Our Approach
Dr. Leah Wilkinson Keylard Au.D., at the Key Hearing Audiology and Balance Clinic has been practicing since 1999 and knows how critical communication is to your lifestyle. Hearing is the primary way most people communicate. Through our hearing we enjoy conversation, music, and entertainment. Most importantly, it's how we relate to friends and loved ones. It's also how we are alerted to alarms, doorbells, telephones, or emergency related sounds.
Who We Are
Many times people are told to get a hearing aid by the doctor or family member, only to be intimidated or misdirected due to the overwhelming confusion of options available. They feel obligated to wade through the mess of marketing and propaganda surrounding hearing aids in an attempt to find the appropriate device for them that fits their budget and comfort.
Dr. Leah Wilkinson Keylard Au.D. CCC-A FAAA, the Clinical Audiologist at Key Hearing, likes to take the guesswork and mystery out of hearing aids. This is accomplished through close examination by a highly qualified Clinical Audiologist. This allows Key Hearing to address your total hearing health. We believe in quality care that includes time for questions to be asked AND answered. We are a "no pressure" clinic, providing information and education about your total hearing health.
Our Story
Located in Renton (near Valley Medical Center, Kent, and Tukwila) in the Washington State Seattle-area, the Key Hearing Audiology Hearing and Balance Clinic utilizes state of the art audiology and vertigo testing hardware and equipment, and has a highly skilled and patient-oriented staff.
