Michael MacDonald,
LHIS
Licensed Hearing Instrument Specialist
Michael MacDonald was born in Guam USA but has lived in Hawaii, California, Greece, Spain, Florida, and Canada. He's been a proud resident of New Mexico since 1995.
At age 55, Michael began having problems hearing his wife’s voice in noisy environments. Having a friend in the hearing aid industry, he got his first set of hearing aids and was thoroughly disappointed. In a restaurant, all he could hear was background noise and still couldn’t understand his wife.
He finally found a better solution, hearing aids that would let him control the microphones; by turning down background noise and focusing on his wife. Having shown an interest and understanding of how hearing aids can work, the company owner asked him if he would be interested in working in the hearing industry. He was considering a life change anyway and accepted the offer.
After completing a two-year apprenticeship and passing his state practical and written exams, he continued to work with the large company for four years. Eventually, he decided he wanted to have more freedom in the amount of time he spent with each patient.
In order to be able to provide superior service, he opened New Mexico Hearing Aid & Tinnitus Center.

“My first visit with Michael was most successful. He was very caring and professional explaining in great details the reason for my hearing loss. I did not expect that I would leave Michael’s office after my first visit wearing my brand new hearing aids all day without any problems. ”
“I really appreciated the time and attention Michael took to explain everything to me about how the hearing aid works (AND the ear!) and he took time to answer all my questions fully. What a delightful experience!”
