Everyone should have a hearing screening at least
once a year, even people now wearing a hearing
device or those who have been told nothing could
be done for them. Only a hearing screening can
determine if you are one of the many a hearing
device can help. The benefits of hearing devices
vary by type and degree of bearing loss, noise

proper fit.
The free screenings will be given this month. To
avoid waiting, call today for an appointment.
