I really appreciated Dr. Smith's caring nature and understanding of what I was going through. She spent a lot of time educating me on tinnitus and listening to concerns as well.
Wonderful appointment with caring provider. Great eye contact, friendly, and let me watch on her computer screen the adjustments she was making (I find this so interesting). Would recommend Dr. Smith to anyone needing hearing assistance.
Everyone was extremely helpful. Dr. Annie Smith brought in another person to check me as well. Everything was explained and I couldn't ask for anything better.

Dr. Smith was incredible. I haven't had a hearing test in over a decade, and she made the experience so positive and reassuring. She was thorough and answered all of my questions.

Ann Smith is a really good audiologist!
Ann was very courteous and professional. Absolute doll.
The reason for making this apt was to have hearing aids adjusted but I was informed they were too old for them to adjust. The aids were cleaned and worked much better when I left
Outstanding

My experience with Dr. Ann Smith was outstanding. She has taken so much time explaining my Tinnitus and what I need to do for the sound. It has been a life changer for me! Today I have an audiology hearing test that was done with so much care. She has such a warm lovely personality..
Dr. Smith did a great job. Gave me space to talk and ask questions while also laying out a treatment plan. I was a bit tangential as a patient and appreciate the space I was allowed to speak freely. It was a great experience from check in to exit. The person who checked me very helpful and pleasant, instantly put me at ease which I appreciated.
Just that everyone was very kind and caring!
