Our Team
Our vision is to be a centre of excellence, providing current, evidence-based practices, in a facility with like-minded professionals. We endeavor to serve clients with compassion and integrity, in a collaborative environment, to enhance multi-disciplinary care.
Our Story
The Calgary Ear Centre is a multi-disciplinary hearing clinic, offering unique programs and exceptional care. We provide comprehensive evaluations of the auditory system, advanced hearing aid technology and assessment of ear-related disorders. We also provide specialty consultations for tinnitus and sound sensitivity management.
Our clinic opened in September 2013 in the community of Lincoln Park. Since then, we have been providing quality service to both our patrons as well as patients of our co-located Ear, Nose & Throat Specialists. Through our office, we have the ability to refer internally to the specialists to explore further options for ear and hearing disorders.
We work with all major hearing aid manufacturers in Canada, giving us a wide variety of options to explore for our clients. In addition to competitive pricing, we also offer a number of funding options. These include low-income support, funding for seniors, and financing programs that allow you to pay over a flexible term that is suitable for your lifestyle. We are a vendor with Alberta Aids to Daily Living, AISH, Veteran’s Affairs Canada, and WCB Alberta.
