“New Patient Hearing Exam and Evaluation for Hearing Aids - Just had a very positive and helpful experience at IBH. The office staff are friendly and accommodating. My exam was conducted by Dr. Katelyn Stoehr, who was very careful and focused during the test. My hearing was so poor that Dr. Katelyn configured a pair of hearing aids right after the test and put them on me so that I could better understand the test results and her evaluation and recommendations. Wow, what an experience. I have not heard that well in years, it was an incredible feeling. I am really happy and impressed the doctor took the time to do that for me. So, we were able to talk through my results and answer all my questions. It was a very enlightening and pleasant experience. I felt so confident in Dr. Katelyn and IBH, that I placed an order for my first ever hearing aids at the conclusion of my evaluation. I could not be more pleased with my experience at IBH and the care I received from Dr. Katelyn. Thank you !”
