Hearing Aid

For the fist time in years my hearing aids have been properly adjusted. Jeff really knows his stuff and I highly recommend him.

I went to Dr. Thakkar in the Alameda office after seeing another audiologist and he was able to get the audio gram from them. He took the time to thoroughly explain my problems in a way I could fully understand. Then after a series of questions about my daily hearing needs and desires, he described the pros and cons of several hearing aids that were very familiar to him. He also explained the office visit adjustments necessary to give me the optimum results and the reasonable all inclusive costs for the products and office fine tuning. I was very happy with his staff, his knowledge, his professionalism and caring manner and look forward to great results.

I came here to get my custom fitted earplugs. The staff was very welcoming and happy to answer my questions. The doctor was kind and made me feel comfortable. He is a musician and also speaks Japanese, like me! The atmosphere was one I enjoyed. I recommend.

The staff is very helpful. The hearing aid specialist (Darren) is very knowledgeable when it comes to the ear and various hearing aids.

My hearing issues are a bit unique. I cannot hear at all in my right ear (I have been deaf in that ear all of my life). I met Joanne Brenner at a Senior Health Fair and mentioned what my problem was and that I had tried a hearing aid (needed two) about 10 to 15 years ago and the technology just was not there to help me. She let me know that technology had improved and that if I wanted to give it a try again to come into their Oakland office. My visit to the office was such a joy. We talked about what situations were important to me, and what type of device I wanted (I wanted something that fit inside the ear). Joanne explained the pros and cons of the cros/bicros (that is what I needed) hearing aids and let me try one. I was sold before I even left the office with my trial aids. Joanne and her staff were wonderful to work with and I can now hear whenever someone speaks on my "deaf" side. I would highly recommend Connect Hearing to anyone having issues. Thank you Joanne.

I could not be more pleased with the service I’ve received at the San Leandro Costco Hearing Aid Center. The receptionist there has been amazingly helpful at each one of my visits. She’s friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Very Happy Customer!

Excellent service ,Greg and his staff at top notch.

Personalized expert hearing services, for a price. They don’t bill your insurance, and I’m not even sure what is and is not covered, even though my visit was “authorized”. But if you can afford it, they are well worth it. It’s a funny specialty that perhaps is considered a luxury, which it shouldn’t be.

Very nice to deal with

Dr. .Ehrlich is fabulous! I met her briefly in 2016 for a hearing evaluation with my ear dr. I have severe hearing loss, which has progressed since my 30's. She very kindly gave info on hearing aids, cochlear ear implant, and some literature as well. Most importantly she gave me hope! I recently lost my job of over 30 years and am terrified to job hunt with my hearing loss. THANK YOU Dr. Ehrlich!!

This place is truly great. I was new to hearing aids and Gregory set me up with a pair that exactly fit my needs for my budget. My ears have completely different hearing profiles and he designed each aid (including a mold for one ear) to accommodate for that. What I didn't realize at the time of buying was the importance of upkeep and maintenance. Center for Better Hearing absolutely shines in this regard. You can get in to see someone very quickly. They're even open on Saturday. I could go on but space is limited. I've worked with all of their fitters and each one is professional and friendly. And they never tried to sell me something that I didn't want or need. My neighbor and a friend all bought their HA's here and they also are happy with their choice. --Jeff A

Pearl and John are very friendly and always take special of my Father in Law!
