Of all the reports dealing with hearing aids, the scariest is the connection between hearing loss…read moreand dementia. That sounds like just marketing, but several studies confirm the association. With that in mind, how do you deal with hearing loss decades before dementia can settle its claws into your life? The best, if you have hearing loss, is to get yourself a pair of aids in an industry that has progressed in leaps and bounds during the past decade. I almost did not have that luck. I tried three times to kick dementia under the bus by going to several hearing clinics over the past twenty years. I had to return the aids to all of them within a 45-day period to get refunded. Finally in 2026 I found my hearing aids Shangri-la. That wonderful dispenser of hearing aids is Brooklyn Audiology Associates, which has three branches in Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Heights location, a mere 20-minutes' walk from my apartment, is staffed by "hearing aid experts," as they call themselves. I had the luck to be treated by John, in the business for a few decades, and be helped as well by Annie at the reception desk, setting appointments and even giving the aids a thorough cleaning during my visits. The company goes beyond New York State Law by allowing clients to return their just-fitted hearing aids for up to 60 days, 15 days beyond the legal requirement. John gave me the standard audio test. The print-out showed that I had moderate to severe hearing loss. I signed up for hearing aids, which includes one year of service, for periodic check-ups and adjustments. Plus: United Federation of Teachers gives its members and retirees like me up to $4000 in rebates for each three-year period. (Check whether your union has similar goodies.) During my follow-up visits, I had the Phonak aids adjusted three times until now I often fall asleep not realizing that I am still wearing them! The Phonak equipment is not cheap. This is a high-end product that can last up to four years, with a new audiology test determining whether your hearing has diminished with age. I think you will be pleased with the service you get, particularly important because adjustments may be needed especially during the first 60 days. I was fortunate in that my left hearing aid needed an adjustment beyond the 60 days: no problem here. Chances are you will be set up with an RIC, or Receiver-in-Canal, in which the bodies holding the chargeable batteries are behind the ear. John fixed me up with an ITE, or In-The-Ear aids, each of which is a solid, individual unit. I received another audiology test a few days ago, three months after I ordered the aids, and discovered that in most frequencies, my hearing progressed to the 0-20 score. That's the gold standard for normal hearing. Don't annoy your friends by saying "what?" or "can you repeat that?" or pretending that you understand what they are saying only to baffle them with your retorts. Get your hearing fixed and give your pals the opportunity to hear your witty banter. I think I am witty since John gets to pretend that I am Brooklyn's Jimmy Kimmel, Steve Colbert, and Jon Stewart, all wrapped in one.

I felt well taken care of by Dr. Feng. I am now hearing better and I had a very pleasant experience doing so. Thank you Dr. Feng!

My daughter saw this place and called for an appointment. From the first call she made and spoke with Teresa the receptionist we knew this was the right place to go. She happily answered all questions and calmed any fears that we may of had for the audiologist. At the day of my appointment Michelle who is the audiologist met us(my daughter and I) there and we could not believe what a wonderful human being she was and how very gentle kind patient and quick she was with the test and ordering the hearing aids. Everything was done within one week. This is a small mom and pop store and they provide personal and very caring service. I believe Michele is there on Tuesdays Wednesdays and Thursdays. If you are in need of hearing aids try this place you won't be sorry! Thank you Michelle from the bottom of my heart!

As a returning patient of Dr. Kwiat, I only recently learned she had moved to this practice. This was my first time visiting this specific location. Dr. Kwiat has excellent bedside manner; she is kind, attentive, and genuinely empathetic. I highly recommend her if you are in search of an allergist/immunologist. She is also very communicative regarding medication follow-ups and maintenance. I work in healthcare, and I personally find her tone to be factual and professional rather than condescending. I noticed several reviews mentioning her demeanor, but I didn't find that she "talks down" to patients at all. She is simply very knowledgeable in her field. If your symptoms don't align with a specific condition that you are assuming you might have, she will tell you outright that the science and medicine don't back it up. Regarding requests for testing, she approaches them from a practical insurance and business standpoint to determine if a test is truly medically necessary before filing a claim or charging you. If there is a disagreement or a misunderstanding, it certainly isn't coming from a place of ill-will; she is just being direct. The practice itself is on the 3rd floor (there is an elevator available). The front desk staff are pleasant, and the waiting room is spacious, bright, and clean. There is also a restroom available for patients. Booking through their website was seamless. Despite my chaotic schedule, I had to reschedule several times and encountered no issues. They provided a reminder call on Monday for my Tuesday appointment, along with several text and email check-in reminders. I arrived 15 minutes early, but since I had pre-filled my forms online, I only waited about five minutes before being called back. The examination rooms are also quite spacious and comfortable. I even had to call the office after my appointment with a follow-up question; they took a message, and Dr. Kwiat called me back just a few hours later to address my concerns. It has been a great experience thus far. I highly recommend Dr. Kwiat for your allergy and immunology needs. My insurance did not require a referral to see her, but I'd suggest calling to double-check your own coverage!
