It was a great experience from start to finish. I checked in with Lesa at the front desk. Because I had all of the paperwork filled out when I got there she passed my on to Dr. Hillard. She did some testing and we talked hearing aides. Im only 60, I wasnt expecting having to do this so early. Dr. Hillard explained everything so clearly and answered all my questions. I walked out with a test pair. This is only about 10 hours later but I am so happy I was inspired to post. It was easy, seamless, everyone was so kind and the best thing... I can hear. I havent said huh once today. Nobody has repeated anything and I kind of forgot they were in. Dont hesitate, give it a try. No money exchanged hands, they are willing to work with you until you are happy with your hearing aides. Its not only a gift to yourself, its a gift to your family members. I can actually hear my 3 year old granddaughter clearly for the first time. Thank you EA&HS
Today was my first appointment at Eastside Audiology & Hearing services. The office was very pleasant and the receptionist very cordial. My appointment began right on time, and Dr. Hillard was quite welcoming, yet professional.I was given a very thorough hearing test. I have had several hearing tests previously and this one was more extensive than any of the others. The office has the most-up-to date equipment so that immediately after the test was complete, we sat down and reviewed the results on paper as well as on a computer monitor. Dr. Hillards explanations are clear and she is very patient in describing her interpretations of the test results.Her explanations and recommendations matched my own hearing experience -- meaning that I was ready to take the next step to select the most appropriate hearing aid for my condition. Once again Dr. Hillard was thorough in explaining all of the options and taking the time for me to test several models until I felt comfortable with one.Though I dont yet have the new hearing aids, I can describe the process for selecting them was first rate.
Lovely front desk staff and very patient & helpful doctors at this facility. Scheduling was easy and the staff were very communicative. The doctor answered all of my questions and took the time to explain everything. I felt really comfortable and not rushed at all. Overall, I couldnt have asked for a better experience! Looking forward to returning if ever needed. Thank you!
Excellent staff!! Dr. Hillard is kind, patient and so knowledgeable! Carl the audiology assistant was very informative. Lesa, patient coordinator, is always professional and helpful. I have such a great experience whenever I go there!!
About 5 years ago I called Eastside Audio for help. Lost most of my hearing at17, heck it does not not hurt, so what. After 50 years I started the journey to discover what I had missed. The people there are GREAT. They take the . Today I received new equipment and look forward to enjoying the sounds around me
I felt valued from the moment I made my first appointment. Dr. Kingham takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and encourages me to be a fully invested partner in my care. Everyone at the practice is friendly, knowledgeable and supportive.
All the personnel at Eastside Audiology are professional and highly skilled. They did a great job in fitting me with hearing aids that really made a huge impact on my ability to understand conversations as well as listen to the radio/TV.Highly recommended.
Great experience. After a decade of ringing in my ears, they were able to make it nearly completely go away and improve my hearing as well. I wish I would have went to see them years ago.
I love the warm, friendly atmosphere of this place and the staff are amazing! I feel like they really care about me and Im always able to pop in for hearing aid supplies and schedule an appointment with my audiologist!
We had a positive experience with Eastside Audiology, my 12 year old daughter felt comfortable throughout and we got the results at the end of the appointment. We would recommend Dr Hillard to others.
I had my ear wax removal service done at Eastside Audiology & Hearing Services just a few days ago. Dr. Kingham was very professional and patiently explained the procedure before getting my ears fixed. Overall, every employee I met with in the office are very polite. I would highly recommend this office to everyone who needs a hearing service!
Always outstanding service! I have appreciated their professional approach and personal touch to their business. All of my experiences have been great and would never go anywhere else. Thank you Dr. Kingham!
