So you have had a hearing test, now what?

Ron of Stanford Hearing will empower us with the knowledge to comprehend and interpret the results of the hearing test, a pivotal step in optimizing your experience with hearing aids. Understanding what the results signify and how they impact your hearing journey enables you to make informed decisions about selecting the right hearing aids and adjusting them effectively.

Ron Stanford has over 20 years of experience in the hearing health industry. His passion lies in helping clients improve their hearing and enhance their quality of life. Throughout his career, Ron has worked with both major companies and smaller private hearing centers. However, he finds the flexibility and personalized approach of private practice most rewarding.
