“Fantastic service!! My aids were programmed perfectly based off my hearing test and feedback that I provided to them. I have never had this happen!! They know what they’re doing here, so thankful to have found them! ”

“I wanted Widex hearing aids because many musicians like myself prefer them. It was hard to find an audiologist that was experienced setting them up. but The Hearing Center was the best experience I have had with testing and fitting of aids . This is my third pair and is the first time I truly can forget I am wearing them, even when listening to music!”

“I have been coming here for years and would highly recommend it if you need a hearing aid. The staff is wonderful - knowledgeable, patient, and so very helpful. They are very caring and ready to help with any issues we have had. They even rush to hold the door open to help with my wheelchair!”

“I have dealt with many audiologists in CT, NYC and NJ over my 28 years of wearing hearing aids. There is not a more caring professional and individual there Dr Wallberg. She is tops in the industry and I wouldn't walk BUT run to Dr Wallberg if you need her help. She is the most special person and will always be thankful I was referred to her. ”
