Letter from the Director
Hearing Evaluation Services (HES) prides itself on being one of the only freestanding nonprofit audiology practices in the United States. We are committed to providing superior, ethical solutions for the hearing and balance impaired. HES believes that this is only possible by pairing highly educated audiologists with top-of-the-line testing and verification equipment, advanced hearing device technology, and comprehensive treatment plan options. HES employs only Doctors of Audiology; professionals who are truly committed to the field and their patients. Having such a large staff of Doctors in Audiology allows us to have specialists in areas such as counseling, assistive hearing technology, pediatrics, tinnitus, and balance ensuring that an appropriate specialist is available to address your unique concerns.
HES was founded in 1981 by audiologist, Thomas P. White, who set HES up as a nonprofit agency to best serve our patients. Our audiologists are not commissioned so you can be confident that any recommendations made by our staff are made in each patient’s best interest alone. This philosophy has stood the test of time with most of our patients coming by word of mouth, after hearing successful stories about us from their family and friends.
We have four convenient locations throughout Western New York, one in Amherst on Main Street near Harlem Road, one in Orchard Park on North Buffalo Road, one in Williamsville on Wehrle Drive near Transit Road, and one on Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda. We look forward to helping you through your journey for better hearing.
