About Us

Hearing Care Excellence for Fort Wayne, Columbia City, and Bluffton IN

Our Practice

Our practice prides itself on taking care of each patient as if they were our own family member to receive the best possible hearing outcome. We focus on continually serving the hearing needs of the Fort Wayne, IN communities with dedicated hearing care. In this process, our practice demonstrates disciplines and values to ensure fair and personalized hearing care for each patient.

Our Commitment

Our commitment to patient care was built around the mutual agreement of honor, integrity and trust with each patient. As a part of the nationwide Audibel network, we aim to provide the greatest hearing care experience possible by abiding to the following standards that define American hearing excellence:

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation

    We evaluate your hearing, communication needs and goals for your life.

  2. Recommend Only What Needs Recommending

    Because we evaluate all your hearing and communication needs, we will recommend a treatment plan that is unique to you and designed to meet your needs.

  3. Clear Understanding of the Hearing Journey and Results

    We make sure that you understand what steps will be taken on your journey to better hearing and what the realistic outcomes are for those steps.

  4. Seeing and Hearing the Benefit

    We will verify that the hearing instruments and accessories that go with them are working and provide the benefit that you need. This verification may be done through several clinically adopted tools such as Real Ear Measurement, Speech Mapping or Sound Field Verification.

  5. Treatment is More Than Just an Office Visit

    We work with you to create a long-term treatment plan, define follow-up appointments, perform regular ongoing evaluations, and any additional care that you may need to make sure you stay satisfied with your hearing in the years to come.

  6. Warranty for One, Warranty for All

    When you work with Audibel, you are working not only with your local hearing healthcare professionals, but also the national network that will honor the warranty and support and service guarantees on all Audibel products.

  7. Commitment for a Lifetime

    All Audibel products receive free cleanings and testing for their lifetime.

Ted Blanford, ACA/HIS

Owner

Ted studied at the George Washington University School of Medicine Laboratory Science, and he has more than 23 years of experience as a hearing health professional. He also served his country for 22 years, including three tours in Iraq.

“I’ve been proud to serve my country, and I founded Summit so that I can serve my community by providing solutions to hearing loss,” Ted says. “My goal is to help as many people as possible enjoy the freedom of communicating with those they love.”

Ted has a personal perspective on hearing loss—his own hearing loss was diagnosed when he was 30 years old.

“I understand the hesitation that people experience when they notice a change in their hearing,” Ted says. “I don’t want the hearing aid experience to be uncomfortable or something that is put off until it gets ‘too bad.’ If someone notices that you’re having trouble understanding speech, it’s ‘bad enough’ to do something. On average, people wait seven to 10 years before they do anything about a noticeable hearing loss. The truth is, hearing aids may be the solution.

“I love what we do, and that’s helping people reconnect with those they love by offering superior service and the finest American-made hearing aids available,” Ted adds. “I truly understand the importance of communication and how hearing loss can affect one’s family and loved ones.”

Ted and his wife, Laura, have two daughters, Chelsea, 30, and Isla, 11.
