Local care, close by
San Mateo
San Mateo patients come to us for the full range of care under one roof — diagnostic hearing evaluations, hearing aid fittings with real-ear verification, tinnitus and Lenire treatment, earwax removal, and repairs — without navigating a large hospital system. Many were referred by a neighbor or family member who is already a patient.

Being your neighborhood audiologist changes the care
Because we are based in San Mateo, follow-up is easy: a quick hearing-aid cleaning, a fine-tuning after a noisy weekend, or a fresh set of domes rarely means rearranging your day. That proximity matters more than people expect, because hearing care is not one appointment — it is an ongoing relationship of small adjustments that add up to hearing well in real life.
Rooted in the neighborhoods we serve
From Baywood and San Mateo Park to Hayward Park, Bay Meadows, and the busy Hillsdale district, San Mateo is a city of distinct neighborhoods — and of distinct listening challenges, from quiet residential streets to the constant hum near the 92/101 interchange and Hillsdale Shopping Center. We know these settings because we live and work here, and we tune hearing aids for the places our patients actually spend their days, whether that's Central Park on a Saturday or a loud lunch spot downtown on B Street.
The hearing aids we fit
We are an independent practice, which means no manufacturer sets our recommendations. Patients from San Mateo get a real comparison across brands — Oticon, Phonak, Starkey, ReSound, Widex, Signia — matched to the rooms you actually struggle in rather than to whichever supplier has a target this quarter. If you want to hear the newest Oticon Reveal against something else, we will set both up in one visit.
