Our Message
It is never too early to start caring for your hearing health. More importantly, it is never too early to treat your hearing loss to improve your quality of life. We genuinely look forward to meeting you to discuss your various hearing health and care needs and to explore the many solutions to prevent and treat your hearing loss.
At National Hearing and Balance, we offer more than information about your hearing loss. We
offer solutions.
Welcome.
– The National Hearing and Balance Team
Why Choose Us?
At National Hearing and Balance, Dr. Allison Coltisor, Au.D (in New Mexico) and Dr. Laci Le, Au.D (in Texas) are committed to following the hearing industry Best Practices Guidelines at every step of your hearing loss assessment and treatment journey to ensure the most accurate hearing loss diagnosis, and to maximize treatment effectiveness and outcomes.
This, we believe, is what differentiates us from standard hearing care providers.
We pride ourselves in helping you understand 1) your hearing loss diagnosis, 2) its impact on your personal life and work life, and 3) all the available treatment options so that you feel confident when making important decisions about your hearing loss treatment. We see our patients as collaborative partners with our trained, well-rounded audiologists. We are strategically located inside the offices of National Sinus Institute (NSI) so that our
patients can have easy access to our audiologists and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) professionals. This ensures continuity of care while simultaneously giving patients peace of mind that their audiologists and medical team are always working collaboratively to bring them the best hearing solutions.
