Nicole was amazing. I didn't give tens and a higher number because I don't normally do that in general. It's just a policy, but she was exceptional and she was pleasant. She was professional. She was competent. She was all the things that I look for in an audiologist and I enjoyed the experience. Thank you.

If anyone is looking for an experienced, professional, and knowledgeable Audiologist, I would definitely recommend Dr. Nicole Shields. My husband is 83 and was a need of bilateral hearing aids. We had purchased several other others from different companies that were poor quality and Customer service was lacking. We had an appointment with Dr. Applebaum, who referred us to Dr. Shields. She has taken excellent care of my husband, who provided hearing aids of the highest quality. She worked with us to ensure the fit and sound met his needs. When a minor challenge occurred, she made sure that it was resolved quickly. There are not enough positive things I can say about Dr. Shields.
