This Easter Sunday, remember to consider loved ones with hearing difficulties. Raise your voice gently without yelling, be patient, face them, enunciate & speak more slowly, rephrase instead of repeating, turn down TV/music to help them hear you more easily. We love helping you hear better; hearing loss doesn't have to separate us from loved ones. ~ Happy Easter!

April 16 is World Voice Day. Voices can make us laugh and cry. They convey not just information but also emotion: a baby's cry, a child's first words, songs that move us, blood curdling screams... World Voice Day celebrates the importance of Voice in our lives.
"Professional Voice" makes us of think of singing. However, preachers, teachers, psychologists, politicians, actors, auctioneers, radio announcers, customer service staff, and many more, use voice everyday in their professions.
World Voice Day brings attention to this delicate instrument and how we should take care of it. Hearing is inextricably linked to Voice; we can't produce what we don't hear and what we hear determines how we modulate our voice. "Monitoring" (how we hear) our voice is a term familiar to vocalists. Improper 'monitoring' onstage can lead to many vocal disorders and hearing loss. While we think Audiology is about hearing, audiologists work with performers to ensure optimal and safe sound so they can hear their voice correctly, sing better, and preserve both voice and hearing.
Four voices we recently enjoyed: John Riesen, tenor, Gillian Lynn Cotter, mezzo,
Emily Michiko Jensen, soprano, Leroy Davis, baritone, here with Dr. Dokianakis. These amazing performers sang without mics to a sold out crowd at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts and are a perfect example of how powerful voices are. Powerful as measured in decibels and also measured by the audience's emotional response and standing ovations!

Clayton Maou SanfordAs a former SHS student and more importantly band member I remember how crowded the class room was getting back in my senior year (2013). The band program under Mr. Holtz was probably one of my favorite things from high school. I would love to see the facilities upgraded for current and future students to continue to enjoy and learn.

MED-EL ADHEAR update: "I was able to use the same adhesive pad for over 10 days!" said Dr. Dokianakis who had been using this new technology. "No irritation and I almost forgot that it was there. I was expecting 3-7 days but the pad stayed on securely for 10 days and peeled off without any discomfort or irritation." We are excited to be first to bring to Holland and West Michigan! Contact us if you would like to know whether ADHEAR is right for you.
The revolutionary ADHEAR bone conduction hearing device is a new non-surgical option, primarily for Single Sided Deafness and Conductive hearing loss.
MED-EL USA Stick. Click. Hear. Using a small adhesive pad behind the ear, you will hear better through bone conducted sound! Amazing.

Holland Doctors of AudiologyFor those who asked what type of container and how big it is, here's a picture of the container, for your reference. Not an endorsement of Tidy Cats or a recommendation for cat litter 🐱 ... It just happens to be what the container was from.
