Finally at 11:45, the doctor appeared for about two seconds escorting a patient out. He then disappeared into the back. Never said a word to me. I sat in the waiting room for almost another hour (until 12:40) and had still not spoken with ANYONE in the office. I walked to the back of the office around 12:45 and all the lights were off and the doctor was nowhere to be found. Customer service rating: Big fat "0". Need hearing service: LOOK ELSEWHERE!.

Dr. Lisa Gumina, an audiologist and founder of Finer Hearing, made a house call and fit my family member with Widex Beyond hearing aids. I had to let others know that Dr. Lisa provides this extraordinary service. Moreover, she was kind and patient completely explaining everything in understandable language. Dr. Lisa surprised my family member with a follow up call checking on them and then discussed next follow up steps. She the journey not scary and broken down into small, realistic expectations and steps. She made sure to involve family to improve outcomes too always following HIPAA guidelines. She gave a beautiful gift that if communication and better understanding for someone with a severe, bilateral hearing loss. This person know hears the windshield wiper blade while I am driving and they are on the phone. They hear the clock ticking and ask if I heard that. That person attended Church that has a hearing loop and spent the entire mass smiling because they heard the sermon and songs. That was the best gift of all. Thank you Dr. Lisa for recommending Widex aids and all of their amazing TV and phone links too. Fun to even see a hearing aid finder if the aids are ever misplaced. Truly unbelievable technology. Thank you so much for sharing the gift of communication again so we can talk.

Don't go here. First of all, they make you pay in advance. Then in order to get your hearing aid…read moreyou have to sign a waiver that allows them to get more money than the agreed upon contract with your insurance carrier. And if you don't sign the waiver, they won't submit your insurance claim. My original waiver was left blank and I was led to believe that I would be reimbursed for whatever the insurance said it was worth. Well, then my waiver was lost and they would not send my claim in unless I signed a waiver that was now filled in with 80% of maximum of $1000. Oh, did I mention that my claim was not submitted until I brought it to their attention nearly three months later? So the game changed over that time period. Feels like they were hoping I would forget about what I paid in advance and they would get to keep all of my money. Then not submitting unless I signed the now complete waiver? Seems like coercion to me. I've learned my lesson, NEVER pay in advance. NEVER sign a waiver. This is a scam and they will do whatever it takes to get more than the agreed upon contract. If I had knee surgery, I wouldn't have to pay more for the device than the agreed upon contract with insurance. They are taking advantage of people and the system. By the way, I've since looked them up and several people have sued. Stay far far away! They should be ashamed of how they do business! This is unethical.

Or sure- I go and do the obligatory physical every year with all the corresponding tests, but I've yet to find a doctor that I want to have a long term relationship with. Well- that all changed the other day when I visited Dr. Sachtleben. So what made me change my mind? First of all- his office squeezed me in even though I wasn't a regular patient. Much appreciated given I was sick and needed some help. Secondly- this guy listens. Took the time to hear why I was there all the while typing what I said into his computer so that he could refer back to it. We talked about a wide range of things and what I liked is that he did not offer up the standard doctor lines about things. There is always more than one way to solve an issue and Dr. Sachtleben subscribes to that theory. All in all- not only did he solve my health issue- but he built my trust which is what I ask for in someone who is going to partner with me on my health. He came recommended to me by another doctor that I know and trust and I feel good about recommending him here. Now if I could only learn to pronounce his name properly!!
