Message from Our Doctor of Audiology
“Hello Winnebago and Fond du Lac County! I’m Dr. Jared M. Drummond, owner of Affordable Audiology & Hearing Service. At Affordable Audiology & Hearing Service, we sell more than just hearing aids – we sell better hearing for LIFE. Treatment for hearing loss is less dependent on buying the “right” hearing aid, and more dependent on your provider’s level of education and training.
Did you know? Not all hearing aids are the same, and not all providers have the same background & training – that’s where we’re different! Our office is staffed with a Board-Certified Audiologist and certified Audiology Assistants at your disposal. Finding the right provider and the right support team is often the “secret ingredient” to better hearing and long-term satisfaction with hearing aids.
The caring staff at Affordable Audiology & Hearing Service are college educated and we genuinely want you to be happy with your hearing aids. We love our job, which is why we’ve worked extremely hard to be recognized as the Best Hearing Aid Center for several years running. Oh, and we’re not just smart, we’re a lot of fun too!”
