Eric Mounts,
Founder/Owner & H.I.S.
I’ve been in the hearing health industry for 30 years and have devoted my career to helping solve the problems of daily life caused by hearing loss.
First, as a technician, I attained the fundamental knowledge of hearing aid technology and practical skills from seeing how technology provides a better hearing experience if fit properly. I learned how variances in technology, testing, and fitting techniques impact success in hearing loss treatment and overall patient satisfaction. Because I was distressed by the level of patient care and attention available in our industry, I opened our first hearing center in 1994, for the sole purpose of focusing on our patient’s needs first. I have been doing that ever since, and I lead my team of professionals with this objective each day.
Hearing loss has a profound (negative) impact on those afflicted, but also on their loved ones. It touches every facet of life, health, mental well-being, and every interaction and relationship. Effective and professional treatment can profoundly change this.
In every interaction, we start by focusing on how to improve lives with better hearing. With solutions, not sales. We start by listening — to patients and to their loved ones. Our work and our success are based on what we learn from this process and our unique capability to provide the most diverse set of solutions available. Sometimes that means fixing a poorly fit hearing aid. Sometimes it means introducing our patient to the world of better hearing and options to achieve it.
We only fit the latest technology and the best products available anywhere in the world. We provide unsurpassed care (and caring). Because we are independent (not a franchise), we can offer the best solution or product to fit a patient’s needs, loss, lifestyle, and budget. With our low price guarantee and financing options, the barriers to treatment are eliminated. Our five full-time offices, our philosophy, and dedication to continuous training and education make us the premier provider in the area.

“Very patient with my problems”
“Very pleased with the service.very professional.hearing better as I walked out the door.”
“To be honest, I wasn’t sure hearing aids were for me. It took me awhile to get used to them. They were very patient with me during the trial period. Now, I love them and I’m so glad I didn’t give up! Their service is always done quickly and very professional. ”
“From the moment I entered Modern Hearing on Arlington Rd. I knew I had found the right place for help. Dr. Bush, and Jill were wonderful! I could not have chosen a better place for my hearing aids. I will always choose them in the future for any hearing needs that I have. Thank you Modern Hearing.”
“I am amazed at the quality and care that I received at Modern Hearing Solutions. I am visiting from out of state and my hearing aids, that has become so crutail in my everyday life, quit working. The clinic honored the warrantee, and the office returned the faulty hearing aid to the manufacture for repairs. When the clinic received the fixed hearing aid, my hearing was retested and the Doctor made sure my ear piece was in proper order. This being said, the truly greatful part of my whole visit was the fact Modern Hearing Solutions does not represent the company that manufactures my device, but still able to resolve my situation and give me some helpful insight. If you are unfortunate with hearing loss and have an opportunity to work with these professions. I believe you could not find better care,”
