Thanksgiving 2023
Thanks is given for the expertise, skill, and considerate nature of Dr. Leslie Staverman. Her knowledge is extensive in audio and all things of sound. Decades ago, I gave up on listening to the stereo unless the volume was rattling my teeth, and lyrics have been beyond me for ages. Then, Divine Providence sent me to Dr. Staverman.
She tested me. She explained the results. I was dismayed that I wasn't dealing with just tinnitus, but other aspects of hearing loss. Dr. Staverman helped me get a pair of battery hearing aids; batteries were a bother, so after a while, I didn't bother at all. Time passed and maybe the aids need cleaning?
Dr. Staverman could do nothing further for those hearing aids. Technology had passed them by...
Technology did not get lost on Dr. Staverman! She studied my current condition and situation. There were some Bluetooth wi-fi aids that she felt would be perfect for me; I wasn't too sure, but Dr. Staverman had faith that the Oticon brand was made for me. She got them in a lovely green color that I chose.
Finally, they were here. She got them fitted into my ears, and then spent considerable time showing me how to operate them, paired to my iPhone. That was only the beginning! The epic continued, and she always had the patience and empathy to know what I was saying, even if I couldn't express it adequately. Dr. Staverman is amazing. The new ears are working to diminish the ringing in my ears, while letting me hear TV, speech, and birdsong again.
Would that all my health care professionals were as wise and caring!
The office is comfy, relaxing, not intimidating and scary. Although, Rose, the office mgr is so warm and sweet, as is Dr. Staverman, that she will put you at ease. Such a pleasant atmosphere as I've rarely met.
Take my advice to visit the best audiologist in Jax, maybe all of FL. Dr. Staverman wants everyone to enjoy hearing well. I can't thank her enough!!! read more
