“I was very pleased with the professional hearing exam I had with Dikpal Joshua. He explained everything before hand and made me comfortable. He reviewed the results of the aforementioned hearing test and determined at this time I was not in need of hearing aides and I should repeat the test in a year. I definitely recommend him as he is not just looking to sell hearing aides, he is most interested in finding You a solution if it required. Thanks…”

“I was very pleased with the professional hearing exam I had with Dikpal Joshua. He explained everything before hand and made me very comfortable by his demeanor. The results of the test was explained to me and since I was borderline with my hearing results we discussed returning in 6 to 12 months for another test to see if there is any change. I highly recommend him and HearingLife. Thank you.

“I used to take my Mother to the Boynton Beach office. When they moved to West Palm Beach, I thought "UGH". Well, we were there the other day and Lorna and Dikpal were wonderful. Mom was happy, so I was happy. They gave her a complete hearing exam and took the time to explain every aspect of it. Dikpal cleaned and adjusted Mom's hearing aides and I don't have to yell anymore. DEFINATELY worth the drive!!!”
