Patients first,
since 1978
Hearing Zone was founded by Dr. Garr Crookston in Pocatello, Idaho. From the beginning, the practice put patients first — a philosophy that has guided its growth to communities across three states.

What our patients say about us
Is it possible that there are professionals who care about more than the bottom line, who care about helping people and about people as people?? Yes, Ray, Dr. Crookston, is one of that breed. Not only is he a fine audiologist, but he'll also help you work out the best solution for you. I'm someone with a recent profound hearing loss and am in the process of dealing with surgeons, a large medical group, insurance companies, etc., and having Dr. Ray on my side makes a huge difference. I give him my highest unequivocal recommendation!

I had great service here! Jessica was very informative and took great care of me upon my arrival. Dr. Ray listened, ran my tests and was very thorough in his explanation of my hearing needs, and their dog was so sweet after her hello.
What a great find! Highly recommend this small owned business.
Support Local!
