Friendly, clean, professional & knowledgeable. Did I mention lifesaver? One of my BTE hearing aids died & they were able to not only get me in within a week but also repaired it on the spot for a reasonable cost. Highly recommend for all your hearing needs.

When my five year old hearing aids died, I was not prepared to spend another $2000 to buy new ones. I took my old ones to Vancouver Hearing Aid Center to see if they could do anything with them. They were able to pump new life into the old pair and it brought a serious smile to my face. These folks really know their business, and their way around the hearing tests as well. The coast was about the same as a couple of coffees at Starbucks. They are real pros.

Customer service is always excellent so I don't mind traveling across town to get there. Appointments are not required unlike several other hearing aid services which is nice when you only need a new tube which is a quick thing for them to do.
