“Behrouz explained in-depth to both me & my hubby about each of our individual hearing loss issues, what to expect in 6-12 mos, what is recommended and why. Behrouz is an excellent communicator. Mikaela was also excellent at performing our hearing tests and telling us what to expect during the testing. Both Behrouz and Mikaela were precise and clear during our appt meeting. Additionally we were provided with hard copies of all hearing tests & results. We hope we’re lucky enough at the next appt to get treated by Behrouz & Mikaela! ”
