“My experience with Adept Audiology has been an on-going positive experience. I have received a genuine caring treatment from everyone and feel they treat me as a friend and family. They as their theme states " We take hearing to heart" is what they truly do.
I would highly recommend you visit them and see the latest technology and return to hearing what you really have been missing.”

“Being new to the Bradenton area and needing hearing aid repairs I was extremely happy to find a doctor and staff that responded quickly to my needs. They were knowledgeable and my repairs were made quickly. A very professional and friendly staff. Will return for all my hearing needs.

“A corrective experience. My last audiologist clearly hated her job and made me hate the whole experience and reluctant to see another one. Lyndsey is very knowledgeable, great sense of humor, works well with a reluctant client and completely won me over. Oh, and my Oticom's are updated with much more refined and nuance settings.”

“Dr. Nalu was very through and professional. Her office staff was very friendly and able to answer questions as well. I went for a Va. hearing test. Thank you Dr Nalu.”

“I can say only good things about the service I've received from Dr. Nalu and her staff. They are extremely professional, caring and competent. Doctor and staff spend all the time one needs to answer questions and solve any problems that may arise. I look at little things with a critical eye since I was a practicing physician in another profession and ran multiple offices for over 40 years. As a first time wearer, the hearing aids I purchased are of excellent quality and have been easy to adjust to under various sound environments. Pricing was less than I expected for the quality of the hardware and the exceptional service provided. ”

“Oh, my goodness. Talk about friendly service with a smile. Adept Audiology is the place to go. I just went in to pick up some wax guards and Eve was awesome. She had them in stock (at a good price), cleaned my aids and even changed the battery doors. Whenever I am in Lakewood Ranch I know where I will go from now on for hearing aid support.

“Very Professional Front Office Audiology Assistant. Great Team Environment. Doctor helped with my very stubborn father, who should have wore hearing aids for the past 10 years. Her Prices were better than the Clinics in the surrounding area. She had the bedside manners of an angel. Dad can now hear, this has saved my mom and dad's marriage, and they are Both much happier and all us kids have so much faith in Dr. Lyndsey Nalu and her Audiology Assistant Eve”

“My Insurance recommended Lyndsey Nalu of Adept Audiology when I called them for a referral. Lyndsey conducted an in depth interview and got to know me well before proceeding to a thorough testing. Finally she offered me several choices at half the prices of my doctor recommended audiologist and also advised me where I might comparison shop to check out her recommendations. Lyndsey is committed to customer satisfaction, knowledgeable about the pros and cons of each approach, and patient during encounters. She wants to make certain that every question is thoroughly answered and the patient's needs are met. I highly recommend her for her professionalism and caring. My primary care physician had previously recommended another audiologist who turned out to be nothing but a hearing aid saleswoman who was perfunctory in her interview, limited in her testing, and expensive in her quotation. I'm happy that I looked further and found Adept Audiology.”

“After being frustrated with asking people to repeat what they said to me, by these same people responding "never mind," I finally decided to find out if it was them or me. Made an appointment with Adept Audiology, and it was the best decision I made. Dr. Lyndsey and her assistant Eve were professional, patient with all my questions and extremely kind. They are a family owned business and treat you like family. If you are not sure, like I was, I feel you will be happy when you give them a call.”
