“Very thorough. Did a great job of explaining everything. Also very friendly. I was pleased. ”
“I needed help with my Signia hearing aids while traveling in NC from Illinois. I could not get it for help with my guy at home before I left on a trip. Richard squeezed me in, diagnosed the problem, fixed the device under warranty, helped me download a better hearing ap for my phone, and trained me on how to use it. -- Way better than my guy at home. If I lived here, I'd use this place going forward. Top notch service and caring.”
“Excellent service.”
