Treat Youself to the BEST in Hearing
We Can Help You Hear Better
Our Practice, Hearing Partners of South Florida, is an audiology practice offering comprehensive hearing testing including tinnitus and balance assessments. As an organization of hearing professionals, we strive to provide our patients with viable treatment strategies to meet their hearing healthcare needs. Our Audiologists are all doctoral level and continue to stay abreast of new technology and treatment options in the field of Audiology. When referring a patient to our practice we assure you they will receive our full attention and care. Unlike other hearing aid practices, we carry all brands and choose the appropriate technology based on the patient’s specific needs. Our practice model is medical based not sales based; our goal first and foremost is to diagnose hearing loss and any other associated pathologies so that the patient can receive appropriate treatment. Hearing instruments are a final option not the only option. Currently, we monitor for ototoxicity those patients receiving chemotherapy, radiation treatment and/or intravenous antibiotics. We work with industry to monitor noise induced hearing loss and with pediatricians in identifying hearing loss in the newborn population. We also work with musicians and sound engineers in fitting appropriate musician ear devices. In addition, we work closely with Allergists and E.N.T’s in monitoring eustachian tube dysfunction and other middle and inner ear abnormalities. Dentists refer to us to manage tinnitus patients that suffer from TMJ and neurologists refer patients suffering from vertigo and tinnitus for site-of-lesion testing such as BERS and VNG to rule out retrocochlear involvement. We encourage you at any time to feel free to contact our office if you have questions or concerns. Thank you for allowing us to participate in the hearing healthcare of your patients.

Parkinson’s Disease and other neurological deficits often cause faulty feedback to the brain which can result in communication that is too soft, mumbled, monotone or hoarse. Because of this, patients with Parkinson's Disease can often be difficult to understand. Our LSVT-LOUD treatment teaches Parkinson’s Disease patients techniques to improve their communication ability and perception of appropriate loudness.
