I was very... impressed with Dr. this office and Dr Marino in particular. Their building was easy to get to and offered plenty of convenient parking. The office was clean, spacious, and even offered coffee and snacks. Dr. Marino saw me right on time and took as much time as I needed to explain my options. I like that they offer a number of different hearing aid brands. Once you understand the complicit nature amongst them is setting prices it is support and customer service that sets some audiologists apart from the rest. After seeing a few of them I'm looking forward to working with this practice and Dr. Marino.read more

I have had great... care & service from Fairfax Hearing personnel, mostly by Dr. Gina Marino, for approximately 6 years now.

I was taken on... time. They fixed the problem I had with my hearing aid. They also checked my warranty and discovered that it expires in 2 months. They recommended that both hearing aids should be sent for a thorough check while still under warranty. I had forgotten that I had a warranty. So, great service.read more
