“DR. Fike always takes his time to answer all questions, be attentive, go above & beyond in trying his best to always help figure out how to improve the pt quality of life thru audiology. He is attentive, polite, comprehensive, helpful, personable. He helped us set up Sound Therapy on the mobile phone ( since we knew nothing about that technology). We are grateful for his expertise & look forward to him helping us further obtain quality hearing. He is punctual & considerate. His office is clean & professional. The new year will bring a new insurance co for us & he is going to help us use our options wisely to assist further with hearing improvement & tinnitus improvement.
