Laurel B.

“GREAT SERVICE! After being fitted with my hearing aids and subsequent follow up, I thought that any additional checkups would be chargeable. But to my amazement year after year an annual checkup is included at no additional cost. I recommend Lawrence Hearing whenever I can.”

As time goes on and as I also age, Lawrence Hearing is there to make the necessary adjustments to return the devices to optimum clarity. Both Brandon and Don are stellar professionals with the comfort and satisfaction of their customers foremost in their business creed. I would recommend them highly!!”

Gerard M.

“I have really enjoyed Lawrence Hearing. The staff is very considerate, and I always get good service. They are generous and always explain very well the procedures they are using during hearing tests. They also give very good explanations about the hearing aids and how to use them and take care of them. They are always available and ready to answer any questions. I was shocked and kind of embarrassed to realize that I needed hearing aids, but they helped me get over that.”

Lucy B.

“Trying to get a handle on what I needed to correct my hearing loss. I had a consultation with Brandon in the Middletown office. I also visited 4 other providers after that first visit with Brandon. What an eye opener. Brandon did what none of the others did, He Listened to me and made suggestions, gave me options, no hard sell, and his service is better than most. Product line is great and price point is very very competitive. I am very happy with the hearing aids I got and when the wife decides it time for her I know where we will be going.”

Kenneth S.

“It’s a pleasure going to Lawrence Hearing! Brendon is compassionate and knowledgeable, and the hearing aids have changed the quality of my life. Thank you, Lawrence Hearing!”
