We are so pleased with our hearing aids and with the staff! Ella was super!”
“I have been to the Wadsworth office and most recently the New Philadelphia office. Both offices are great - very friendly and informative helped me to pick a hearing aid that was right for me and they are great when you need adjustments also. I would recommend to family and friends who need help. ”
