Blue Ridge Hearing and Balance Clinic celebrates 23 years
The Bluefield Daily Telegraph profile traces Blue Ridge Hearing and Balance Clinic from its Princeton origin in 1982 to its Bluefield expansion in 1998. Dr. Alan Desmond and ENT partners Dr. Lee Smith and Dr. Rob Jones led the growth, with a focus on balance disorders and falls prevention, aided by a NASA-tested balance unit loaned for elderly care. The clinic emphasizes alternative treatments beyond hearing aids, competitive pricing, and a complete care package with three years of warranty and batteries, backed by a team of three audiologists and two hearing aid specialists at two full‑time locations.
