Is it time to invest wisely in your hearing care?
Do you want to hear and understand the best you can? Of course, you do! So does your family. But a lot of people who seek help for hearing loss are disappointed with the results of the hearing aids they buy. That’s why I want you to know that when you choose Avalon...
You Are Not Alone
What is Normal for You? You are not alone. Hearing loss affects one in ten Americans. Your hearing loss not only affects you but it also impacts your loved ones. Because most hearing losses come on very gradually, family members are often the first to recognize...
What is Normal for You?
How are you? Truly, how are YOU? Just when you think it could not get any crazier in our world, it does. So much is going on; so much no longer feels normal. Will we ever return to a simpler, safer and more peaceful time? Resilient people make the best of crazy...
How do you take refuge?
Dear Friend of Avalon, Just when we think that things could not get crazier, they do. It feels that we are having a dark night of the soul, collectively. Sometimes I feel angry. Frequently, I feel afraid. Most of the time, I feel anxious and downright, weary. But what...
The Confusing Thing About Hearing Loss
The Confusing Thing About Hearing Loss Over the past few weeks, we have received numerous calls from people who did not purchase their hearing care or their hearing aids from Avalon. Some of these people ‘fired’ their hearing care provider but most of them simply did...
May You Be Abundantly Blessed
Ten years ago, this month, we moved our practice from the Hurley Way side of the building to the Fulton Avenue side. Now, that was an interesting move...literally walking boxes and furniture around the building! Only the massive sound booths had to be professionally...
Taking First Steps
My closest friend, Patricia, became a grandmother in October 2019. Her first grandchild arrived unexpectedly, six weeks early, and despite his tiny size, he was healthy. Thank goodness! Fast forward ten months, Patricia recently described her grandson’s attempts at...
Brain Training Through Your Ears
We hear with our ears. When we begin to lose some of our hearing, properly-fitted hearing instruments can help us hear many of the sounds that go missing. That’s the good news. Here’s the not-so-good news. Hearing aids alone don’t solve a hearing problem because we...
Physical Therapy For Your Ears & Brain
Every person with hearing loss is unique. You are unique! No two people are alike and no two hearing losses are alike. I remember on several occasions having two patients with the same identical hearing losses when looking at their audiograms. I fit both of these...
I truly love this place they treat you more than just a client but more likefamily right off the bat! Front desk lady is super nice and my audiologist is wonderful. They actually care about your needs rather than shove something you might not benefit from. They're very practical, professional and listen to all your concerns. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in need of a hearing aid.
I instantly felt I was in good hands when I met Betty when I was in need of replacement hearing aids. And so I drove two hours to get to Avalon and didn't regret the extra effort for even a moment. I've had hearing loss for years and loved the hearing aids I got six years ago but it was time to replace them when my cat chewed one of them. And I'm so much happier with the new ones! The technology has vastly improved but also Betty's exam was so thorough. I learned things about my hearing I'd not known. And she was very thoughtful about which devices I should consider. Betty has a lovely, caring manner along with a high level of expertise. This is not a hard sell business but rather a satisfaction guaranteed process.
Been part of Avalon family for almost 2,years and have always loved their personal care and the receptionist are top notch to make sure the patients don't mishear appointments. If you ever get to attend a class it's completely worth it!
