Audiology Associates - Santa Clarita

“She was compassionate and spent a lot of time with me. ”

“ I first met Patrice through a group formed to help Seniors in the Santa Clarita Valley. I found her at that time to have a genuine concern for the auditory well-being of seniors as well as persons of all ages. As I have slowly lost my hearing over the years, my wife suggested I go see Patrice in her professional capacity. As a patient I find Dr. Rifkind to be, in fact, as caring as I thought she was all along. She takes her time with each patient...from hearing tests to fittings for hearing aids, you, the patient, are her top priority when working with you. I couldn't have chosen a more professional audiologist. I am extremely pleased with Patrice and her office personnel. I highly recommend her!"”

“My name is Pete Gregory and I'm a longtime patient of Patrice (Patti) Rifkind and Audiology Associates. Because of the outstanding care and service I've received here I feel it necessary to share my experience with others. What many people don't know is, there's a big difference between a hearing aid dispenser and a highly trained and experienced audiologist professional. If you've ever been told you might need a hearing aid, I suggest going over to Audiology Associates, because you can be assured you will see a highly trained and qualified professional. You can rest assured you're receiving only the very best care. After wearing at least one hearing aide for over 35 years, I feel I'm an expert hearing aid patient. Based on that lifetime of experience, I have absolutely no hesitation about referring my friends and family members to Audiology Associates. I've had a hearing aid since childhood, but was always advised I needed two. I always declined the second aid until a number of years ago, when Patti finally convinced me to get the hearing aid for my "good" ear. I took a chance and purchased the second aid. I don't think I ever thanked Patti, but it was the best advise I could have ever received. It turns out my one ear was NOT my "good" ear at all. It was better than the first ear, but way worse that I thought. It's so nice to be able to hear so much better than I used to. As a hobby I play fiddle in a band, and the second aid has enhanced that experience, and my everyday life as well. If you're having hearing problems or have been advised to get a hearing test, call these folks and make an appointment. You might be surprised at the results, but I can promise you will receive an professional and accurate evaluation, and if needed, a workable and affordable solution. If it's found you might need a hearing aid, I bet you will be surprised at how much better you can hear when you finally get your aid. For those with hearing problems, a great audiologist like Patti, and a good hearing aid, can make a major positive impact on your life! Good luck, and happy hearing!" ”

“I like that it didn't feel like they were just trying to sell us something. We were able to tell them what our budget was - and they worked within in! Didn't try to sell me more than I needed. AND - they let me try our 3 different sets to hear the differences. That made all the difference in the world to me. Not to feel rushed and pressured at any point. And in this economy, I was very careful with where my money goes! I can tell you though, that as a 'younger' hearing impaired person - this is the place to go if you want incredible customer service and support at the right price.”

“Service, Service, Service! I really appreciate how helpful their staff is, they go out of their way to remind my father when he is due to come in for a cleaning or for new batteries. They provide the total package, and it's made things a lot easier for me any family. Thanks Guys!”

“Dr. Rifkind tried several different hearing aids until we found the ones that were just right for my hearing and life style. She was really determined to make sure I was satisfied and hearing better. The office staff was also really nice and made me feel welcome.”

“The audiologist spent lots of time with me to make sure that the hearing aids she was fitting were the ones I would need. I saw her for a few follow up appointments too and each time she was very patient!!”

“Nice office and my doctor was vary patient. She let me try a couple of different kinds of hearing aids until I found the one that worked best for me. She was also easy to talk to.”

“I appreciated the fact that they worked within my budget, and didn't try to sell me the most expensive hearing aids. I had shopped at other local offices, but no one else said they could work with my budget. Now I can hear again, and my boss no longer complains! Neither does my family! Thank you!”

“My mom got her hearing aids here - I can't believe how much time they took with her (a lot!!) and didn't charge any extra for it. It felt like we were close friends instead of some stuffy doctor's office. If you want professional but personal care - you should go here!”

“Very personal, friendly.”
