Sylvia is a valued colleague whom I've known for many years. She has demonstrated for as long as I've known her, that ethical and clinical care of her patients is an ever-vital goal. I'd have no qualms referring friends or family to her practice.

Sylvia is wonderful at what she does and is genuinely caring and interested in you as a person, and how she can help to make your life better through her skills. Thanks for helping us better understand Mark's tinnitus and for sorting us out with the ear plugs, those will really help us. I would definitely recommend West Coast Hearing to anyone looking for that personal, yet professional service.

Went to go and see Sylvia for a hearing test as well as to have some custom earplugs made. It was really great to be seen by someone so caring, friendly and genuinely interested, yet so professional. Was relieved to find out that my hearing was okay - for my ​age group. The custom moulded earplugs are a real winner. Small form factor. Fits snug in your ear and really blocks out sound effectively. You can sleep with them in too - without getting uncomfortable. Thank you West Coast Hearing for your care and professional service.
