At dB Hearing Center, we understand that hearing loss is an extremely personal journey. There are a myriad of emotions, fears, and concerns that occur when a person comes to get their hearing checked. It takes about 7-10 years for a person to notice they even have a hearing loss, many times, friends and family members notice first.
Hearing loss is gradual, losing subdual sounds first like the sound of your turn signal or the beeping of the microwave. This is a journey that we will take together one step at a time. The first step is finding out if you even have a hearing loss. We understand that the decision to come in for a hearing test is not an easy one, and that there are many emotions involved.

At dB Hearing Center we have a passion for helping people hear their very best and for helping each individual reach their full hearing potential. People with hearing problems can find expert help at dB Hearing Center. Our hearing specialists are experienced with almost every type of hearing problem, and they work with you and your medical team to arrive at a diagnosis and develop solutions.
Hearing impairment affects more than just your ability to hear - it affects your quality of life. The interview process helps our practice determine the extent of your hearing impairment and aids us in uncovering any specific areas requiring further attention. Have you been exposed to loud noises in your workplace or while participating in leisure activities?.
Once you have selected your hearing aids after an evaluation, we will program them to meet your hearing needs, based on a prescription. It is also a good idea to bring family members or close friends to the hearing aid fitting so they can help remember all the information that is given and be a support to you.
Your hearing specialist at dB Hearing Center will take a detailed case history regarding your hearing health. We may ask such questions as, "How long have you been experiencing difficulty with your hearing?" or "What is your most difficult listening environment?" Your answers will provide valuable background information.
We keep a supply of batteries for you to purchase in our office. Stop in routinely for fresh batteries. Make sure to check the batteries in your hearing devices often and make sure there is no dirt, wax or debris interfering with the batteries performance.
Batteries that are properly charged will make a noise (a squeal) when cupped in your hand or after it has been inserted in your ear, when you cup your hand over the hearing aid it will also make a noise.There are four main sizes of batteries, each with a specific color-coded package: size 10 (yellow), size 13 (orange), size 312 (brown), and size 675 (blue).

I wasn’t anticipating needing hearing aids, but when I did need them, I’m glad I went to db hearing. Dawn is a consummate professional and truly cares about her patients. Her office is warm and inviting and she always greets me with a smile. I could not be happier with my experiences going here. Dawn helped me through every step of getting hearing aids and answered any questions I could have thought of. Because of Dawn, I can now hear the sounds of nature I didn’t know I was missing. I’m grateful for Dawn for giving me back a piece of my life.

I've had single sided deafness for over 35 years and have hearing loss in the other ear. I've also been to 4 other hearing professionals on the W and E coasts over the past 12 years and Dawn is the very best!. She knows her craft, has the most pleasant, thoughtful demeanor you could hope for and clearly cares about her patients. Dawn fit me with a cross talk system and life is so much improved. I am so glad I went to dB Hearing Center.