Came in for a cleaning and greeted with a smile and conversation with Leesa. Audiologist’s warm smile and explanation for what she did had me leaving comfortable and thankful for going in
Dr. Kingham is THE BEST of The Best! Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and highly respected in her field, she genuinely cares about her patients and will leave no stone unturned to find the best solution to hearing impairment. I greatly appreciate Dr. Kingham’s thoroughness and the time she gives explaining in layman’s terms complicated hearing issues. And Lesa at the front desk is delightful and very helpful! Leaving my appointment I always feel like one-of-the-family. Dr. Kingham, and Eastside Audiology staff, YOU ROCK‼️
Everyone was great in this office. Lesa followed up consistently regarding the appointment and documentations I need to have ready for them to save time. Dr. Kingham explained in great detail what I needed to know about hearing, functions of our ear, how and what can affect it and how each type of hearing aids can help us based on our personal situation. I highly recommend it
Great experience! Lesa the patient care coordinator was so friendly and Dr. Hillard was great. Very thorough and really informative. Would recommend!
Always great service. They’ll get the job done whatever it takes.
Great place with super knowledgeable and nice people.
Very professional service with a human touch. They provide excellent audiology and technical advice and have improved my hearing and life in a significant way.
Eastside has been awesome since its inception nothing but great. In the last few years, with new ownership, theyve excelled even more so.
Eastside Audiology has the BEST staff and doctors.They are very knowledgeable and offer many choices in hearing aids. I have been a client for over 14 years and have never had a problem with making an appointment or getting service when I need it. You will love them as much as I do.
The service was prompt; the audiologist was thorough and explained things carefully and in terms easily understood. Overall, excellent service.
Very professional. They made me feel comfortable about having to get a hearing aid. No one wants to admit that they need a hearing aids. Everything was explained to me and that really helped. Now I am actually looking foreword to getting the hearing aids.
I have been going to Eastside Audiology since they first opened! I followed my audiologist there when she opened the business even though I live in Lynnwood and they are in Issaquah. They staff is very nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend trusting your hearing to them.
Excellent COVID protocol (limited capacity, masks on, sanitation available), supremely friendly staff, and quality care. I had not had my hearing checked since being a child but felt comfortable through the entire process. After many unpleasant experiences in medical offices, and more so since the pandemic (granted add’l stress & proximity to exposure could make anyone unpleasant I think), visiting Eastside Audiology was a soothing balm, very very pleasant for being in a doctor’s office under these circumstances. Would highly recommend to anyone concerned about their hearing health!
I was fooled by a corrupt and untrue rating. First time using hearing aid, any issues I have their response was you have to live with it.The worst case is, they gave me a hearing aid as temporary with wrong color and wrong size, now they refused to replace them with what they have promised. Already the right side hearing aid stop working, I wouldnt go back to them or recommend any one.Very bad experience!sorry I forgot to put my name on the original review.Yohannes Yohannes.Eastside Audiology at least they have admitted the way the case was handled as wrong.Now you have my name prove the case.
Michelle was great and very informative. Ive been to other companies and this is by far the best7 yrs ago I bought the best ones made and they only worked for about a year, uncomfortable and spotty work.the new ones are so much more comfortable and easy to adjust thru my phone
Hearing aids suggested and purchased are the best I hae ever had, they work for me and fit my lifestyle. Doctor and assit. explained everything in a casual and professional manner. They are my go to company for my hearing.
Fantastic staff and medical professionals. Dr. Kingham, Carl and Lesa are the best! I love the support and quick answers to questions I had about my new hearing aids. Thank you for everything!
Dr. Kingham was amazing. The doctor I have seen for anything. What I really liked most, was she took time at the beginning of the appointment to tell me exactly what she was testing and why. Testing was smooth, simple and clear (pun intended). As I was going through the process, she explained each step along the way and patiently answered my questions. Her bedside manners are the best I have witnessed in my many years of Dr. visits. I highly recommend Eastside Audiology and especially Dr. Kingham!
