Alexandria Hearing Centers, Massa & Associates - Sherwood

“Outstanding professional service”

“I'm an Anne fan -- Dr. Ann Parro , that is. I've been her patient since she first worked for Mike Massa, and I was a motorcycle-riding DOJ Attorney. Ann's got it all. Intelligence. Knowledge. Personality. Let me give you an example from my last appointment. It was the day after I worked all night on a legal pleading, and every one of my nerves was on fire. I guess you could say that every drop of MY intelligence, knowledge, and personality had drained from me. At that moment, I needed nothing else in life except sleep and a well-functioning left hearing aid. Dr. Parro never lost her cool, worked out a temporary fix, and sent me home to sleep and to await the manufacturer's permanently fixing and returning the aid. Dr. Parro is more than an audiologist. She's a friend. Need a really, really good Doctor of Audiology? Go. See. Doctor. Ann. Parro. ”

“Excellent appointment, Dr Lienemann was on time, explained all the steps of my appointment with a clear & thorough explanation”

“The staff and doctors at Alexandria Hearing are wonderful. ”

“Just a note of appreciation to Dr. Parro and the Alexandria Hearing Center for their invaluable service and help they have provided me for many years. You cannot find a better audiologist or staff anywhere in the DC area. Dr. Parro listens attentively to you and is never "pushy" about upgrading unless testing determines it is necessary which I very much appreciate. She and the Center have kept me hearing at a high level through many years and still going strong at 89 years of age. Again, many thanks to them all. ”

“outstanding, even though i couldn't recollect her face and name from previous visits... which means that she was outstanding,,, no hiccups. and look forward to seeing dr.perera next visit.. i think i actually wrote an outstanding review for her at least my last one or two appointments.. very personalble, easy to talk to, listen to questions, and answer them greatly... appreciated.... ”

“Dr Perera is very knowledgeable and is a complete professional.”

“Jessica is a true professional!”

“I have been going here for several years now and ALL the staff are good listeners and very responsive. Like my cardio Dr., their refrain is: “Don’t hesitate to call us if you have a problem.” Hearing well is as important as your heart working well - both impact the quality of life if the don’t function properly! ”

“Dr. Januszewski was the perfect representation for my first Hearing Aid experience. She was thorough in her explanations, and demonstrations of all that was required. The Receptionist was welcoming and was very cordial in her interaction with me.”

“I have been a patient for many years, and, always, the service is excellent!”

“outstanding as always, for more years than i would like to admit, keep up the great customer outstanding service.. dennis.”

“Dr. Januszewski was very thorough and professional. I was very satisfied with her care and advices. ”

Have been with the practice for many years; unlike some of my previous events. Look no further.”

“Check-in was super easy and everyone at the front desk was very nice and customer oriented. Dr. Lieneman was very helpful, answered all my questions and took care of my oticon hearing aids right away (download and changed my rechargeable batteries). I would recommend this office to anyone! 5 Stars!”

“I had great experience with Alexandria hearing center. Dr. Lienemann is wonderful to work with. The front desk staffs are very nice.”

“I bought new hearing aids from Alexandria Hearing in November, 2023. I should have had them cleaned and checked in June but I waited until this morning, July 16 to call them and request an appointment. They had received a cancellation and asked if I could come right away. I did so and was amazed at the great service and staff. Thank you ”

“Both Dr Parro and staff are very knowledgeable and professional. Excellent care and concern are exhibited in the amount of attention and time given at each appointment to my concerns and comfort.”

“I have experienced hearing issues for many years due to riding a motorcycle since a teenager and also to make a living. My wife and I contacted our health insurance for a referral to a highly regarded Hearing specialist. I am currently wearing hearing devices but we desired a professional to retest my hearing. We were referred to , Massa and Associates and we found our testing experience and followup recommendations to be very thorough, detailed and met our expectations for a detailed and considerate visit. We are excited about our future relationship with these professionals. Our hearing is of the utmost medical importance and directly affects our mental health. All of us need to know about the status of our hearing and have regular testing as prescribed by a trusted specialist. We highly recommend , Massa and Associates to anyone with hearing and even memory concerns. ”

“I have had my Oticon hearing aids for several years, and Dr Parro has worked with me to address my problems and concerns during our twice-yearly appointments. Each time I saw improvements, but today she had some new software that made it possible for her to adjust various settings with me able to hear the differences and get the adjustments for each program to my satisfaction. I had often complained about the program used to manage my hearing aids from my IPhone, but this time she had a new IPhone ap that allows me to make more types of adjustments. This is a major improvement. I commend Dr Parro for her patience in dealing with my concerns over the years. January 2025 Update - I have been seeing Dr. Parro regularly ever since I got my hearing aids. Over that time, she has been very patient with me and taken the time to answer all my questions and make adjustment to address my concerns. I feel this professional attention is the reason I am going to a professional audiologist for care rather than buying store-bought hearing aids from a retail establishment.”

“As a patient of Dr. Parro for a number of years the experience has always been very good. The staff is nice and efficient. I have recommended their practice to several people.”

“From start to finish purely professional!!”

