The Hearing & Dizziness Clinic has opened in its new location and they celebrated their expanded clinic last Friday.


The clinic is now located at 285 Sandwich St. S. after moving from their former location at the plaza at 503 Sandwich St. S. in Amherstburg. Owner and doctor of audiology Bernice McKenzie said they are enjoying their larger Amherstburg location.


“We needed more space,” McKenzie explained. “Our old space was cramped. We were working on top of each other We needed something bigger.”


As the staff grew, more space was needed. McKenzie said they also like the fact they are closer to the centre of downtown, as they have some clients who walk or take scooters to appointments.


The Hearing & Dizziness Clinic has 12 employees overall and five at the Amherstburg location. The clinic also has locations in Windsor, Essex and LaSalle.

“Everyone loves it so far,” she said of the new location.


McKenzie said she started the clinic as Amherstburg Audiology but the name changed when they opened out-of-town locations. The Amherstburg location has been housed in a few different spots, but they hope they have settled on a final location.


“This is my home,” she said of Amherstburg. “This is where I want to work.”


Among the services offered are tinnitus treatments, vertigo treatment, hearing loss treatment, cognitive screenings, ear wax removal and aural rehabilitation.


The Hearing & Dizziness Clinic is also hosting a seminar on dementia prevention with guest speaker Nashlea Brogan Nov. 6 at Pointe West Golf Club. Attendees receive free registration for Lace AI, their aural rehabilitation program. 


People can reserve a free seat at hearinglossanddementia.ca or by calling 226-773-1007.


Deputy Mayor Chris Gibb noted it was not only a celebration of the clinic’s new location, but of their 15 years of service to the Amherstburg community. He cut the ribbon as Mayor Michael Prue was away at a conference. 


Gibb noted the growth of the clinic and also pointed out the four locations.

“It’s a real Amherstburg success story,” said Gibb.