My experience with Eastside Audiology & Hearing Services was exceptional! Everything from scheduling, consultation, testing and diagnostics, the fitting appointment and even aftercare was remarkable. So much so that I gladly make the 40-mile trip when other clinics are closer. I tried several places during my search for better hearing solutions (Costco, two local Puyallup WA clinics). No one else offered the full services like Eastside. Specifically, real ear measurement during fitting appointment to make 100% sure they match the setting of your aides to the correction discovered during a very thorough audiology exam. I almost forgot, the testing both was the best I have ever seen, when the door closed, it was absolutely silent except for the Audiologist instructions and the tones coming from the test equipment.I am a lifetime customer and it is very true saying... you get what you pay for. And when it comes to me hearing clearly at work meetings, family outings in noisy environments, conversations with all the important people in my life or even nature walks, you cant put a price on really hearing and engaging in life again! Thank you to everyone at Eastside for giving me quality service and my ability to great hearing back! Just go to Eastside and get the best hearing available!
Eastside audiology are the best. I have been their client for the past 15+ years. Recently I added on a blue tooth streamer for my hearing aid. They let you try out new equipment before you commit. The staff are super friendly, extremely helpful, very astute and always willing to help. I will recommend Eastside Audiology without hesitation. Dr. Hillard and her staff are the best.
Lesa Larson did a great job with respect to scheduling an appointment and coordinating with me. Overall experience of diagnosis and treatment was excellent too. Dr. Kingham did a good job of educating me and making me comfortable throughout the process.
Discovered via the Dr Cliff Approved audiologist program, Dr Kingham is smart, considerate, really does follow industry best practices (including REM), offers fair value and is fully aware of the latest tech and trends. By far the best audiologist I have ever used. Thanks for a great service experience and result all round.
I saw Dr. Hilliard for hearing aids. She is very professional and I’m happy with what she prescribed and programmed. The office is very COVID compliant and efficient. Highly recommended if you want the right hearing aids for you.
Excellent costumer services and quality work. I will recommend to everyone who having problems with hearing.
Thorough and detail oriented assessment, friendly and professional. Great facility and team members!
I am happy to recommend Eastside Audiology. Dr. Kingham’s office and staff are incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgable. Great location, lots of free parking and first class service, very happy with my overall experience.
If you want an audiologist you can trust who cares about your hearing more than just selling you something, Dr. Kingham needs to be your audiologist.
Very welcoming staff for my first ever hearing exam. The doctor led me through every step and explained the results fully. I’d highly recommend to anyone on the Eastside. Was a very comfortable process.
I would highly recommend Eastside Audiology as the go to place to have your hearing accessed. I was not rushed through the process, and all of my questions were answered.
Excellent service, always with a smile. EA is a professional business with a highly knowledgeable staff.
Great service!
I took my mother the see Dr. Hilliard, who gave her a very thorough hearing evaluation, followed by a detailed discussion of the results and her options for hearing aids.Dr. Hilliard was very kind, patient, and professional, and she listened carefully to what my mother told her, with the goal of finding the best instrument that would meet her needs without her spending a fortune.I was extremely impressed that she did not encourage my mother to purchase the most expensive models. Instead, she appeared genuinely interested in finding her the best product for her, at the lowest price possible. She even gave my mother the option of simply reconditioning her old units, if they were still functional. Dr. Hilliard is clearly a very caring, thorough, and knowledgeable audiologist, and I feel very confident entrusting my mother’s hearing to her care.
Super experience. My concerns were addressed, solutions agreed to and I am happier than I have been in awhile!
This was a great place for my hearing aid fitting. Very nice and professional.
I have been with Eastside Audiology for a number of years and continue having superb service. The staff is very patient oriented and goes out of their way to support their patients needs. Most importantly, they have helped to improve my hearing!
Great service, great people! Pertinent questions are asked in order to know my needs. I am always educated by them on testing methods and what test numbers mean. They review with me various Hearing Aid options and provides best fit recommendations. They provide clear guidance as how to maximize insurance benefits. Appointment availability is within a week or so when calling in. Great follow up by the team. Lesa Larson takes and makes the calls and I am amazed that she remembers things about me, and treats me like a friend. She is a great asset to the team. Both Nichole Kingham and Michele Hillard are proficient audiologist who put their client’s best interest first. I would recommend any family or friend to Eastside Audiology & Hearing Services.
