Gardner Audiology is incredibly honored to have been voted Best of the Best in Tampa Bay for 2026! While receiving this recognition is exciting for our team, what means most to us is knowing that it came from the people we serve, our patients and our community. Tampa Bay Times readers voted us the Best Audiologists and the Best Hearing Aid Centers
Awards are meaningful, but they’re not what motivates our Doctor of Audiology teams every day. Our mission has always been to “improve the quality of all people’s lives with the best possible hearing.” We operate as a doctor of audiology team, not salesmen, who are dedicated to doing this with compassion, innovation, and expertise in all aspects of hearing healthcare. Being recognized as “Best of the Best” tells us we are fulfilling that promise.
We are centered around a patient-first approach as no two people experience hearing loss the same way. That’s why we never believe in a one-size-fits all solution. From your very first appointment, we take the time to understand your hearing concerns, lifestyle/communication needs, and budget/insurance benefits. Every recommendation is customized because every patient deserves care that’s unique to them. We believe ongoing care is one of the most important parts of successful treatment. That’s why we continue to see our patients through their hearing care journey with follow-up appointments/adjustments, routine hearing aid service visits, and annual hearing evaluations.
Here at Gardner Audiology, we stay current with the latest advancements through continuing education and professional training. We have access to the latest hearing aid technology and provide our patients with the ability to do a free week trial with it, no strings attached (eligible devices subject to change). This offers our patients flexibility and a way to experience some incredible benefits to their everyday life and communication. Our Audiology Doctors update consumers with product reviews on our website blog.
We are the one, if not the only, practice in the Tampa Bay area that works with mostly all insurance plans including Medicaid and third-party benefit providers as we believe everyone should have the opportunity for better hearing. Navigating insurance and hearing aid benefits can be confusing. Our team has always been known to help patients understand and maximize the coverage they’ve earned.
One of the greatest compliments we receive is when patients refer family and friends to our practice or leave such encouraging website or Google reviews that help the community find us to help with their hearing needs.
Those referrals and reviews remind us that hearing healthcare is built on trust. We strive to create an environment where patients feel comfortable asking questions, expressing concerns, and knowing they’ll be treated with kindness and respect every step of the way.
Being named Best of the Best is an incredible honor, but it’s also a responsibility. It motivates us to continue raising the standard of hearing healthcare in our community. To every patient who voted for us, trusted us with your hearing health, or recommended us to someone you care about, we truly thank you.
