The SaddleBrooke Hearing Discussion Group invites you to join us in the DesertView Performing Arts Center at 1p.m. on Friday, November 14 to hear a presentation focusing on why working with an audiologist can make a difference in hearing outcomes. The presenters will be Amanda Kester and Jamie Landau who are both associated with Sonoran ENTA. Sonoran ENTA is a trusted local clinic which believes that hearing treatment is best served when patients work with a Doctor of Audiology. They will provide information about how Audiologists use Evidence-Based Methods in combination with doctoral-level training to ensure that you are receiving the best hearing care. Join us to learn how hearing treatment is more than just a device.