“Treated with utmost respect and professionalism ”

“Always top-notch service. Given more knowledge for my Tinnitus and possible next Hearing aids. Been going here for 4 years and this is the reason I keep them as my Audiologists, they are that good.”

“My hearing aids went dead on Tuesday night while I was trying to adjust them. The next day I called the office and they made an appointment for the following day. When I got there they immediately fixed the problem and I was on my way! Great service!”

“This being my first time seeing an Audiologist, Dr, Jessica Januszewski, was very professional in every aspect of my appointment with her. The fact that she detected hearing loss in her very thorough examination, and her recommendations for hearing aids that she thought would be suitable for me, as well as her clear explanations in answering my questions, was very important to me. She also took time to check with my insurance as to their contribution towards the cost, which was also very helpful. I am definitely looking forward to continuing my audio experience with her, and all who assists in this Clinic.”

“Dr. Parro is simply the best — personally and professionally. She has it all — knowledge, experience, personality….. We are very fortunate to have her in the area.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Parro for many years and have only the highest praise for her and the Alexandria Hearing Center on Sherwood Hall Lane. I have gone from a mild hearing problem to more extensive hearing problems, due to old age, while under her care, and she has kept me hearing with no problems. This while having the same hearing aids for more than seven years and wearing them 24/7. She is compassionate and caring, listens to you, and provides various solutions to any problems you may have. I would recommend her to anyone. ”

“I found all the employees friendly, willing to answer questions, and competent. Dr Lienemann was helpful in choosing the particular hearing aid, and answered all my questions. I am somewhat nervous about getting the aids, and the first wearing of them, but I feel I can count on expert help. ”

“Absolutely a fabulous Medical Clinic. My wife, Elaine, due to an illness, lost her 90% of her hearing, had serious congestion and was coughing . Receiving virtually an immediate appointment and within minutes of arrival, Heather Condon, determined needed medical treatment. She cleared her ears channels, ordered needed medicine and provided excellent advice. We are thrilled with the results. ”

“Dr. Perera explained the results of the hearing test in detail and answered all my questions clearly and concisely. Clearly explained the differences between various types of hearing aids and gave recommendations based on my particular situation. 5 stars all around.”

“Absolutely outstanding, as usual for too many years to count, and several times during each year. Already scheduled the next appointment. Most courteous, professional, and knowledge medical staff , as well as the owner Ms Ann Parro, Aud. D. who gives her own personal attention to the patient, but also ensures a smooth working teamwork with the co-located ear, nose, and throat office. The office also participates in an internship program, with a local university, i.e. furthering the audiology profession.. Every one that i've met over the years, including today, surely are very lucky students to work in the office. Keep up the good work.. ”

“Dr. Stoup is an Excellent Audiologist! She is very thorough and patient. I come away from my appointment feeling very confident and knowledgeable about how to take care of my aids and feeling empowered. Whenever I have a question or need assistance, Dr. Stoup has always gone above and beyond.”

“Highly recommend Massa Associates if you suspect a hearing loss or problem. They will offer best advice based on the individual. ”

“Dr. Stoup, Dr. Parro and all the staff at Alexandria Hearing Center go to great lengths to make sure you are absolutely satisfied with their Oticon hearing aids. After several years using their services, I highly recommend the hearing aids and this provider. ”

“Have been using this audiologist for a long time and l am very pleased with the quality and timeliness of their service on every visit. The hearing aids they recommend are top quality. ”

“So, even though I has a manufacturer issue with my hearing aids, the staff, especially Dr. Perera was very knowledgeable, extremely helpful and resolved the issue within my warranty time. They were wonderful about rescheduling appts when I had to. Finally, the hearing aids I purchased are high quality for the money I spent. I will continue to follow up with them for my hearing issues. ”

“Dr Perera is a wonderful doctor- consistently patient, easy to work with and helpful. I highly recommend her. ”

“Dr Stoup is very professional and knowledgeable. But most importantly, Dr Stoup really listened and explained and answered my questions as she patiently adjusted my hearing aid volume until I was comfortable with it. I really appreciate her help! God bless her!”

“The person who handled me was very professional and knowledgeable. Very patience and answered all my questions ”

“Heather Condon, Dr. Stoup and Dr. Voight have always give me thorough care. They listen to my concerns, answer all my questions and takes time to explain their diagnosis. A professional and caring practice. Thank you all.”

“Dr. Janani Perera, Was so patient and understanding. This was my first pair of hearing aides. She took her time to show me how to use them , and take care of them. She answered all of my questions. Very warm personality. A very good visit. Thank you Dr. Janani Perera. You have a loyal patient.”

“Happy to say, again, after many years and many appointments that the staff are the most outstanding, courteous, knowledgeable professionals, that I have had the pleasure of working with, and plan to keep seeing them.. next appointment is already scheduled for three months as usual. They are also an exceptional team working with the ear, nose, and throat staff co-located with them. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the TLC. *August 2023 Update - Really consider myself to be very fortunate to have such outstanding care from the entire audiology staff, just like many times before, and absolutely confident it will be the same again in about four months.. Excellent teamwork among the audiology staff, and with the co-located otolaryngology staff.. Many thanks for the tlc.. ”

“My appt. was with audiologist Johnna. As always, she was patient and knowledgeable, expertly adjusting my devices to accommodate some recent hearing issues. This office has first rate providers and everyone is friendly and professional! I highly recommend this practice!”

