Audiologists & Hearing Aids Austin, TX

I waited too long to get tested again until friends were constantly telling me how loud I was talking and being. I finally got the process started then, yesterday I went for my fitting of my new hearing instruments! Paula got me activated and I could hear the rain hitting the building! My smile grew and tears of joy streamed down my face! Paula was so helpful in educating me in all the features of my Resounds, which are very user friendly and adaptable! I feel so blessed!

One of my long-time massage clients recently went thru the process of getting hearing aids from RK Audiology and they were very, very pleased both with the level of service and final customized product.

Thank you, Paula, at RK Audiology! After having some pressure in my ears for a couple of weeks I decided to make an appointment with RK. Turns out I needed a professional ear cleaning from long term inner ear wax buildup that had been caused by using q-tips over the years. I feel so relieved it wasn’t anything more serious like hearing loss. Such a relaxing and informative appointment. They allow you to watch the entire process (if you want to!) through their high tech camera that peeks down your ear canal. Everything was explained thoroughly and I was also given tips to use moving forward. Highly recommend!

Dr. Victoria Villarreal, who has her doctorate in Audiology, is patient and thorough. She understands elderly’s hesitancy on cost and technology but has, through patience and instruction, made my mother the happiest she has been with hearing aids in her 30 years of use. Since returning to Texas, my mother has had their help with everything from testing to repairs to muddling through the insurance to recently fitting Mom with her favorite hearing aids yet, Sonic Captivate (no batteries!). My husband referred us to Dr. Villarreal after she assisted with his getting Lyric in-the-canal hearing aids by Phonak. We are thankful for such a caring conscientious office. We’ve been using the office on Bee Caves Rd in The Schoolyard but the staff goes between locations.

Dr. V, Ok, let me give you my first impressions of the OTICON MORE. Spoiler alert… they’re amazing! After I left your clinic I went to grab a burger and beer. While in the restaurant I popped open the app on the phone and it appeared to have switched to program 2 (complex) and the button for that program was “glowing” from dim to lit. The results were indescribable, but I’ll try. I could hear EVERYTHING but nothing was annoying. Only the sounds I needed were there. I could hear the 2 girls on the other side of the room talking, the natural ambient sounds of the restaurant and not only that, I streamed some music at the same time and could still hear all the other sounds including the dude that called my name when my order was ready, all while hearing the room and the music at the same time at a seemingly low volume. No discomfort. It gets better… so I’m sitting there with this big smile on my face about what I’m experiencing and my phone rings. It’s my wife wanting to know how things went and the devices picked up the call flawlessly yet I continued to be able to hear what was going on around me very clearly. It gets even better… I’m listening to music in my vehicle and because of the technology and the open dome I’m able to hear all the usual low/mids and now the highs as well. I can’t remember when music sounded this way but it’s truly a miracle. Of course when I got home I immediately plugged my electric guitar into my pedal board and amp and I’m still grinning ear to ear. To hear sounds that I haven’t heard in decades is a blessing and a privilege and I’m certain it is not just the technology (which may be the best there is right now), but also your care and the detailed attention you paid to my REM during my treatment today. p.s. The care and attention of the audiologist is the KEY to making any of the available devices work properly. If you’re going to be investing in hearing aids it’s worth the drive to Austin to see D. Villarreal and RK Audiology. Trust me. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I decided to visit RK Audiology to address my hearing loss after they were recommendation by Dr. Cliff Olson from Applied Hearing Solutions in Phoenix Arizona. Doctor Victoria Villarreal was very helpful professional and most of all patient in answering the abundance of questions I had regarding my hearing loss and products to address it. In the end I was fitted with devices that are effective and also encompass convenient features that integrate well with my IPhone. Best of all, RK audiology follows best practices which means they use Real-Ear Measurements (REMs) testing to program your hearing aides when they are fitted for the first time. This assures that the devices are optimally programmed for you particular hearing loss prescription. I highly recommend RK audiology and Doctor Villarreal.

I have used RK Audiology for many years, including technology upgrades every four years or so. Their staff are extremely competent and technologically savvy. I have high confidence in their testing and periodic equipment adjustments. In terms of style, they are respectfully professional, friendly, helpful, and kind. They do not push sales and are sensitive to needs of fixed income clients such as myself. I give them the highest possible rating and recommendation for anyone needing hearing services in Austin.

What an amazing team! They were on time expeditious and very detailed. I had a hearing test done as well as went in for a ear cleaning. After looking at my ears, they informed me that I didn’t need the procedure which goes to show how honest they are. Classy all-around! Highly recommend!
