Hearing health can have a dramatic impact on your overall well-being and quality of life. Hearing loss usually occurs gradually and can go undetected for years. In many cases, it’s a close friend or family member who first brings it to your attention. If someone has mentioned this to you, it may be time for a diagnostic hearing exam by a medical professional you can trust. The doctors of audiology at Center for Hearing and Balance are highly skilled and medically trained to detect problems with the ear and offer a wide range of solutions to help you hear your best. Sometimes, it’s as simple as having your ears cleaned! Call today for your appointment.

Hey Moms-to-be, we love babies! If you’re looking for a pediatrician, we invite you to schedule a “meet and greet” before your newborn arrives so we can answer your questions and introduce you to our clinic. As your child grows, routine examinations provide the best opportunity for our team to observe your child, detect problems through screening tests, provide immunizations, and get to know one another. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends visits at 3-5 days, 2 weeks, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24 and 30 months, 3 years, and once a year thereafter. When your child is ill, you’ll have peace of mind knowing our urgent care is open nights and weekends. Schedule an appointment online or call today!
