This teamworks makes appointments streamlined and smooth in meeting patient needs. This was a new area of health care for me and my partner.

They never pressured us to upgrade or make additional purchases. Thank you NWH&T!

I absolutely adore Northwest Hearing and Tinnitus! I go in for regular hearing aid maintenance, and…read morethey are always friendly, efficient, and on top of it. Not only are they easy to reach, but they schedule phone calls to patients so that you get in when you need to. The process for getting a hearing aid is simple, (hearing test, go over results, order the hearing aid) and most adjustments to it can be done to it remotely. They also gave me a little gift to celebrate my first one! Needless to say, I won't be going anywhere else for an audiologist!

I needed a very minor repair on a hearing aid that took about 3 minutes to do and was charged the $65.00 "for service" and $115.00 for the minor repair, all this after I because they do not work with my health insurance company. I am now out $215.00 and certainly will never go back there.

She talked about treatment strategies, gave me general ear health advice, and took the time to ensure all my questions were answered.

After searching online for audiologists, I decided to give PAC Audiology a try after reading numerous positive reviews. Dr. Anna and Dr. Marcy were both incredibly helpful in making sure my earplugs were a perfect fit. When my earplugs first came back, my right earplug didn't feel entirely comfortable. I came back twice for complementary adjustments, and eventually Dr. Anna ordered me a new right earplug made with slightly different specs. I really appreciate all the time and effort she and Dr. Marcy took to make sure I was happy with the earplugs. Scheduling with the front desk was easy, and they were usually able to fit me in within the same week. If I have hearing care needs in the future, PAC Audiology will definitely be the first place I visit!

Real help for Misophonia and Hyperacusis. My teenage daughter is finishing up her treatment at PAC…read moreAudiology for both Misophonia and Hyperacusis. We are very grateful to Anna Mamiya and the team at PAC for helping our daughter! Her condition made everyday life for her very stressful and painful. It impacted pretty much every aspect of her life and determined what we could do as a family. We are now able to eat dinner as a family again and go out in public to loud spaces - like the mall, Costco, etc. School has become much easier. The treatment does not cure misophonia, but it does teach her brain that the trigger sounds are not something that it needs to react strongly to and get away from. Yes, chewing sounds will always be annoying, but there is no strong emotional response anymore. I highly recommend anyone dealing with misophonia or hyperacusis to have a consultation with Anna Mamiya. She explains the science behind the treatment and what can be achieved. It all lined up with what I had already learned about the conditions so it made sense to have my daughter get the treatment. I am so glad we did! Life is so much easier now for her and us!

Six years ago I changed careers, got my teaching certificate, and ventured into the high school…read moreclassroom. Among other challenges, I discovered that I suffered from hearing loss. Often, I could not understand what my students were saying. While not being able to hear what teenagers are saying may seem like a blessing to some, for me, in the context of my job, it was frustrating and stressful. I was exhausted each day from the strain of simply trying to hear. I stayed in denial for a few years, and finally went to see an audiologist whose name and place of employment will remain unmentioned. He saw me a total of two times, stuck a hearing aid into my ear, and sent me out the door. I had to return the aids two weeks later, finding them utterly useless, adding to my stress instead of helping reduce to it. I spent another three frustrating years in the classroom before I was driven by desperation to give hearing aids another try. I contacted the president of the Washington State Hearing Loss Association of America. She referred me to Dr. Cherri Hoyden of the Hearing Specialty Center in Kirkland. I made an appointment and, not entirely hopeful, went to see Dr. Hoyden. For the first time I felt that I was talking to someone who completely understood my struggles with hearing loss, and who genuinely cared about helping me. She was patient, accessible, and extremely knowledgeable. We tried several aids before I decided on the one I now wear (and am very, very happy with). What impressed me most was Dr. Hoyden's willingness to see me as often and as many times as I wished. In fact, she insisted on multiple appointments to monitor and adjust each of the three hearing aids that I tried. I never, not once, felt rushed or ignored. The overwhelming quality that I experienced from her was one of concerned and caring patience. I offered to write this letter about Dr. Hoyden purely from my feelings of gratitude. In this day and age where medical treatment is often dispensed in the manner of fast food, Dr. Hoyden clearly values the human element. I do believe her primary intent is to provide the best service and help to those who suffer from hearing loss.

Conveniently located at Mockingbird and Abrams, and other locations, we drop by and have our hearing aids cleaned at any time and if there were to be a problem, (which we have had none in 5 years), they will give you a loaner pair while yours are sent out for service or your annual deep cleaning. Prices are reasonable and with the guarantee and warranty, well worth the cost. Yes, you can go "cheaper", but Livingston and Bell Tone, Sam's and Costco are NOT anything like the quality you get with a name like Oticon Hearing Aids, where the company puts people first. Hearing aids are a big investment so you don't want to go for the "bargain" price and compromise the most important thing--quality, reliability and most of all PERFORMANCE. Total Hearing has ALL your bases covered. Price range depends on the severity of your hearing crisis. We will continue to patronize Total Hearing as technology changes and our hearing needs progress through the years. You owe it to yourself to explore your options for where to purchase your hearing aids. Google the pros and cons of places like Sam's and Cosco. Do NOT go by what others say because everyone's hearing status is different. You may require a much advanced hearing aid from Sam's or Cosco, which would put you at the same price as Total Hearing. The range of cost will depend on the severity of your hearing loss. For that, I would recommend genuine, professional care, such as you will receive at Total Hearing.

She said "he was the best I've ever been too." My mom is profoundly deaf without hearing aids and has been since her 50s. She has visited numerous hearing aids centers over the decades, last most recent being Costco. Accompanying her to her appointment, I saw first hand the respect and professionalism Zach has. He knew how to engage my mom without embarrassing her because she needed a little more support in the process. His evaluation of her current hearing level was outstanding. I've never experienced that with my mom's other providers. When it came to the 'selling' of the hearing aids themselves, there was no pressure, simply a description of each type of device, how it would benefit her, and even what he wouldn't recommend because the device would be more than she needs in her life. The entire experience was great. I (and my mom) highly recommend Better Hearing Center and especially Zach!
