We are grateful to our patients, and sometimes our patients tell us how grateful they are for our services. The following are testimonials received from our patients.
- I have appreciated the care given by the Family Hearing Center. The staff is always very accommodating. and they make time to give personal care and attention to your individual needs. It is obvious that each patient is much more than a name, number and just a customer. They are really what their name says, a family hearing center.
Approximately two months ago, I decided to have my hearing professionally tested due to my family and friends noticing and commenting on me strongly favoring my left ear. They would jokingly say things like “you have to approach Blane like a horse, on his left side”. Because my hearing had gradually faded over years, I had adapted and did not realize the hearing loss as much as others had.
On my first visit, Dr. Allred took his time and in a very calm, caring manner thoroughly tested both ears using numerous pieces of equipment. I was really impressed that he obviously and truly wanted to get the most accurate data possible and you would have thought you were his only patient of the day the way he took his time to explain everything in detail and answer any questions and concerns you had.I purchased a set of hearing aids that day and Dr Allred programmed them to produce a result to my middle and inner ears that best represented normal hearing. The problem was, I didn’t know what “normal” sounded like and desired the hearing aids to be programmed somewhat louder than what “normal” might represent.
Again, I was amazed that this doctor not only wanted me to have a hearing experience that was as close to normal hearing as possible but he also cared that the product met “my” expectations and desires as well. Dr Allred was probably overly patient with me over the course of a few additional visits as I was a bit persistent that I wanted the hearing aids a bit different than the programming equipment said represented “normal”. What I have today is the perfect balance between “diagnostic normal” and “my normal”. I am betting that many people purchase hearing aids and then accept less than what is considered optimum hearing to them believing that is the best the hearing aids are capable of. I would highly recommend that more people locate an audiologist with the patient, truly caring nature and skills that Dr. Allred possesses when addressing hearing deficiencies. It can change your life!
Wow! I have only had my new hearing aids for just a few hours and never did I realize how bad my life has been for the past couple of years. To me you are truly a miracle worker for you helped me when you entered my life. I never knew that my life has been under a hidden and a major degree of stress. Not only for myself but for my wife, family, friends and co-workers. One example is the fact people in general hate to have to repeat themselves. Especially those closest to you because they constantly were having to repeat what they said to me not once but several times. I realize also how I would get up and hurry across a room just so I would not be an inconvenience to the one addressing me. I actually would wear myself out at work just for that reason.
I am a Correctional Officer at a maximum security prison farm, and I work as a Security Officer for the Conroe Hospital. I always had nervous sweat for fear I would misunderstand directions given to me either during a Major Use of Force or while assisting in the ER department at the hospital. Now, while I sit witting this letter of appreciation I am so excited how unbelievably great I feel about life in general. I do feel ashamed about myself for delaying so long to have taken the first step in getting help. It now makes sense that my medicine intake and blood pressure may have been reduced significantly if I could have only been able to hear. In fact my TV volume is reduced by 66% from what I normally had it set. My poor little wife loved me so much she never ever complained about the loud sound coming from the TV.
Dr. Allred I could go on for pages how you have changed my life. All I can do is say THANK YOU and may “GOD” bless you. You are too great.
