"I’ve had hearing aids following a hearing test in 2022. My hearing was much worse than I thought. Dr. Kortney educated me on the overall impact hearing has on my brain health and overall health. That new knowledge changed my view and I’ve experienced the enhanced quality of life ever since my first visit. The doctors and staff at Golf Country are extremely friendly, supportive and professional. They make an effort to know you as a person, not just a client. I’m 66 years old and my life full of fun with music and also hunting all my life lead to my hearing impairment. After many years of making excuses, “People mumbling” and “So what. I didn’t want to hear them anyway” I realized that it wasn’t just about me. I was frustrating others and subtly removing myself socially. I don’t think a lot of people; especially men my age, realize how their hearing is holding them back and most I’m, outing their brain health at risk. Dr. Kortney and Gold Country Hearing really helped me understand hearing health and the roll it plays in a happy, healthy, life."
