Harbor Audiology and Hearing Services - Gig Harbor

“I have read many of the reviews and I see that Ronda is very popular. And I agree. She was very professional and very informative. So was the staff when I checked in.”

“I recently had my hearing tested at the Gig Harbor Clinic. I was very impressed with the professionalism, and kindness during my visit. Everyone was very knowledgeable and made sure that I felt comfortable throughout all of the tests that were performed. Thanks to all of the staff who made sure that I had a positive experience.”

“From the moment I arrived, the girls at the front desk were exceptional. I was very anxious about the testing that was going to be done on me. So nervous about it, that I didn’t make an appt a year earlier when my ENT referred me to them. Silly me! It wasn’t bad at all! Dr. Molly who performed the testing was incredible. She made me feel at ease, and thoroughly explained every procedure that was done. She answered all my questions and really listened to what I had to say. Very compassionate! Thank you for helping me thru this! Wish I hadn’t put it off a year! ”

“Everyone is very helpful and excellent in customer care. Always a smile. Doctors are patient and dedicated to working with you to make sure your hearing needs are met. I recommend this office to everyone with hearing needs. They truly are the best!”

“Molly is very knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable. Takes her time with you and answers all your questions. ”

I was made comfortable in both the testing situation and in the information sessions. The staff is very knowledgeable and approachable. I highly recommend Harbor Audiology.”

“Knowledgeable and friendly. Always leave feeling good about my visit ”

“Dr. Molly Porter was very professional, was on time and made me feel comfortable. She explained the test and all of the details in a language I could understand. We talked about why I was having trouble with my old hearing aids and what the new ones can do for me. Most of all to someone who is on SS the total bill is being paid by my insurance. I would recommend this office to anyone who is having issues with old hearing aids or just needs the exam to see where they are at. The staff is also very friendly and made me feel at home. ”

“The appointment was right on time. The Doctor took the time to meet with me, she discussed what was going to happen and then reviewed the results with me in terms that I could understand. Through it all she was professional and friendly. ”

“As a new patient I noticed professionalism of the entire staff from check-in to Dr exam was very notable! Great appointment ~ in & out and on with my day…”

“Top notch! The location was easy to find and access. The building is large, modern and very clean. From the time I walked in, to the time I left it was a great experience for a medical appointment. Dr. Molly Porter was very friendly and extremely thorough and knowledgeable during my entire testing procedure. She thoroughly explained what she was going to do, how she was going to do it and what I should or could expect from each individual test. Since I've been experiencing vertigo/dizzy symptoms, not all the tests were 100% pleasant but Dr. Porter talked me through them and added divided attention tasks to distract me from the unpleasant dizzy feelings. Unlike most doctor's I was not rushed. She allowed me time to get my dizzy under control before moving on to the next test which is much appreciated when you feel like you are on a rocking boat a lot of the time. If I need audiology services in the future I would definitely go back to Dr. Porter. * HIGHLY recommend her*”

“This was a very professional, informational and pleasant experience. Dr. Molly Porter Au.D., CCC-A was extremely knowledgable, and explained my test results thoroughly. She fully and completely answered all my questions, and offered me a way to remove the wax buildup in my ears - particually in my left ear which she said had more wax buildup in it than in my right ear. She was right, I noticed that was true when I performed her suggestion today - 2 days later. When I called and asked for a copy of my results, Crystal promprly emailed them to me. I give Dr. Porter a 5 Star Rating! ”

“Very professional group; in fact the most thorough audio exam I've ever had. Front desk was most helpful with preliminary paperwork and Molly was a joy to work with, even sending me the exam summary (first time that's ever happened).

But that's not how it went at all! They were prepared for my visit and helped me with exactly what I needed very quickly.

