“My daughter had to get her 1 year hearing screened due to her NICU stay at birth, Dr. Pastore, was so amazing with my daughter and we enjoyed our conversations and fun screenings with her. Would highly recommend for your little ones. ”

“Thank you, Keri. I truly enjoyed meeting you both today. It's always fun to see patients with such a big smile on their face!”

“I had not seen Dr. Bell for 4 1/2 years. My hearing aids have been working well, but I visited the practice in response to a flier from them about new hearing aid technology. Dr. Bell advised me about my current aids and she suggested that I should have a hearing test given the lengthy time since I had one. I am so glad she did. She found that my hearing had worsened some and then, based on the results of the test, optimized my hearing aids to better match my current state. Dr. Bell is smart, easy to work with, but most of all she is honest and truly cares about her patients.”

“Dr. Bell is an exceptional audiologist. She is extremely thorough. She literally gave to me my social (conversations with family, friends, church life, concerts, bird listening, etc) life back to me. Through testing, trying different devices, listening to me to improve hearing. She didn’t give up on me and she got it right. Means the World ”
