“Such great care, as well as knowledge about hearing loss and help for it! I met Dr. Leslie Gant a dozen years or so ago by taking two different friends to her for hearing aids. They both spoke highly of her so that when I needed a hearing evaluation, Dr. Gant was my choice of doctors to see. She takes time with you, listens to you and works with you to get better hearing. Going to Mountain Ear in Waynesville for hearing assistance has been very beneficial.”
