Applied Hearing Solutions in Phoenix, AZ
At Applied Hearing Solutions in Phoenix, we started this clinic with one clear mission: to ensure that every patient is able to hear their absolute best. We take a concierge approach to audiologic care, combining Best Practice procedures with a truly personalized, person-centered experience that sets us apart from virtually every other clinic in the state.
At Applied Hearing Solutions, we don't believe in the typical "wait and see" approach to long-term hearing care. Our Applied360 Thrive program provides proactive follow-up care to prevent performance decreases before they become major issues.
Over your first year, we provide structured appointments to monitor performance, perform maintenance, and optimize your devices as your hearing and needs change.
At Applied Hearing Solutions, we don't offer free 30-45 minute consultations with basic hearing tests. Instead, our Applied360 Discover program provides a comprehensive 2-hour consultation with Best Practice hearing evaluation and individualized recommendations.
We take the time needed to get a complete understanding of your hearing difficulties, priorities, and medical history while performing in-depth diagnostic testing to create a fully customized treatment plan.
The process of purchasing and adjusting to hearing aids doesn't have to be challenging. At Applied Hearing Solutions, we follow our proprietary Applied360 Fit program—a comprehensive 45-day Best Practice fitting sequence designed to maximize your performance with hearing aids.
Our Applied360 Fit process includes four structured appointments with Real Ear Measurement verification to ensure your hearing aids are programmed correctly to your hearing loss prescription, not just manufacturer estimates.
At Applied Hearing Solutions, we recommend that the first step in addressing your tinnitus comes in the form of a hearing evaluation. Because hearing loss and tinnitus are so closely linked, it’s imperative to understand your overall hearing ability and to try to determine the cause of your tinnitus.
Our Audiologists will perform a thorough examination to measure both the intensity of your tinnitus and the frequency at which it occurs in order to understand how to best treat it.
Rest assured that the team at Applied Hearing Solutions is here to help, with state-of- the-art tools and years of experience in repairing hearing aids. Once you bring your device to our office, we will thoroughly diagnose your hearing aid and determine the cause of the problem.
In many cases, we can perform the needed repairs on the same day, leaving you with as little downtime as possible.
This direct knowledge of the impact that loud sounds can have on our hearing is why we are such strong advocates for preventing hearing loss before it begins. Our patients find they have the most success when using custom ear plugs or earmolds, as these devices are comfortable and protect your hearing during a wide range of activities.
We partner with a variety of manufacturers, including SoundGear, to bring you options that meet your specific needs.
Did you know that over 70% of hearing aids are not programmed correctly? Our Applied360 ReFit program is designed for qualified existing hearing aid users who want to make their current hearing aids perform significantly better.
Through our structured 3-appointment Best Practice refitting process, we start from scratch with your existing devices to optimize every aspect of your hearing aid fit and programming.
Already have hearing aids but still struggling to hear clearly? Our Applied360 Review is designed for existing hearing aid users who want to discover why their devices aren't performing optimally.
Through our comprehensive 2-hour evaluation, we identify whether your hearing aids are the right technology, functioning properly, or programmed correctly to your hearing loss prescription.
Instead of programming your devices according to manufacturer programming recommendations and using the power of suggestion to confirm that you are hearing well, Dr. Olson takes a different approach utilizing Real Ear Measurement.
Many healthcare providers only have one method of cerumen (earwax) removal that they utilize. The Audiologists at Applied Hearing Solutions use three different methods for removing wax, depending on what is right for that patient; irrigation (using water), manually with curette or microsuction.

Hearing Aids in Phoenix
When it comes to hearing aids, the fitting and programming process matters just as much as the technology itself. Our Applied360 Fit program is a comprehensive 45-day Best Practice fitting sequence designed to give your Doctor of Audiology the time and structure needed to maximize your performance with hearing aids.
Over four dedicated appointments, we use Real Ear Measurement to verify that your hearing aids are programmed to your actual hearing loss prescription, not just manufacturer estimates. It's a standard of care that fewer than 5% of clinics in the country follow.

"I have followed Dr Cliff Olson on YouTube since 2016… he does EXACTLY what he says he does in his clinic. …I think you'd be happy with any of the Audiologists at Applied Hearing Solutions, and the office Staff is efficient, professional and friendly. Most important though is that I'm happy with the outcome."

"Awesome service! Cleared my hearing up in a quick session, which was also super informative. Will definitely return if needed"
"Received my new Oticon HA's from the VA… Dr. Cliff has, thus far, spent about 6 hours programming and fine tuning my HA's to match my prescription. …I didn't used to wear my HA's because they didn't seem to do any good, but after Dr. Cliff's programming I now wear them 14 hours per day on average. …Highly recommend."

The receptionist who answered the phone was very professional and inviting. …Dr. Balderas is very pleasant… she eased my nervousness by making me feel very comfortable. She took care of my ear issue and answered my questions. …I also thought it was pretty cool how she showed me the inside of my ear with her camera."
"The countless positive reviews of Dr Olsen and his practice are validated by my experience. I was motivated to finally get hearing aids by his many informative videos. …attentive listening, clear presentation, and compassionate regard for your needs and preferences as an individual. …"Like a friend in the business", but for real."

He gave me hope and understanding with my options…"
"I went to see Dr. Cliff to see if he could help me manage my tinnitus I got after an ear infection. …after my visit and his hight tech hearing test I learned that my tinnitus wasn't that high and bad. …He answered every question me and my husband had and never felt rushed."
