How did you find out about Dr. Julie and Flatirons Audiology, Inc.

I had been struggling with diminished hearing for several years and believed it was occupations related. I had done some research on the best way of dealing with my hearing loss when I came across the Flatiron Audiology website. As a result of my research I came to the conclusion that I needed to fight my vanity and move forward with seek-ing treatment. I went through the workers compensa-tion process and through the referral process I made the request to be referred to Flatirons Audiology and Dr. Julie.

What was the reason for your office visit and how did Dr. Julie help you with your hearing?

When I visited Dr. Julie I was very impressed with how friendly everyone was. Her staff was extremely easy to work with on scheduling appointments as well as making sure that I had all of the information I needed to make my appointment a success.

After going through a thorough hear-ing assessment I was given the oppor-tunity to “test drive” a set of hearing aids. Once I was fit with the loaner aids I immediately experienced improve-ment in my ability to hear. Dr. Julie walked me through the process, gave

me detailed information on what to expect and how to care for the aids.

As a result of your hearing aid fitting, how has your life changed?

I have had my hearing aids for about 6 months now and couldn’t be more pleased. I am amazed how my hearing aids have allowed me to hear sounds that I had not realized I was missing. I would encourage anyone who thinks they

have a hearing loss or are missing information in conversations to visit Dr. Julie.

What are the benefits of visiting an Audiologist such as Dr. Julie, and would you recommend her to other patients?

Once I went to Dr. Julie I received a very sophisticated hearing test that gave a detailed picture of where my hearing health was. This was critical in my decision making process. The information about my options I received from Dr. Julie also helped me make the right decision which lead me to purchasing my hearing aids.

Dr. Julie and her entire staff are professional and friendly. They make your visit enjoyable. I would highly recommend Dr. Julie and Flatirons Audiology to anyone concerned about their hearing health.
