Founded in 1984 after watching her own father struggle with hearing loss, Dr. Ronna Fisher has been nationally recognized numerous times for her contributions and dedication to the field of audiology.

In fact, Dr. Fisher so deeply believes in her life mission to help those with hearing loss, she even created a foundation: The Fisher Foundation for Hearing Health. This foundation diligently strives to educate doctors, health professionals, and the surrounding communities about how critical their sense of hearing is in everyday life.

Driving her passion for hearing is the gratitude she gets from patients she has helped: “At least once a week, I receive a letter or a phone call of gratitude from a patient or someone close to them. The daughter of an Alzheimer’s patient called to tell me her mother’s memory and depression improved immediately after getting hearing aids. . A mother heard her kids in the back seat of the car - for the first time since they were born!” Dr. Fisher joyfully tells us.

The exceptional staff at all four Hearing Health Center locations also offer something you won’t find at other hearing centers – passion. Dr. Fisher insists that each and every member of the team be driven both by passion for helping those with hearing loss as well as what Dr. Fisher calls “a thirst for knowledge.” All staff members attend educational courses several times a year to stay abreast of the very latest in the hearing research and technology.

Hearing Health Center has quickly become the Chicago area’s premier hearing facility. Hearing Health Center has four convenient locations serving Chicagoland: Chicago, Naperville, Oak Brook and Highland Park.

Not only do all four Hearing Health Center locations offer these vital hearing loss services, each staff member takes great pride in being on the leading edge of the latest, most up-to-date hearing loss technology. The Doctors of Audiology at Hearing Health Center are highly respected and trusted for the personalized service provided to every patient who walks through their doors. Hearing Health Center provides a number of services for hearing and balance disorders, including:

Comprehensive Hearing Assessments
Diagnosis and Treatment of Balance and Vestibular Disorders
Prescription and tuning of all hearing instruments and personal communication devices
Beta test site offering latest technological innovations prior to national distribution

If you live in the Chicago area and have concerns about your hearing or that of someone you love, schedule an appointment for an evaluation. As Dr. Fisher explains, “You are so proactive about your health. You have your blood pressure and your cholesterol tested regularly. You get your eyes and your heart checked. Yet you probably haven’t had a hearing test since you were in the third grade. You need a baseline hearing exam now.”
