“Sterling Hearing Care has the best set up for hearing testing and hearing aids. My brother, who was somewhat of a 'doubting Thomas' regarding hearing loss and the ability to correct it felt very comfortable going there and being tested by Dr. Lori Girouard. He was very pleased with the outcome and with being able to hear the smallest sound when he tried on the very first pair of hearing aids he ever had in his ears. Thank you Dr. Lori! And thank you Debbie for putting up with me long distance in arranging the appointment.”
“Dr Lori Girouard is an exceptional practitioner in her field of Audiology. She took more than enough time to listen to the problems I have had with aids for the last 57 years. After a lengthy discussion of comparing various brands, we came up with a plan. I made a informed decision on the Oticon OPN S is the aid I wanted in my life to live a better life. It will be a learning curve once again due to 2019 technology but I know she will be with me as my coach and always be available for me. If you are undecided she is the one you need to see so you can return to living with confidence. ”
