“I came to see Dr Fike for help in managing my Tinnitus. I no longer slept through the night and had such distraction during the day, it was maddening at times. My wife was also frustrated not being able to relieve my pain. After a full exam, Dr. Fike provided a solution. Sound therapy. We were desperate for any kind of help, so I went home and tried it. It's been several nights since my visit, and I'm delighted to say that I am now sleeping all night and have less detraction during the day. I can't say enough about Dr. Fike's professionalism and easy manner in which he helped me. It was worth the three hour trip. ”
