Hearing Partners of South Florida

For over 25 years, Hearing Partners has been a trusted provider of audiology services in Southern Palm Beach County, earning a stellar reputation for delivering client-centric hearing solutions. Using top-of-the-line diagnostic equipment, it accurately identifies hearing loss and delivers effective treatment that helps patients preserve quality of life.

Setting Hearing Partners apart is its focus on delivering personalized hearing solutions. Guided by their tagline, ‘we listen, we care and we partner’, every patient is approached with a custom plan tailored to their needs and lifestyle. The aim is to create a solution that the patient will use and benefit from. As an independent private practice, it is not aligned with any manufacturer, ensuring its loyalty is solely to the patient.

“Our goal is to not just help people hear sounds, but to reconnect with their world and understand life again,” says Dr. Nimet A. Adam, president and clinical audiologist.

Typical client journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation of the patient. Many individuals often report they can hear but not understand, particularly in noisy environments. Traditionally, treatments generally stop at dispensing hearing aids, with little emphasis on follow-up care and patient education on achieving best results.

Hearing Partners starts every consultation by explaining that hearing is processed in the brain, not the ears. Untreated hearing loss reduces the brain’s auditory input over time, making speech interpretation more difficult. This cognitive understanding shapes the foundation of care.

Once the evaluation is complete, the team selects a hearing aid that best matches the patient. They consider the size of the device, the level of technology required and the patient’s personal preferences. Hearing Partners works with all major hearing aid manufacturers, which allows them to recommend solutions that fit specific needs.

After the hearing aid is fitted, the team immediately performs real ear measurement and functional gain testing to confirm that the device is precisely calibrated.

Patients then enter a structured four-week treatment plan, which includes weekly follow-up appointments where progress is assessed, adjustments are made and ongoing verification checks are conducted, if necessary.

Patients are encouraged to use LACE, a specialized auditory training program that helps the brain adapt to hearing aids. With just 15 minutes of daily practice, it improves listening in background noise, rapid speech and strengthens auditory memory.

After completing the four-week program, patients return every quarter to clean, check and adjust the devices to ensure optimal performance.

Hearing Partners has cared for multiple generations of patients within the same family. One notable case involves a patient with hereditary hearing loss whose mother was also treated at the clinic. Following a thorough evaluation, she was fitted with a custom hearing aid and guided through a structured four-week plan with regular check-ups and LACE training. Her hearing improved significantly, enabling her to lead an active, fulfilling life she credits to her hearing aids.

If hearing aids don’t provide the needed benefit, the team offers integrated cochlear implant care. An in-house specialist works closely with top surgeons in South Florida to coordinate mapping, programming and follow-up care after the surgery, resulting in better long-term outcomes for patients. The practice has recently expanded its services to include tinnitus identification, treatment and management.

Dr. Adam extends her impact through humanitarian efforts with Hearingthecall.org. Guided by the belief that hearing care is a right, not a luxury, she has established donation programs for local patients in need and leads outreach initiatives worldwide. Recently, she worked in Tanzania with AMUCTA University faculty, students and local teams to train on best practices in audiology, fit orphaned children with hearing devices and provide equipment for sustainable follow-up care.

Hearing Partners remains the go-to destination for lasting hearing health, trusted for its patient-first approach, long-term care and comprehensive solutions that restore quality of life.
