Don’t you deserve a warm, personal approach to your hearing care?
Welcome to Avalon Hearing Aid Centers
Helping You Hear the Best You Can…for Life!
We work with people who want to hear better and then, help you hear the best you can for life… your life now, and for years to come! We believe that your hearing care involves so much more than just buying hearing aids.
It starts with an EDUCATIONAL Hearing Test and Consultation. People tell us that it’s the most comprehensive hearing test they’ve ever had, guiding them into making the best decisions about their hearing for themselves and their loved ones.
How Avalon Helps People with Hearing Concerns
90 Minute Test
We take the time you deserve and educate you about your hearing. We do 6 additional tests that most providers don’t do. This extra time we spend together helps guide you to make the best decisions about your hearing care.
Fits Your Lifestyle
We take even more time to learn all we can about you, your lifestyle and your hearing needs. With over 600 different hearing aids on the market, we’ll find the right hearing solution for you. That’s part of how we keep you hearing the best you can…for life!
Education First
Hearing aids are only a part of the solution in treating hearing loss. True understanding begins with educating you about your hearing and continues throughout your lifetime care with Avalon.
Personal Approach
From your very first visit to Avalon, you’ll experience a warm, more personal approach. We want to know you for the unique person you are because you are so much more than a pair of ears.
The Avalon Difference
Since 1989, Avalon Hearing Aid Centers have been helping people who want to hear better, hear the best they can…for life! Quality hearing care is about reconnecting you to what matters most in your life.
Of course, we’ve got all the latest, state-of-the-art equipment and technology. You should expect that from any hearing care provider you’d consider. But at Avalon, it’s not just the equipment and technology that makes the difference.
Too many hearing care providers focus only on your ears and selling you hearing aids. They forget to slow down and understand what it means to have a hearing loss from your perspective. After all, you are more than a pair of ears. You are an individual who interacts with people and life in your own special way. Losing connection because of a hearing loss, even a mild one, takes the richness out of life. That invisible-but-real-wall of hearing loss disconnects you. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
At Avalon Hearing, we get to know you as a whole person, not just a set of ears. Then, together, we can determine the right hearing solution for you, your loss and your lifestyle. And, you can take that personally…because at Avalon, we do.
Get Educated
At Avalon, we spend an unheard-of 90 minutes together for your initial EDUCATIONAL Hearing Test and Consultation.
We teach you and your loved ones, first, because you need to know about your unique hearing loss and your hearing options.
Our 10-step hearing test determines if you need hearing instruments and if you do, just how much they will help you hear and understand.
We offer Free EDUCATIONAL Hearing Tests as a community service – with no cost or obligation to you!
We also provide FREE SECOND OPINIONS, no matter what insurance you have. And we work with most insurance companies.

Join The Family
At Avalon, we take a warm, personal approach to your hearing care. It’s important that you can be honest with your provider about what works and what doesn’t. You should make a regular visit to your provider at least every 6 months.
We look forward to meeting you...in person!
