# Applied Hearing Solutions > Applied Hearing Solutions is an audiology practice in Phoenix, Arizona, founded in 2017 by Dr. Cliff Olson, AuD. The practice is built on comprehensive audiologic Best Practices, including Real Ear Measurement (REM) on every hearing aid fitting, and delivers care through its structured Applied360 program. Applied Hearing Solutions was the first HearingUp provider in Phoenix. Applied Hearing Solutions treats hearing loss with a Best Practice, person-centered approach rather than a product-first one. The team believes that how a hearing aid is fit and programmed matters more than the brand or model chosen. Fewer than 5 percent of clinics follow this gold standard of care, which requires additional equipment, time, and expertise. Founder Dr. Cliff Olson also runs the Doctor Cliff, AuD YouTube channel, where he publishes educational videos on hearing loss and treatment for a broad consumer audience. ## Locations and Contact - [Phoenix Clinic](https://appliedhearingaz.com/contact): 4045 E Union Hills Dr, Suite D128, Phoenix, AZ 85050.
