“Great staff. Explained everything about the testing being done. Answered my questions. Very courteous.”
“I was referred to this office from my ENT. I really wasn't sure what to expect since I've never been to an Audiologist. The doctors were great, explaining everything through each procedure. The receptionist up front was so friendly. And I was seen at my appointment time. I would definitely recommend this office!”
“My hearing aids just died on me today, but Chase was very helpful in getting them up and running again. Going to Dr. Thomas’s office is always a pleasant experience!”
“Everyone was friendly and helpful, from the initial phone call to schedule the first appointment, to check in, and initial exam. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience.”
“My visit with Hearing and Balance Clinic in Watkinsville, Dr Griffin, resulted in a very kind, professional, and caring experience. I am being treated for sudden, but permanent ear loss in one ear. Not what you want to know, but Dr Griffin assured me that he would help me through this situation! I recommend this office in the highest regard.”
