Read moreI recently had the challenge of navigating how to obtain and optimize heading aids for my grandfather. I reached out to Dr. Tom Bocchino who helped arrange an appointment within weeks. He was professional and thorough while providing excellent patient care for my grandfather. Being unable to hear can be incredibly frustrating and his empathy is apparent. His assessment prompted a referral to a local ENT who intervened further to further optimize his hearing. I know Dr. Bocchino through his various roles in our community and his role as a father and he is a wonderful person with a huge heart. I know his kindness and expertise with my grandfather helped to optimize his quality of life and I am so thankful we have Gaston hearing in our community to help others in the...