Very well run clinic. Much more knowledgeable and helpful than other Audiologists that I have seen. I highly recommend
I’ve been a customer, or patient, of Eastside Audiology since the clinic opened in 2005. Through my association with Eastside Audiology, my hearing has gotten better over the years. What I mean is that, as hearing aid technology has improved, my hearing has improved also. I’m 100% pleased with my experience at Eastside Audiology. Lesa at the front desk makes each visit a pleasure. Michelle and the other audiologists are outstanding. They have the skill and care that it takes to help people hear better. With better hearing, life is more enjoyable.
I was impressed with the level of care and after only three days I am very pleased with the choice of hearing aid(s) the Doctor advised, she was very thorough and gave good advice.
The team at Eastside Audiology is amazing! Everyone wants to help you. Starting with Lesa at the front desk; Being helped by Carl the Audiology Assistant; Getting professional guidance from their amazing team of doctors (mine is Dr. Kingham). They all work together as a team to provide you with the best professional guidance to fit your specific needs. I cant give them any higher recommendation.
Whether you need a baseline hearing screening or have hearing loss, do yourself a favor and skip the box store. Dr. Kingham is excellent in her field. I have learned so much, and it has been a pleasure working with everyone at ES Audiology. I highly recommend this office. They will take good care of you!
These guys are great. I live primarily in California and come to Issaquah to see our grandchildren. I have purchased my last set of hearing aids there and they have helped me more than my previous ones. On my last visit for cleaning they found that I had lost a hearing aid dome in one ear. They removed the dome and the earwax that had built up on the dome. I left hearing and feeling better. The entire crew are personal and professional. I strongly recommend them.
Had an appointment with Dr. Kingham for tuning my Hearing Aids with Rear Ear Measurements. Very professional and Dr.Kingham and the staffs were really kind and professional. Dr. Kingham is open for all the questions we have, followed up on the fit and comfort and carried over adjustments by providing new appointments and remote sessions. Really loved the hospitality here. I will recommend here for any Hearing Aids and tests to be done.
Dr. Kingham is the most thorough and caring audiologist Ive been to. She is so down to earth. She makes you feel comfortable and so does the office staff. More importantly, she isnt a salesperson out to make a buck. After experiences with other audiologists, I feel confident in saying she is a trusted, honest and thorough person. Hearing loss is a serious thing and patients need this type of care, not a drive-through, here you go, try that approach. I will always drive the extra miles to get there.
I have received great care for my hearing needs at Eastside Audiology and Hearing Services. The staff are very friendly and attentive to my needs. I knew I had some hearing loss, but had not idea had bad it realy was. The care I have received here has been excellent.On top of that, I enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee in their lobby.
Wonderful, and excellent service. My hook to my hearing aid broke and I was able get in and get a repair. Very professional staff and clean clinic.
Very knowledgeable and friendly people. They make it easy to take care of my hearing aid needs.
Its the ONLY place to go for hearing in Issaquah. I recommend them for ANYthing to do with hearing. They are very professional and pleasant to work with.
Very friendly, personalized service from the moment I walk into the office until the time I exit. Professional, high quality audiology examination and advice. I value Eastside Audiology and highly recommend them.
These people are thorough, professional, and helpful. They have continued to give me excellent care and attention throughout the years. They are also very friendly and compassionate to those with hearing loss. Losing your hearing as you age is a big change in your life-skill abilities. They help patients adjust in lots of little ways. They make it all easier.
Friendly, helpful staff. Lesa greets people warmly and is knowledgeable and efficient. Complimentary coffee is nice while you wait. Dr Borders retired but Dr Hillard is great also - patient, friendly, and willing to answer questions with kindness and compassion. I once considered going to someone closer to my home but found that my experience at Eastside couldn’t be beat and decided it’s worth going out of my way for.
