My Dad is new to the area and Dr. Jorge came highly recommended. That recommendation was an understatement. My Dad refers to Dr. Jorge as a "wizard", and "is impressed very time he visits." Theresa who runs the office is professional, very capable, funny, and kind. She seems to know every patient by name.

Amazing experience. We brought my grandfather who is now 91 in about a year ago. He was having difficulty hearing. Dr. Zavala did a hearing assessment and recommended a product. We purchased the set he felt my grandfather needed. After trying for a little while we went in for an adjustment and my Poppy could hear great.. It was great to see the smile on my grandfathers face..As a side note we now realize my grandfather practices selective hearing when its convenient. Dr. Zavala another job well done.

Outstanding service, patient, responsive, supportive, professional! Just "some" of the adjectives used to describe my visits to Norriton Hearing Center. Dr. Zavala (and Theresa) consistently go above and beyond to create an enjoyable experience.

Norriton Hearing Center provided the best experience when it came to my hearing loss. Jorge Zavala took the extra time to understand my needs and concerns and custom tailored a hearing solution that restored my ability to understand speech in noisy environments. i highly recommend this practice for anybody who needs professional help for anything related to their hearing.
