Loving what we do, who we are doing it for, who we do it with, and where we do it is what gives us the energy and motivation to get out of bed each morning.
Berkeley Hearing Center is a growing private practice that has been dedicated to providing the most compassionate, professional comprehensive hearing healthcare possible for over 70 years. We are also a teaching facility (University of the Pacific-Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) and LifeLong Medical Family Medicine Residency-Geriatrics).
We are working to grow as a practice without jeopardizing our heart, soul, and mission – helping more people achieve better communication and a greater connection to life. So, we’re always on the lookout for incredible people like you to join us on our journey.
A great resume, exceptional knowledge, skills, degree, and license are all necessary requirements to work with our team of professionals, but a great audiologist, or any healthcare provider for that matter, cares to care.
Our hearing care professionals must be willing to invest themselves into the well-being of those entrusting us with their care, be eager to build relationships that last for decades, and have a willingness to go beyond what is “expected” in order to make a difference in people’s lives.
Our Core Values
Compassion
Treat people the way that we (or our parents/loved ones) would want to be treated.
Kindness
Lead with our hearts and be kind to everyone through our doors (and the world is in particular need of more kindness right now)
Humor
Have have fun at work, with our patients, with our co-workers and with ourselves.
Integrity
Do what we say and say what we do with transparency, clarity and honesty.
Excellence
Pursue perfection. Not to “be” perfect, but to always be looking to learn and improve. Best Standards are only the starting point.
Optimism
Look for solutions and best paths forward, as opposed to dwelling on the challenges. “It’s always best to start early, but it’s never too late to start”.

With plans to help more and more people across the East Bay access the best in hearing healthcare, you’ll receive the benefits of growing with the practice, even leading to ownership of a future location if that is your aspiration.
Berkeley Hearing Center is really only interested in two things: providing the best possible audiological care and support for every patient and the professional/personal growth and development of our team. When we do these things well, everything else flows naturally from there.
#3 – Influence the Next Generation of Healthcare Providers
Berkeley Hearing Center is honored to be a teaching site for two separate programs: University of the Pacific-Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) and LifeLong Family Medicine Residency-Geriatrics. So you will have the opportunity to be a mentor for the next generation of audiologists, sharing your knowledge and expertise.