Eastside Audiology & Hearing Services is always professional, courteous, and concerned about patient health and safety. I highly recommend this local small business in historical downtown Issaquah.
Eastside Audiology LISTENS - So thankful for the capable staff and doctors at Eastside Audiology. Reliable, helpful, caring and professional they diligently listen the to hearing aid needs of my elderly mother and take care of her appropriately and provide good value for services received. Thank You Eastside Audiology!
They are organized, punctual. professional, knowledgeable, and they clearly enjoy their work. So I feel comfortable Im getting quality care.
Being at Eastside Audiology with Dr. Kingham is like visiting family, you almost think you have been there before, such is the niceness of all the people. The thoroughness and professionalism are impressive too.
Thoughtful, thorough service and care delivered cheerfully by excellent staff. Highly recommended!
I’ve been a patient here for a few years. Everyone in the office is exceptional at what they do. Super friendly and nice as well as knowledgeable about insurance at the front desk. The doctors always help me understand the new ways to cope with hearing loss.
Dr. Kingham is knowledgeable, intentional, thorough, and kind. I love that she always stays on top of current research and will give whatever time it takes to help her clients understand more of the process. Thank you, Dr. Kingham and team! Love coming in to visit.
Absolutely amazing experience considering its something that none of us really want to have to deal with! Thanks for making it so easy Eastside!
I appreciate that you are near and generally available for service.
For the second year in a row, I was told that even though I showed some hearing loss, I didnt yet need a hearing aid. I had heard that a hearing aid helps deter further loss, so I asked Chris about that. She said I could borrow a hearing aid for a week to see if I could detect a difference. I discovered a slight difference and after a week asked Chris what she would suggest. She said she never tries to talk anyone into getting a hearing aid but if my left ear were like my right, that she would definitely suggest one. At that, I covered each ear separately while she spoke and was surprised at hearing a difference. I decided to go forward with the purchase. Having now worn them for 5 months, Im delighted with them. They are easy to wear and I enjoy the way they connect with my iPhone so that I dont need to hold the phone to my ear. I also listen to podcasts that way. Im just overall very happy and good knowing that my hearing will not deteriorate further.Heather Humphrey
I was late and they accommodated me anyways. Everyone was so nice. Would recommend to others.
These smart and knowledgeable audiologists take the time to assess and address hearing problems that may be out of the ordinary. Follow-up is excellent and their willingness to keep working on solutions, and their attention to what you want and need, is exemplary.
The first time I met Chris was more than 20 years ago. That in itself has to tell you that I stick with the BEST! I have seen Chris advance herself as an audiologist over those years. The best part is that she has always been honest, trustworthy, educated (got her doctorate) and one of the best people I know. I hate to think of all that I would have missed if I hadnt found Chris. My life was sheltered and protective before I could actually HEAR. As a result I have been able to expand my career over the past years, with confidence. One of my main stumbling blocks was the use of the telephone. Without Chriss expertise I would not have been able to have a working career. I can only imagine how little I would have accomplished without being able to hear. As for her staff, Chris knows how to hire people that are just like her ... ready, willing, pleasant, caring, and always there for you. Just call the office to make an appointment and you will hear Lesas cheerful and sincere greeting. I just dont think the working world has many of these kind of employees anymore. I travel quite a distance to go to Eastside Audiology, after Chris opened her own business in Issaquah. I just make a pleasant day of it and look forward to each time I go. I truly wish more people with hearing impairment would have the same wonderful HEARING experience I have had over the years. I am so blessed!
This is probably the most thorough and professional exam and follow--through we have ever had. Nicole is by far the most caring audiologist we have seen and she has gone above and beyond to make certain the hearing aids we have are appropriate for our needs.Plus - the office staff is also professional, friendly, and acommodating. We highly recommend Eastside Audiology & Hearing.
