Dr. Ortiz did the most thorough hearing exam on me - by a long shot - and spent a great deal of time explaining my hearing loss, tinnitus, inadequacies of the programming of my current hearing aids, and how I would benefit from Lenire…but not until my hearing aids are properly programmed for my specific hearing loss & tinnitus. She was also very professional and has a great personality. I am definitely impressed!

Dr. Ortiz is outstanding! Her positive energy and drive to find a solution that works for her patients is unparalleled. I have a complicated prescription and tinnitus. She listens and encourages real-time feedback of how each hearing aid works for me. She’s honest, caring, and exceptionally knowledgeable. So glad i found Dr. Ortiz!
