One of my personal heroes! No kidding.Â
This guy has personally fit more hearing aids and helped more people hear better through his own personal philanthropy, hard work and foundation, than any other single human being on the planet! That’s why he’s one of my heroes.
I had the honor of being trained directly by him in the fitting of completely in the canal hearing aids back, when they first became popular in the early nineties. I still have a faded picture of him giving me my training certificate. It’s framed and displayed proudly in my lab for all to see.
He has done more to change our industry and help the hearing impaired than any other individual in our entire industry. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
If you’d like more information on the Starkey Foundation, the charity he’s established to help the hard of hearing, just click the link.Â
I’m proud to post it.
