"Having dealt with hearing loss for more than 30 years, I am all too familiar with the services and technology that are available to the hearing impaired throughout New England, including at the most renowned teaching hospitals in the region. Dr. Bakewell and the team at Southbury Audiology are the most knowledgeable, up to date and responsive of any practice with whom I have dealt. Under Dr. Bakewell’s care, my day-to-day quality of life (and my wife’s) has markedly improved. If you have struggled with a satisfactory solution to your hearing loss, I would recommend this practice without reservation."

"I met Stephanie Bakewell over three years ago with the fittingof my first hearing aids. Having done some research on the process I was initially skeptical about receiving comprehensive professional care. Dr. Bakewell has far exceeded my expectations in this regard. She has provided comprehensive and thorough services during our entire professional relationship. I make a point of referring her to friends and associates who seek aids. Those who have gone elsewhere relate stories of poor or non existent follow up services. Dr. Bakewell has continually retested and adjusted my hearing and my aids to ensure I receive the maximum benefit from their use. Hearing Aids have changed my life and Dr. Bakewell is an amazing practitioner who has helped me make the most of my experience."

"I was referred to Southbury Audiology by my PCP a little over 5 years ago and met Stephanie Bakewell, AU.D. She immediately put me at ease by taking the time to get to know me personally through sharing some of her personal stories. She made me feel comfortable & confident about her personally as well as professionally. She provided me a solid understanding of my condition and how the advantages of modern Audiology could benefit me. I purchased her recommended hearing aids and entered a 5 year program for her services. She and this program allowed me to return to the real world as a more confident , functional & participating member. I am so satisfied with her services and the Southbury Audiology Office that I have just (2021) upgraded my hearing aids and entered a new 5 year support program. "

"I just wanted to express my sincere thanks and heartfelt appreciation for the difference that you've made. As a speech-language pathologist and school administrator, I've come to realize the impact of hearing loss on a personal level. Your work with amplification has helped me to once again experience the magic found in the sound of rain, the humming of a bee, a quiet whisper, and the gentle conversation of a small child in a noisy place. The amplification, tailored to my personal and professional needs, is truly life-changing. Every day it opens new doors to me to experience the world more fully. Although May is officially designated as Better Speech and Hearing Month, your expertise and personal commitment to your clients can make better speech and hearing happen every day! Thank you for all you've done!"

~ L.S. .

"I really cannot express how dramatically my life has changed for the better due to your expertise. Your incisive analysis of my hearing impairment, which had gone on for too long leaving me totally out of most conversations, has been a lifesaver. With these Oticon aids I once again have no hesitation in participating in conversations. I can hear so much more clearly. Thank you!"

~ J.P. .

"I resisted my wife's urging for at least six years. Dr. Bakewell was extremely helpful, showing me the real technical issue with my hearing problem. But, when I realized that I could have full-time bluetooth streaming in my ear and hear the birds again, it was a done deal. Thank you, thank you."
