Very professional and knowledgeable along with a really nice staff
Made me feel welcome and felt like my needs were handled with care.
Always a pleasure and informative enjoy talking with the Dr.
Comprehensive and informative. Brandon was an excellent teacher when it came to explaining the hearing aids and the syncing with my iphone.
I always have a positive experience when I have an appointment at Live Better Hearing. The staff and audiologists are friendly, professional and help me with my hearing needs. I highly recommend this business.
Excellent. Dr. Cole is extremely knowledgeable, articulate and personable. Appointments are relatively easy to get and the product selections are many and varied. Overall I give Live Better Hearing + Balance a 10 out of 10. Larry Pekofsky
I really like the adjustment you made on my hearing aids today. Thanks, Joan
Professional courteous service
I can't say enough positive things about the care I have received from this office. The staff is very friendly, the doctor is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and extensive. Vanity kept me from admitting I had a hearing problem for a very long time. I am sorry I waited so long to deal with it. If you have an issue, I highly recommend scheduling an appointment.
It is an absolute pleasure doing business with Live Better Hearing. On a scale of 1 to 10 , they get a 20 from me. Anders is the consummate professional , the office staff are super friendly and and, all in all , it puts them at the top of my list of medical specialities that I, a very elderly senior citizen , must work with.
Appointments always go very well. Everything is well organized and friendly.
I felt well cared for.
Good experience.
Great professional service by the staff.
Excellent service!
Very comfortable.
I was taken on time for appointments and treated with respect. The test was more extensive than I'd had before. The 2nd appointment was with an Audiologist who showed me how to use the hearing aids. They were the first time I'd had ones that fit totally inside my ears. Thankfully they are rechargeable. My son was with me so I could be sure I could hear him when he spoke behind me. I could. Before I had to be facing him and within 3 feet or so. So far I can hear the TV (before I had to stand very close and most voices were still unclear). I am to use for 3 weeks and return with questions and any required adjustments. Thank you.
I expected to have my appointment with Brandon and had even rescheduled to make sure it was with him. No explanation was given why he wasn’t there.
I was pleased with my visit and purchased hearing aids. Now deciding if I am pleased with the aids.
Professional staff. Great office. Super visit.
We are completely satisfied: very professional, respectful, friendly.
Excellent. They are very helpful and very nice all the time. Answer all of my questions and do not rush you like other healthcare providers do. I highly recommend them.
I had a very good experience with you.
I am very happy with my experience today. I was treated very well. Everything was explained to me. Staff very friendly.
The bottomline is that I have been EXTREMELY pleased with the hearing aids and professional services from Live Better Hearing + Balance. My prior hearing aids were Costco KS 9.0 T manufactured by Phonak. They definitely helped when I first got them but over time I discovered my more specific hearing needs. Having a conversation in a noisy restaurant or hearing my grandsons when they were in the backseat of my car were challenging and frustrating. My education and hobbies have been mostly related to technology. When I read about Phonak’s new technology for separating speech from background noise, I began to search for where I could try them to confirm their effectiveness. Reviews of the Phonak Audeo Sphere Infinio I90R hearing aids described high quality electronics that by default operated in a mode changing programs automatically depending on the sounds that they detected. It would be easy to interpret that the hearing aid technology self calibrated and optimized itself for perfect hearing. Maryann Nikander, Au.D. at Live Better Hearing + Balance proved that professional services are also very important. She programmed and adjusted settings to perfection.
Audiologist Daniel Eisenberg was cordial and professional. He recalled details of my visit from five months ago and corrected the problem with my hearing aid quickly and efficiently. The office was clean and tidy. And I LOVE that it is a short walk from the Friendship Heights metro stop.
Great experience. Dr Shelby is wonderful. She explained everything in detail and I felt confident with her recommendations. Would definitely recommend her to family and friends.
Marisa is the best. She is never dismissive and explains everything very carefully. I was very pleased..
Dr. Marion was great. He explained everything as the examination was ongoing.
As always, from receptionist Lori, to Dr. Bruderick, we are treated kindly and efficiently. All questions answered and information shared. It is my pleasure to deal with this office. Gail Noll
