Service at the Ashburn, VA office has been terrific. However my Phonak hearing aids have been unreliable due to unexpected poorly working software updates, parts failures, and nonworking hearing adjustments for restaurant, TV, etc (only automatic setting works for both ears. I do not recommend Phonak Hearing Aids. .

Ellen

October 12, 2026

I was delighted to work with Dr. Zolt, as he is warm, compassionate, and excellent at explaining an important step toward better health. The adoption of hearing aids is a big step - it takes more time to get ready in the morning and it takes time to learn the software linked to the aids that enhances sound in diverse environments. Dr. Zolt's "hearing aids school" made the process fun and comprehensible. I have already recommended him to a number of my friends and will continue to do so.