“My appointment was with Dr Johnna Stoup, great personality, very patient & understanding & she gave clear, excellent instructions in the use of my new hearing aids”

“I was referred to this audio group by Dr. Nathan, who my wife and I regard as first rate. I have been going to Dr. Danner for about a year or so, and have learned quite a bit from her. She assured me that she is leaving me in good hands, so I anticipate receiving first rate treatment from the other audiologist in this group. We are lucky to have this combined ENT and audiology group only a 5-minute drive from home.”

“I went, They checked my hearing, I had lost a little from last time. Cleaned my hearing aids. Sent me happily on my way.”

“I have been a patient for about 13 years and I’ve met all of the doctors. They are good and pleasant. I’m in for the long haul with them. It is also advantageous that the practice is collocated with a good ENT/ear, nose & throat practice. Depending on the problems that arise related to my hearing and ears, the full spectrum can be treated here. This is all that you need.”

“Good experience reception was good the doctor was super. She took time to explain in detail the results of the examination and the options available. Tested several products and went over their features. Selected one to test for compatibility and will make a final selection in the next few days. Good experience.”

“I drive well over 45 minutes just to continue going to this office because the staff is always 100%. They have been nothing but kind, patient and informative to all my questions and concerns. ”

“I've always referred to Dr. Parro as Doctor Ann due to the Tender Loving Care (TLC) and outstanding professionalist that she always extends to her patients. Doctor Massa introduced us at Walker Lane office, more years ago than I can count, and always kept the patient's well being as her number one priority, without ever having to think about it, as i think it's always been natural. My first appointment with Dr. Emalee Danner, this a.m. due to scheduling requirements, which made me a little anxious, being treated in an outstanding manner for a long time by Dr Ann,, but i need not have worried. Dr. Emalee is a cut from the same mold as Dr. Parro.. I always say these days, be safe, secure, healthy, and be careful out there. ”

“Excellent experience, the staff went above and beyond helping my 91 year old dad get hearing aides, highly recommend them!”

“I have patronized AHC for more than 2 years. Ann Parro has successfully treated my hearing loss and monitored my hearing. I have always been treated professionally and with the highest level of courtesy and competence.”

“We are a military family, living here in Alexandria VA. It has always been a "process" to say the least to get molds, equipment and testing for our 9 year old twin boys. When we were directed to Alexandria Hearing Centers, and Dr. Santivasi, we were finally able to exhale. Dr. Santivasi is very good at what she does. On top of that, she is a people person. She is easy to talk with, and made the whole process so very relaxed and easy from the start. We appreciate her professionalism and her approachability. Thanks Dr. Santivasi for being so darn awesome!!!!”

“Excellent staff and Dr was extremely helpful and really cared. Highly recommended ”

“Both your receptionist and Dr Santivasi were professional in dealing with me. I was soon put at ease, as I was a liltle nervous, not knowing what to expect and the test went well. I also understood the explanation well as Dr took time to explain well and answer a my questions. Thanks”

“Follow-up visit from new hearing aids earlier in year. Excellent service from new to me audiologist (and trainee). Appointment time met, good coronavirus practice followed with professional service. ”

“Thorough examination and expert diagnosis. Suffered from hearing loss for twenty years and finally someone knows how to help me cope with the problem. ”

“I finally found someone who could help me with my hearing loss due to aircraft engine noise. The personally frequency tuning hearing aids help me hear better and make me more confident and keep this old guy from becoming isolated. The follow up care and personalized service are just great. This is worth the cost. I was tired of saying, "Huh?"”

“They have excellent customer service, were on time, provided excellent orientation and patient teaching. I would highly recommend them.”

“ I have been working with this team since 2012 when I started wearing hearing aids. All of the members have been so helpful and responsive in helping me to understand my options, how to maximize my hearing, and always being Available to answer questions. They have all helped explain what is happening with my hearing and again how to maximize my hearing. Also their kindness and patience has meant a lot over these seven years that I have Visited their offices.”

“The staff was very friendly and explained everything from charges for service and what testing was taking place. I felt like the Doctors treated me like I was the only one I the office. They were very knowledgeable and took great care with my diagnosis. Would recommend to anybody experiencing hearing loss to visit this office.”

“Hearing test procedures were clearly explained. Dr Paros helped compare prices between new hearing aide vs using used hearing aide given to me by a friend. However at this time I am not ready to proceed with using hearing aides. Will re-visit this option in 2020. Thank you ”

“Front staff very efficient and friendly. Never have to wait. Doctor very personable and knows her stuff. They'll take good care of you! ”

“The staff is not only on top of the latest technology but knows the financial implications, as well as when to introduce improvements to keep pace with ensurance requirements and limits for you. In brief, they keep you informed of all aspects of audio technology. And, I don't mind the easy, collegial atmosphere.”
