It is Samantha’s goal to provide the best service and care in the industry to her patients. Whether your main concern is technology, cosmetics, or finding the best solution to fit your budget, Samantha will assist and work to help you find a hearing aid that will meet your needs.

Craig brings over forty years of experience in the healthcare field. His career began as a U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman, where he was trained as a radiologic technologist. Over the next thirty years, he held various roles in medical imaging. In his final decade, Craig served as an MRI technologist, overseeing a team of 20 staff technologists across 10 outpatient clinics.
Service to my community is one of my strongest core beliefs and I continue to serve in the capacity as a hearing aid specialist with Blue Ridge Hearing. The belief that everyone deserves to hear as well as they possibly can, guides my professional approach and is the reason I continue to help the hearing impaired population after my retirement. In my time away from the office I enjoy traveling, woodworking, gardening, and a busy social life with my wife and a host of great friends.
