“I have tried hearing aids for 10 years and just didn't feel like they were helpful. Creel was recommended to me by someone who had the same issues and had found Creel helpful. They were very knowledgeable and informative. They are easy to deal with and I feel like I am on the path to getting value from my hearing aids.”

“Went in for cleaning for inner ear aid, the microphone went dead. Immediately had gotten a “loaner” to wear while my aid gets repaired ( still under warranty) . Impressed how much Creel (Ms. Sean) adjusted the loaner to the volume for my hearing . Times have changed so much for the better. Thanks CREEL ”

“The time spent on determining my hearing needs was incredible. Once it was determined that I needed hearing aids, then a great amount of time was spent on explaining how the hearing aids worked and how they should be used and cared for. The fit is perfect and I hate when I have to take them off. I wish I had gone sooner. If was a great experience from start to finish.”

“As a long time patient with Creel Hearing, I can only give the highest ratings to all involved. When I call with a problem, large or small, I am given an appointment quickly by the most competent receptionist, Gloria, and my issue is resolved to my satisfaction by either Laurie Hebert or Sean Brazeel. I would and have recommended this group of caring and skilled hearing specialists to anyone seeking help with hearing issues. They are the best!”

“I have been going to Creel Hearing Center since I received my first hearing aid. I liked everyone on staff and with our move to the Northshore, I am very happy to continue using them. They are always patient, explain procedures, etc very well. I have seen both Dr. Hebert and Dr. Brazell who both are always smiling. I also like the adavantage of being able to use my CareCredit credit card for large purchases, such as replacement hearing aids. ”

“dr Hebert ays close attention to being sure my ears are free from wax which could happen she has adjusted my hearing aids to improve the hearing as my hearing has changed and always knew what needed to be done.

“As a patient of Creel Hearing for 30 years, I can’t say enough good things about the personal care and concern I receive in every visit. I had an emergency repair need and they allowed my husband to bring it in right away since I was not able to leave work but couldn’t be without it. They got it up and running in just a few minutes. The words “we don’t have time” are not in their vocabulary. I’m loyal to Creel for life!”

“Dr Hebert's service was so satisfying that I referred 2 of my close friends to Creel. I had tried over the counter hearing aids thst never fit right with poor quality. Dr Hebert took time to give me the best quality sound and fit i didn't realize how bad my hearing had gotten till I had the right settings for me. Creel has always given me time for follow ups for cleaning and adjustments and explanations without rushing me . I am sending someone I work with to them. ”

“My late husband and I have both availed ourselves of hearing services with the Creel staff for a number of years and could not be more pleased. From phone calls to office pick ups for hearing aid supplies to actual appointments, we have always received friendly yet professional service from everyone in the office. I have recommended the staff to several friends with hearing problems and will certainly continue to do so. Definitely a most competent, caring, and warm environment to meet you hearing needs! ”

“I happened by the Metairie office to ask a question about getting a blue tooth inner-ear hearing aid to use for running and not only did they answer my question they went the extra TEN miles to make sure the product was a good streaming device and accommodated my level of severe hearing loss. Then they went TEN more and didn’t try to sell me on a higher priced rechargeable device but the more affordable battery device. TEN more miles and they took the impression right on the spot. Caring, understanding, concerned for their patients does not fully describe these wonderful people ❤️”

“For the past 4 years I have been a patient at Creel Hearing. I wear Lyric hearing aids, which are replaced every 2 months. I am in this office often, and EVERY time I come, the staff goes above and beyond to meet my varying needs. I don't know of any other hearing center that provides this high level of care and I have worn aids for 47 years. I have a lot to compare them to! :)”

“Two weeks ago I had car trouble and called AAA using my cell phone. I listened for 25 minutes to "your call is important to us" but never got a human voice to help me. Not so with you! I can't tell you how wonderful you were to take me right away. Not only did you fix me, but did it with such friendliness. People need to say thank you more often and try to remember that. ”

Cheryl W. of Mount Joy, PA 06/09/2015 Review received via mail
“They were very nice, extremely nice. They were friendly and professional. The only thing I didn't like was they ordered the hearing aids and they were too big for my ears since my ears are small. We had discussed my ear size so they should have known what size to order for the hearing aid. I haven't heard from them in 3 weeks.”