Needed hearing aids cleaned an some supplies. Service was quick and was very satisfied.
My wife has been going to Eastside Audiology for 5 years now and swears by them. They are meticulous in their evaluations and then just as meticulous in making sure that her hearing aids are tuned to exactly her needs. So much so that they had me come in so they could create a setting specifically for my voice.
DOCTOR AND STAFF ARE FANTASTIC. I KNOW THIS IS THE BEST PLACEFOR ME TO GET THE HELP I NEED. THANK YOU DDVERY MUCH.
Exceptional audiologist. She is very interested and personable, well trained, and very well read on recent developments
Always a great experience!! Ashley was thorough and explained everything!
Eastside Audiology was very friendly and professional. I called, as a new patient and they scheduled my appointment right away. The audiologist was very knowledgable, efficient and friendly. I will return to select and purchase a hearing aid.
Very caring thorough staff. They really want to make your experience work.
Always get great service from friendly, qualified staff. Recommend that you contact them for any hearing needs you may have.
Friendly service from the moment you walk in. Lesa at the front desk will help you feel welcome. Dr. Kingham is an expert with a great sense of kindness. Ive had several trial hearing aids over a few months and theyve been so patient with me and accommodating. Carl, with his friendly smile, is a patient person who willingly takes on a hearing aid challenge. You dont get this kind if service, maintenance or expertise at Costco.
Been going here for a little over a year and through it all this team and the old team are phenomenal to work with, very caring, very knowledgeable, communicative, and take great care of you throughout the process. I would highly recommend EASTSIDE AUDIOLOGY!!
I have had hearing loss for over 20 years. It took a failed Commercial Drivers hearing test to force me to do something about it. I found Chris and her crew through a referral and found them to be complete professionals, but also good friends on my journey to hearing again.Of course they do the standard practice of audiology, but their customer service is what makes them different. They have a small town type friendliness and have accommodated my emergency appointments, with little notice. I do not hesitate to recommend Eastside Audiology.
The team is kind and helpful. The Dr Kingman is knowledgeable, kind and very supportive. I find that the staff to be very warm and patient centric and appreciate their impeccable level of service.
I was waiting for my grandfather to get done with his appointment and had my busybody toddler there. Staff brought out toys for her to play with and were extremely nice, even though they couldve been annoyed that I brought a loud little troublemaker into their office. Great place.
Having felt like merely a number at a chain hearing aid company, seeing a different person each time I went in and having to explain my situation to yet another new face, I was thrilled to learn about Eastside Audiology from one of my severly hard of hearing friends. Changing to the clinic has made a huge impact on my life as only those with hearing loss can understand. Michele thoroughly tested my hearing, and based on the results helped determine the best hearing aids for my specific needs, making life better at home and work. Whenever I have a question or problem, Michele, Chris, and all the staff, go out of their way to help resolve any issues to my complete satisfaction. They care about me as a person, not just a patient; I see the same audiologist each time I go in; and the entire clinic is friendly and easy to work with.
Cleaned and adjusted my hearing aids. Met all my expectations.
Consummate professionals!
My hearing aids were due for a service. Because of the COVID 19 pandemic They came out to my car, picked up the hearing aids and returned them in just a few minutes.
The staff is professional and friendly
I have been going to Eastside Audiology for years. I drive clear from Lynnwood because I trust them to take good care of me. I highly recommend them!
Due to some Google issues, Eastside Audiology lost all their reviews recently. They had really high reviews in the past. I had minor/moderate hearing loss and Chris was my Audiologist. She is really nice. She provided carefully hearing test for me and let me try different pairs of hearing aid devices for free. It is ok that if the customer does not decide to purchase one. Lesa who is the patient coordinator is very responsible for all my appointments and questions. Overall, I would highly recommend them to the people in neighborhoods need hearing aids.
Great experience. Learned so much about my hearing and solutions for my ear issues.
Worth the drive! Very professional and personal service. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!
