Richmond Hearing Doctors - Southside

“Professional, efficient, overall excellent. Caring staff who looked after my needs and made great suggestions which will positively affect my life.”

“I scheduled to get the Lenire tinnitus system. Dr. Ruth ran a complete hearing test on me and had a deep discussion on my hearing issues. She ran another test and adjusted my hearing aids. This allowed me to hear extremely well. I still have the tinnitus but it does not effect my ability to carry on a conversation without buying the Lenire system. That was the main thing I needed done. She solved my conversation problems. If I find that I still want the Lenire system I will be going to Richmond Hearing Doctors. I am a strong believer in Richmond Hearing Doctors and have recommended them to many of my friends. If anyone needs hearing aids these are the only doctors I would recommend going to. They take the time and listen to you to help solve hearing problems.”

“Contacted Richmond Hearing Doctors about my decade-long tinnitus issue. Dr Ruth performed a comprehensive hearing test to help determine the best possible treatment solution(s). Dr Ruth was so kind, knowledgeable and understanding! Based on the hearing test and hearing questionnaire, I qualify for the new Lenire device/treatments as one of my treatment options. Lenire is the very latest tinnitus treatment option, but is not currently approved by insurance. There was no pressure whatsoever by Dr Ruth to pursue the more expensive Lenire option, just a professional assessment of my condition and possible treatment(s). I've never had a more positive medical experience ANYWHERE! The staff is awesome and the office is beautiful and relaxing! I HIGHLY recommend Richmond Hearing Doctors and Dr Ruth for your hearing issues!”

“Having endured tinnitus for many years and becoming more aware of difficulty hearing people speak, I decided to explore treatment options in my locale. I am so pleased with the services provided by Richmond Hearing Doctors and my audiologist, Dr. Debra Ogilvie. My hearing was tested and we explored several options within my budget. This was my first time wearing bilateral hearing aids and I struggled, initially, to find a pair that worked well for me. Each individual is different and the various brands offer some unique features. So, I tried to express my experience in detail to Debra and she worked closely with me to find the best brand and features for my specific needs. Because I was having difficulty inserting the speaker domes, she made custom ear molds that easily slip into my ears. I am very pleased with her services. I never felt rushed and always felt like a valued client. Her practice also gave me financing information so that I might apply for a healthcare credit account allowing me to pay for the hearing aids in installments. I, wholeheartedly, recommend Richmond Hearing Doctors.”
