“I can actually hear my grandkids in the backseat when I am driving. These hearing aids are such a blessing!”

“I lost my hearing in my left ear suddenly. After many months of working with an ENT, I had to accept I was deaf in one ear. That was before I found Dr. Mary Chatelain. She fit me with state-of-the-art hearing aids that allow me to hear on both sides. After almost a year of not hearing in my left ear, I can actually hear!”

“I wish I had taken the time to have my hearing checked years earlier. Dr. Mary’s expertise has made a huge difference in my life!”
