JPB Audiology New York, NY | 212-696-0998

Welcome to JPB Audiology!

Working within the medical community, my practice provides diagnostic and rehabilatative audiology services to enhance communication of infants, children and adults through assessment, remediation and professional training and teaching. I provide audiological and vestibular diagnoses in medical/surgical cases. I also fit and dispense analog, programmable and digital hearing aids and assistive listening devices. Assessments regarding the level of amplification that would be best suited to my patients are generally completed following a comprehensive hearing evaluation. I also actively participate in the prevention of hearing loss through the provision and fitting of hearing protection devices, consultation on the effects of noise on hearing, and consumer education.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
