About The Advanced Hearing Center
Combined 150+ Years of Hearing Care in New York City
The Advanced Hearing Center has cared for New Yorkers since 2001, growing from a single office to five locations across Manhattan and Queens. Many of those offices joined us when a retiring colleague wanted to know their patients would keep receiving the same standard of care.
We take a medical approach to hearing loss. That means looking at how reduced hearing affects your brain function, your cognitive health, and your daily life, not simply how loud a sound reaches your ear. Your treatment plan is built by a team of doctors working together rather than one provider working alone.
Below you can meet the audiologists and staff who will care for you, and learn what to expect before you ever walk through the door.
