Lori was able to match what I needed to hear better, and to make it a better place for my students to learn. Thanks again Lori”

“I have been needing hearing aides for 15 years and using them for 10. I recently came to this practice for repair which went well. My hearing aides were 5 years old and I noticed I was becoming less engaged with my friends. I went to see Tara and she went through a series of tests. I told Tara what I was experiencing . I told her I just started piano lessons and I have always loved music. Tara suggested I try a particular brand and style that could suit me needs. When I left her office I turned on the radio in my car and listened for 15 minutes to my recorded music that I've been listen to for years. I could hear pianos where I never knew they existed. I am a very happy man. Thank you Tara for listening to me and finding the perfect match for me.”

“I researched hearing aids at quite a few websites (manufacturers, audiologists, etc.) for a long time before choosing an audiologist for my first-ever hearing devices in July 2016. Although many audiologists are closer to my home, I chose Island Better Hearing because they offered more manufacturers, including the two that pioneered devices made for an iPhone (Starkey and Resound), and because I liked their website. Nine months later, I'm happy with my devices and have had a 100% positive experience with audiologist Tara; she knows her stuff, goes out of her way to be helpful both in the office and by responding to e-mail, and, having recently added my aging dad to her patient list at an independent living facility that IBH visits, has won him over, too, who aptly described her as "very sweet" (after complaining about the attitude of the audiologist he had used through 2016, when he was still living in his own house). The office seems to be very well run; try them!”

“I have been associated with Island Better Hearing since I migrated from the West Indies eight years ago. My experience with this establishment has been excellent and very professional. The appointment times are kept, I am always received in a warm and pleasant manner and I have always been treated with the utmost respect.

Tara has been taking care of my hearing needs but by and large, every member of the team is accommodating and caring. Thank you staff of Island Better Hearing. ”

They always go above and beyond to make sure their patients are well taken care of and happy after their visit. This is the only place I would ever take my son for his hearing needs. I trust them all completely with his care.”
