Nicole is an exceptional Doctor of Audiology who provided compassionate, knowledgeable, and patient-centered care. She took time to carefully listen to my husband, Don, clearly explains tests and treatment options, and ensured Don and I felt informed and confident. Her professionalism, clinical expertise, and genuine commitment to improving hearing health makes her an outstanding provider. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional audiology care.

This was the second time seeing this doctor at this location and it was not a very good experience...got there for my appointment and was told that they did not see patients until after one and then come to find out they were all in a meeting! They had to get the audiologist out to do my hearing test and the doctor had an emergency and would not be able to see me and this was after they had to reschedule my last two appointments. Would not like to come back to this location...will have hearing test done in Acworth and do a virtual with the doctor from now on...
