My father started this practice in 1975. By 1999 I was here working alongside him. Today, my sister and I own and operate the practice. We are a family business through and through.
There is always more to learn in this field, and I've worked hard to bring all the latest hearing technology and research to my patients. Growing up locally, I am proud to service those in my community. We are continuously developing to bring the best care to our patients, striving to make them feel heard, cared for, and leaving hearing better than when they came in.

“Mr. Parker was great he made me feel so comfortable as I was a bit nervous. He explained everything to me clearly and concise, the testing and the results. He took his time with me to have a discussion about my symptoms before we even started the testing phase. I would 100% recommend the Parker Hearing Institute.”

“Everyone in this practice is outstanding. Dr. Josh Parker is amazing. He had to redo the casts/molds for my hearing aids. For six years they have answered every need whether an emergency, hearing aid stuck in ear, or routine. They are all consummate professionals. ”

“I noticed slight hearing loss in my right ear after I turned 50. Parker Hearing in San Pedro was recommended by my Doctor. Sunny is a real professional along with the staff in Torrance. They accepted my Medi-cal Ins. I received the hearing aid Dec. 8, 2016, and am very excited about the outcome. I would highly recommend this Hearing Center.”
