Patient Reviews




If you’re considering hearing aids or need adjustments to your current pair, I highly recommend Pinnacle Audiology.



When I arrived at his beautifully designed, well-lit office, he greeted me warmly and made me feel immediately at ease. He explained what the consultation would involve and the types of tests he would perform. First, he conducted an eardrum test using a specialized tool. Then he had me sit inside a sound-isolation booth and placed headphones over my ears while he played various tones to assess my hearing levels. The entire process was straightforward and easy to follow, and I’m really glad I decided to get tested.
Afterward, he walked me through my results, explained exactly where I stood in terms of my hearing, and discussed in great detail the options available to me — including different types of hearing aids. He even helped me set up the hearing-assistive features on my Apple AirPods Pro 3.
I highly recommend Dr. Nelson’s care to anyone even remotely curious about their hearing. He was incredibly kind, thorough, and detail-oriented throughout the entire consultation. A 10-star experience for sure!
