Learn how to prevent hearing aid damage due to cold, wet winter weather, and how to troubleshoot problems if they arise. Plus, how to protect your ears and why tinnitus is more common when it's cold.
Hearing loss in one ear and single-sided deafness can affect your hearing in unique ways, primarily because it's harder to localize where sounds are coming from.
Craig Van Doorne, Board Certified in Hearing Instruments, joined us in January 2011 as a licensed hearing instrument specialist. He also has credentials as an Audiology Assistant from Nova Southeastern University and has completed his distance learning for hearing health sciences from International Hearing Society. He brings to us a unique ability to troubleshoot hearing instruments and is a strong supporter of loop technology. His knowledge of the best practice protocol of real ear testing allows accurate first fittings. His understanding of how hearing loss affects lives comes through in his counseling not only to new users but to previous users but new to our practice.

“Craig was efficient and effective. I now have a resupply of batteries and a next appointment in April. The initial payment covers several years, so it's nice not to have to pay for each and every visit.”

“I love this clinic and my usual audiologist, Dr Konig. She was unable to be in, I was 10 minutes late (road construction), and the person I saw was minimally engaging (only quickly looked at my ears and instructed the receptionist to give me new batteries. He also made an odd comment, which I found troubling.”

“Dr. Koning really shows she cares for her patients. I am getting high quality service from Van Doorne Hearing. Of equal importance is the pricing. I can't emphasize how important it is to shop for your hearing device. The difference between my lowest quote and highest was 100%! I am counting only local audiologists. I called three in the area and asked they quote a specific device. Van Doorne Hearing provided the best value of price and packaged services. ”

“What could be better than a family owned and operated hearing clinic that will properly evaluate, fit and follow you on your journey to improved relationships with family, friends, and co-workers? Dr. Karen, her son Craig, his wife Sarah, and most recently, Dr. Macenzie have successfully guided me for nearly five years. The treatment they continue to provide makes a major difference in my ability to enjoy solid relationships with those I love, those I interact with both at work and socially. Life is so much better in a hearing clearly world. ”

“Thirteen years ago I was finally ready for hearing aids after many years of denial. I went to VanDoorne Hearing Care and was fitted with two hearing aids. This opened up new worlds in hearing for me. VanDoorne Hearing Care has continued to give me the professional service and followup I needed for these many years. Recently I was fitted with two new hearing aids with many new features. I now have a T-Coil receiver that allows me to hear better in spaces with an installed T-Coil loop. I am very appreciative of the many years of service that VanDoorne Hearing Care has provided for me. I would recommend them to anyone with questions about or need for better hearing.”

“I decided to work with the Van Doorne Hearing Care group after hearing a presentation on hearing and technology that they sponsored at Hope College. I was introduced to Dr. Macenzie Koning and received thoughtful, caring and very professional advise and testing. I purchased my new hearing aids from Van Doorne after a two week trial and I am most pleased with the entire experience. Quality patient care and follow up is a high priority. If you are looking for new technology and professional support, give them a try!”

“Karen and Craig are so knowledgeable about hearing needs. I brought my Mom in to get her hearing aids checked. She had a lot of fitting problems from a former Audiologists care. Karen and Craig were able to fit her properly and help her hear much better in the aids she already had. They are both very caring and excellent in understanding hearing needs. I am so thankful we were referred to them. We live in Grand Rapids and feel it is well worth the drive to Holland for such great care.
