“Last year it was suggested by my ENT that I needed hearing aids. I called my insurance company (new to me last year) who recommended several places I could get my hearing aids. I chose Community Hearing Services Rachel and her staff are great. Rachel explained what I could expect from a hearing aid and what types were available and the cost of each. I received my hearing aid quickly and was asked to come back I believe two weeks later to check on how I liked it. Everything has been great. I go in periodically to make sure I am happy. I have recommended Community Hearing to my friends. Thank you Rachel and staff. ”

“Worked with Rachel and she was wonderful. She is a consummate professional and went far above and beyond to help obtain a new set of hearing aids from first meeting to the end. While we encountered some bumps along the way, that were due to external parties, she never relented and stayed on point until all matters were addressed beyond satisfaction. I would highly recommend her and her colleagues as your hearing professionals without hesitation.”
