I visited Tennessee Hearing with a friend who had an appointment. While waiting I was asked if I wanted to take a hearing test. I said I knew I couldn't hear very well but there was no need to take the test because I could not afford to purchase hearing aids. Iwas told that Tennessee Instruments had a program for low income families thst was furnished through a foundation. I signed up and eventually was fitted with hearing aids and all I had to pay was a donation to the foundation. They have taken very good care of me and I couldn't have received the hearing aids from anyone that cared more about

I wish I could give them TEN STARS! After moving to Knoxville, I went to them for new hearing aids. This is my third set so I knew the drill. But what I did not know was how wonderful and caring a hearing aid provider could be. Mark was so patient and persistent with an issue that was totally the fault of my phone but he refused to give up. It was resolved and I hear better than ever. And as he predicted, I enjoy music now in a way I have not for many, many years. I cannot express how wonderful these folks are. Go see Mark. You will not be disappointed.

I've been with Tennessee Hearing Instruments since early 2016 and they've been great to work with. I purchased my 1st set of hearing aids from them. I moved to another country to work on a US military base (civilian) for 3 years and they continued to help me. I would send my hearing aids to them via mail and they'd clean, service, and send back to me. It was comforting to get that level of service. I'm in the process of getting my 2nd set of hearing aids from them. I recommend them to anyone looking for hearing help!

As a young 50 year-old, I walked into Tennessee Hearing Instruments to determine if my perceived hearing issue was real and left with trial hearing aids, hearing sounds I apparently haven’t heard in years. Initially, it was the completeness of Dr. Smith’s voice, as I experience low frequency loss. Then it was my daughter’s voice, followed by an evening of conversation with my husband, the first time in years not asking him to repeat himself.
This is going to be life changing. It has become so frustrating just living, constantly saying, “Huh? Or What?” or after so many requests for repetition

I took my aunt to Tennessee Hearing Instruments yesterday and was very pleased with the service they gave. They are very friendly, knowledgeable and a caring place. In the month of November each year they help people out that can't afford a hearing aid, if you qualify you get a hearing aid free. They get donations for this program, however the donations they receive are few and far between. This means a lot more comes out of their pocket, and without any donations they may not be able to continue this program. The gift of hearing is such a wonderful gift to have.

The whole staff here are amazing. I can not say enough about them all. They are always very polite, pleasant and it is a joy to see them all. They go above and beyond to ensure that they give you the best service they can. Before they came into my life, when I could not hear very well at all, I just wanted to find someone that would give me exactly what I wanted and that was to be able to enjoy hearing again. Well, they were just what I needed, and they continue to make sure that my quality of life stays at the top by being able to hear with their amazing products. Can not say enough about everyone

Dr. Smith and the staff are wonderful at Tennessee Hearing Instruments. I have known them for several years and they always go over and above to meet my loved ones needs. I first met Dr. Smith when he helped my daughter obtain hearing aides. He was so good with my daughter that I began bringing my mother to him also. Dr. Smith was generous to help me maintain my mother's hearing aides for the last two years even though she had not purchased them from him. His objective is to help people hear. Dr. smith recently fit my mom for new hearing aides after hers were lost during a hospital stay. He and
