Having a daughter who has been hearing impaired since 3 years old was the key to my getting involved in the hearing aid business.  After moving to Gallipolis over 16 years ago I starting working for my daughter’s audiologist, it was during those three years there that I obtained my dispensing license and started fitting hearing aids.  Thirteen years ago I was able to start my own business.

My business philosophy has been from the start; “care about your patients above everything else, do your best to meet their needs” and you will be successful.  This has served me well as I have had the opportunity to help over 1500 of our area residents rediscover the joy of hearing better again.

Four years ago I was appointed by the governor to the licensing board for hearing aids dealers.  As chairman I am dedicated to make sure that consumers all across Ohio get excellent, professional hearing services at affordable prices.

One of my lifelong dreams was to be able to provide hearing help to people who were unable to afford it.  In 2003 I took my first medical mission trip with Feed The Children.  The two week trip to Thailand was life changing.  I was hooked.  Since that time I have journeyed to places like Nicaragua, Bolivia, Ecuador and even a second trip to Thailand.  I have fit young children who had no hope of ever hearing better, teens who were denied help by their government simply because they were poor and a Buddhist monk who was in his 60’s and couldn’t get help because of his position.

The smiles on peoples faces, the tears in their eyes as they hear, sometimes for the first time in their lives, is priceless.  I have been helped by many of my patients as well as other local residents.  Helping those who can’t help themselves is one of the highlights of my life and career in hearing healthcare.

I look forward to many more years of helping the people in our area address one of the most debilitating problems people can face – hearing loss.  It isolates them, preventing them from experiencing life’s best and frustrates not only the one who has the loss, but also their family and friends.  We have better hearing solutions now than ever before – I can help you rediscover the joy of hearing better again.
