    Worked first with Katarina for a good friend 103 yrs old, she was very thorough and helpful, Ed the 103 yr old raved about the aids better than any he had before. When I got fed up with Costco I went to Katarina for my self! Glad I did, product significantly better than previous. Very helpful, I have referred to a friend! No hesitation on my part!

    Echo Hearing Care is a wonderful place for me. I can hear agin thanks to Doctor Katarina. I love my Oticon hearing aids. And even when I mistakenly wore them in the shower and needed a repair Dr Katarina and her staff did the repair quickly with no charge. Thank you Echo Hearing Care. David

    I cannot express enough how grateful we are for Dr. Katarina Vavrovicova. She cared for my uncle, Jesús Coreas, and the level of attention, dedication, and genuine compassion she showed was truly extraordinary. From the very beginning, she took the time to deeply understand his situation, making sure he felt comfortable, heard, and supported every step of the way. What stood out the most was not only her professionalism, but her humanity. She treated my uncle with such kindness, patience, and heart that it went far beyond what we ever expected from a medical experience. You can truly feel her passion for what she does, and it reflects in the way she cares for her patients. We have never experienced this level of service before. She is not only an exceptional doctor, but also an incredible human being. Thank you, Dr. Vavrovikova, for everything you did for my uncle. We will always be grateful.

    I am thrilled with my new hearing aids: they are comfortable, fit well, and no fuss. But – alas—no thanks to Katarina, whom I visited for my first and failed pair. I was impressed with her friendliness and willingness to spend a lot of time with me, but I ended up not buying them. I waited over a year before I tried again, elsewhere. I couldn’t seem to put them in correctly (according to Katarina, either too or not far enough) and the noise level was unbearable, Now, however, with one visit to a new audiologist, I’ve had no trouble at all. Curiously, both before and after my visit to Katarina, I tested “moderate hearing loss,” but she rated it “severe.” Strange. I would have thought these tests were standardized.

    Dr. Katarina did an excellent job caring for my mother and provided her with modern hearing aids that fit well. My mom is deaf in one ear and has trouble hearing with the other. After a few simple tests with Dr. Katarina my mother is now more aware of her surroundings and no longer feels left out of the conversation.
