Dr. Lori Losey Lovato has been nothing but a blessing to me in my search for a pair of hearing aids…read morethat fit my lifestyle. I came to SOUND Audiology and Hearing Aids at the beginning of the year to look for a new pair of hearing aids since It was time for an upgrade (my last pair was purchased in 2005!) Lori set me up with a new pair of ReSound hearing aids, a pair of hearing aids that have the ability to connect to my cell phone via Bluetooth. I have been completely blown away by how this pair of hearing aids have dramatically increased the quality of my life, and even more so how they have presented new opportunities for me! Dr. Lovato's expertise on different brands of hearing aids (such as the pros and cons, software type, lifestyle, fit) is, in my opinion, very valuable. Lori was able to adjust the settings on my hearing aids to help me hear more comfortably in louder settings (like a restaurant or at a baseball game) by cancelling out unwanted background chatter. I noticed these changes immediately when my family went out to eat at a very noisy restaurant and I was able to understand everything they were saying without any background interference from other patrons. It felt incredible to be able to hear! I confidently recommend friends and family to Lori as she always knows what will be the most beneficial for different people's lifestyles. The relationships that I have made at SOUND Audiology and Hearing aids are absolutely wonderful; the staff is lovely and the service is exceptional. I have never had any issues scheduling any appointments or getting in contact with them. It is always a pleasure knowing that I am in the presence of friends when I get my check-ups. I can't express how blessed I am to have Dr. Lori Losey Lovato as my audiologist, and I encourage everyone who needs hearing aids or even a hearing test to take your "journey to hearing well" with her at SOUND Audiology and Hearing Aids. I am so thankful we have such a wonderful audiologist in the Tri Cities!

I try to always support local businesses and especially a woman owned business. I came to this…read morepractice from another area. The first person I saw convinced me that I needed new hearing aides. She told me that the sound would be better. Sadly, that was not the case. I tried to schedule several re-checks, and I was put off. I then had to cancel a few times, too. Long story short, I still am not happy with the product they recommended. Frustrating to go in twice, pay the fee and be told that my aides were working "just fine". Finally, I convinced them to send the aids to the manufacturer, after the warranty had worn out. Even then, they kept telling me how expensive that would be, it was around 300 bucks. I am more frustrated that I was unable to schedule appointments without having to wait 2 months. I have had several challenges that were not addressed, nor was I even made aware of. The front office here are so very kind and welcoming. I just wish the actual service I received matched that.

I drove 2 hours from out of town, and this office visit was a COMPLETE waste of my time…read more First off, I scheduled this appointment THREE months in advance, and they tried calling to cancel the appointment... I absolutely refused to cancel my appointment I made not 1, not 2, but 3 months in advance. I advised them I was going to their city for a specific event that was the very next day, so NO, I could not just reschedule!!! At the appointment I was given absolutely no information, no pricing, NOTHING!!! The representative that took me into the room after the hearing test, couldn't find a single thing to be helpful to being able to provide the slightest bit of information. It's now been 26 day's and I STILL have yet to hear ANYTHING from them. So I called them back a SECOND time and again got NOTHING, but was told, oh I'm sorry, the provider still hasn't come into the office.... So I call a THIRD time today and got spoken to pretty rudely by "Ellen" I had to repeat myself THREE times to her before she offered any help. Advised me the doctor is STILL not in the office TWENTY SIX day's later.... So I asked her what is next, what the plan of action is, and by the end of the call, she was laughing at me, and I even pointed it out that she just laughed at me... She told me that she would call first thing tomorrow morning, and I told her.... HM...we'll see... And I told her that if I don't hear from her, that she'll be she hearing from me. My experience with this company has been completely awful, it seems like the entire thing was a waste of my time, money, and gas. So far, this provider/company has been a complete joke in regards to treating patients with tinnitus, or having any kind of sympathy, empathy, patience, or understanding. I would give ZERO stars if I could!!! I would most definitely NOT recommend making an appointment with this provider, especially if you're from out of town or out of state and don't even live in the same city in which their office is located. If they get around to ever getting a hold of me and correcting all of their mistakes, then I may update this review. But after how I felt getting off the phone with them, I knew I couldn't just stay quiet and not say anything.... I mean, I don't want others to have to suffer such horrible customer service, and go out of their way, only to be left 100% completely disappointed. People with tinnitus are suffering every single day of their lives, and we are searching for help & answers, and I'd like to think compassion as well, of which I have found none at Columbia Basin Hearing.