“I freaked out when I didn’t see Pamela right away! She has been the public face of Harbor Audiology for a long time and has ALWAYS been very helpful and kind! I’m glad you moved her up to a position of more authority, you won’t be disappointed!!! My experience with Molly was nothing short of amazing! Part of how I judge experiences with my caregivers is how competent they are with the equipment and how carefully they ACTUALLY listen to me regarding MY needs. Molly gets 13 stars on your 5 star rating. (Your rating system is too small!) I have been a patient at Harbor Audiology for a long time and have, without fail, received good care, but this last trip was the best, ever. Thank you for moving Pamela to a position of higher authority and thank you for having someone as competent and caring as Molly on your staff. Sincerely, P.S. please keep sending me those quarterly reminder cards for hearing aid cleaning and more batteries. I get busy and would not remember otherwise. ”

“They are very pleasant people to work with. Fer sure. Patient and thorough with explanations of the assessment, the options, the recommendations, the equipment. The devices arrived. Then came the fitting .... "thorough" first comes to mind. There is a LOT to these new devices and Ronda was incredibly thorough and patient in making the programming adjustments, validating the settings with a Real Ear Test, and familiarizing me with all the device features.They use a checklist to assure they don't miss some portion of the process. I walked away with new devices AND a good understanding of how to best use them. Was also provided with documentation, contact information for ongoing help, and a follow-on appointment to track progress and fine tune. 2 thumbs up. A quality practice with quality practices. Great people.”

“I am a nervous - anxious - first time purchaser of hearing aids. I have been tested before - read everything on the internet - almost had myself convinced that I was fine without them. BUT - this office - these people are absolutely professional. All questions are answered. They are kind - attentive and very sensitive. We spend a lot for these two little gems. We should be excited about the purchase and the people who helped. I am both of those.”

“Dr Porter is extremely interested in her patients’ particular needs and is attentive to treating them in any way possible”

“Dr Day-Moran was easy to talk to and ready to teach me about inner ear issues I have experienced. When my husband was screened, although she recommended a hearing aid, there was no pressure when it was obvious he was not ready to consider it. I really appreciated that since he only went for the screening at my urging. A free hearing screening is an excellent way to see if you have any hearing issues and what might be done about it. Win/win!”

“My wife and I are new in this community. I've had hearing aids for many years and completed a reevaluation of my hearing needs prior to our arrival. The folks in Harbor Audiology were most gracious and accomodating to my request. Although the hearing aid product that I sought was not one that they normally utilized they quickly deteremined that the product I requested could be managed right there. The whole team efficiently contributed to making my first audiology experience in Gig Harbor very satisfying. I can highly recommend this audiolgy team - practical, considerate and still professional.”

“Dr Porter and everyone at front desk were very helpful, courteous, more than willing to help out with the needed paper work, took the time to answer all my questions in detail, very knowledgeable about hearing issues. Would recommend them to anyone that is looking for hearing services. Best of all they even laughed at my dumb jokes. Great personalities. Definitely will be going back when needed. ”

“If you are looking for absolutely incredible customer service with the bonus of having true professionals in their field, look no further than Harbor Audiology! Kim and Dr. Laura are the very best. Addressing patient's needs and doing so with the utmost kindness and professionalism. Great organization!”

“Dr. Molly is very friendly and knowledgeable. Only one fussy remark, the step to get up into the examination room was to high for a very short and handicapped old woman. She needs a removable short step. But she was willing to help me up and the exam was very pleasant. ”

“I appreciated Dr. Molly's expertise and her friendly and easy manner. Obviously she's super knowledgeable and answered all my questions and concerns about my hearing. ”

“Dr. Porter was extremely helpful, answering our questions with patience and expertise. We will return with any of our hearing needs, knowing we are in the hands of an efficient and caring office.”

“I'm one of those guys that like to do the research before buying a product to make sure I m getting the best available product on the market, especially when dealing with my health. All the independent reviews I read rated one hearing aid at the top of the list consistently and Harbor Audiology was their local authorized retailer. The hearing aids are high tech and function fantastically, and the professionals at Harbor Audiology know how to program them to get the best results for your life style. Laura is not just an expert on the product, she is also a user so she understands hearing loss from not just an academic point of view, but also at a personal level. I highly recommend Harbor Audiology for there professionalism, service, product lines, and convenient locations.”
