Mike's Story

After suffering from a loud hissing noise in my left ear for several years, I finally was examined by an Otologist in 2010. My symptoms were really difficult and very much affecting my everyday life. As a result of the examination, the Otologist referred me to Dr. Julie Eschenbrenner at Flatirons Audiology.

Dr. Julie conducted a further examination and determined that I was a good candidate for the Widex Hearing Aid. Dr. Julie patiently worked with me until the Widex programming suited me perfectly. I began using the hearing aid in September 2010.

Since then the program has only been adjusted once and has proven very reliable. I have visited Dr. Julie a few times for various reasons and am always very happy with the results. This program has had almost unbelievable results. The noise is still present, but it no longer is much of a bother, my wife says that the results are practically miraculous.  

I have only one thing to say to Dr Julie and her staff at Flatirons Audiology and that is THANKS!!!!!

Testimonial from J Lundgren

I first saw Dr. Julie in October, 2011 for tinnitus. I had stopped wearing my hearing aides because I thought they made it worse. After consulting with her, she re-programmed them and I was very pleased with the outcome. Over time, I noticed some subtle changes and returned to her office in January. She explained in detail why I had noticed some changes and with a small adjustment in the hearing aids, the ringing in my ears is very minimal. She took the time to explain how hearing and the brain work together and why, on occasion, it may be necessary to make a minor adjustment in the hearing aid. I would highly recommend Dr. Julie to anyone suffering from tinnitus.

Debra's story

I was referred to Dr. Eshenbrenner for a hearing and tinnitus evaluation following a surgery that resulted in unexpected complications. After completing a very thorough evaluation, Dr. Eshenbrenner took the time to explain the results and treatment options. She was very supportive as well as professional. Although I was very upset by the thought of having to wear hearing aids, she walked me thru the process every step of the way. 

After wearing the aids  for just a short time, I had to admit they really provided me comfort from the tinnitus. The hearing aids became the first thing I reached for in the morning-even before my coffee!  It allowed me to relax and be less anxious throughout the day. The aids gave me an escape route to the awful high pitched noise that was constant in my head and I was able to concentrate more easily on the things I wanted and needed to do.

Dr. Eschenbrenner also took the time to help with other referrals in the medical community and made calls to the insurance company.  I would highly recommend Dr. Eschenbrenner to anyone with a suspected hearing loss or tinnitus.

Randy's Story

I have been seeing Dr. Eschenbrenner since mid February and she has made a world of improvement in my life. I have had Tinnitus for a number of years and have read a number of articles about it, but then I found out about Dr. E's program and decided to attend one of her seminars and I was so impressed by her confidence, and professionalism that I just had to come in for a hearing test.

Though I have tried hearing aids before, and was not real impressed, watching her during the test, and hearing what she had to say, I decided to try a pair of aids that she recommended. I couldn't believe my ears!

Within a couple of visits Dr. E had me hearing things that I haven't heard for years. She is very easy and fun to talk with, she seems to understand what I am talking about, and if I get frustrated with myself for not feeling able to describe what I want, she seems to know a few different things to try and usually gets it figured out.

And with that I am very proud to say that I can hear bugs, bird’s chirping, and just a number of things that I have forgotten about and it is GREAT to be able to hear again.

I very highly recommend a visit to Dr. Eschenbrenner for your hearing needs. This is a very professional practice, and if you like to have fun you are going to the right place.   (And she makes the best cookies in the world!!)

Thanks Julie and Koni!  I appreciate you both.

Dorothy's Story

I have had a bad case of roaring tinnitus and found Neuromonics through my Audiologist, Dr. Julie Eschenbrenner.  She started me on Neuromonics in mid August.  I have been using it everyday since that day and have found some relief in the roaring in my ears.  I was told that I probably would not be completely rid of the tinnitus.  Neuromonics has helped me and I will continue using it as long as I can.

Kyle's Story

My name is Kyle. I am a 24-year-old male from Arvada, CO. A little over two years ago, I developed a condition known as tinnitus, immediately after being exposed to the sound of a shotgun blast. I have tried to resolve this condition in every way I could find over the last two years. I tried taking vitamins and herbs. I tried acupuncture as well as craniosacral therapy. Tinnitus is an extremely devastating condition to those who suffer with it. I could hear an intense ringing in my head all the time, and I was extremely sensitive to noises that the average person is not sensitive to. Over time it wears you down, and it seemed that there was no escape from it.

After a year and a half of trying to deal with it, I was completely demoralized and depressed. I was even beginning to contemplate suicide. This is when my mother discovered and informed me of the Neuromonics tinnitus treatment. I began using the device in June of 2008. Not only did it provide instant and complete relief when using it, but over time, it has brought me tremendous and permanent relief.

Now, I don't even recognize the ringing unless I force myself to pay attention to it, and I am much less sensitive to the noises that used to bother me. Also my mental and emotional states are much more positive than they were a year ago (a result no psychologist or psychiatrist could have induced). Overall, I have greatly benefited from using the Neuromonics tinnitus treatment, and I believe many others will benefit from using it as well.

Donna's story

Dear Julie,

I just wanted to say thank you for getting me set up with my new hearing aids.  I have very much appreciated your expertise and the time that you have taken to listen to my particular needs.  The ways that you have found to personalize these hearing aids to fit my life and activities is incredible.  I never believed I'd actually be comfortable and happy wearing hearing aids from morning to night, day in and day out, but I am.  I love how well I'm hearing and my family does too!  Thanks again for using your time and talent to help improve both my hearing and my life.

Sincerely,

Donna S
