“As a 76 year old man,I have a very poor option if the medical field and the political field. I came here expecting a lot of up selling. Neither happened here I was treated kindly, was educated, and was treated with respect. Never felt any pressure to buy the most expensive hearing aid or to even buy a hearing aid. I found the owner to be old school. Her kind gentle approach reminded me of the past when medical professionals actually cared about their patients. For the most part those days are gone except at this establishment. I did agree to purchase an expensive hearing aid and will find out if I made a good decision soon. But if your looking for a kind gentle soul who truly wants to help you, you've come to the right place To the husband who served in the Coast guard,thank you for your service and I hope you know what a lucky man you are ”

Your review of our visit goes above an beyond any review one could expect. I truly hope that we can find devices that will work great for you and meet most of your hearing needs. I look forward to working with you on your journey to better hearing.”
“My initial visits were perfect! My testing and evaluation was thorough and I felt the the data was 100% accurate. I understood what needed to be done and Emily got it done. My improvement with my hearing was immediate and I was very pleased. So was my wife, family and friends who don’t have to repeat things! Recently, I lost my right device. No problem, thanks to the replacement insurance Emily recommended. I had the replacement in a couple days and the team got me “paired” up the next day. I appreciate providers who stand by their products and these folks do. I highly recommend this group if you have hearing issues. You will be glad you used their services.”

“The staff at the Audiology and Hearing Center of Gainesville From the receptionist and office staff to the audiologists, the entire group are positive, friendly, good communicators and supportive. In addition, their expertise in audiology, especially the technical aspects of hearing aids is excellent. In my experience, Dr. Pastore (the owner) knows the companies, the architecture, and technology involved with every hearing aid. She fit me with hearing aids, explained all the nuances of how best to manage my hearing aids and, a year later when I had some problems, she quickly diagnosed the issues, sent my hearing aids off to be adjusted and fixed, and sent me home with a loaner pair of hearing aids that were set to my hearing needs. After working with 3 other audiology groups, I can say that Dr. Pastore and her group are the absolute best.”
