Andrew likes to be called Andy!
Not only is Andy just a great guy, the amount of knowledge he shared and the education he gave me was invaluable. It took us awhile to find the devices that really worked for me, but the options and thus, the choices he patiently provided to me were amazing. I had not been to an audiologist (in my many years of having to see audiologists) who spent the time and effort in giving me the gift of markedly better hearing than that which I had prior to finding this office! High recommendations!! - 6/24/2026 

I’m posting this review for my wife Mary Alatorre who appreciated Dr Bernard with the Marin Hearing clinic. Great place, clean and Dr Bernard was very thorough with the process of having her ears checked for audio specifics. After testing, Dr Bernard precisely explained the results. I’m not a candidate for hearing aids at this time, but made an appointment for next year.

Thank you Dr Bernard! - 6/02/2026 

Very attentive professionals. I have been their patient for over 3 years. This is a small practice with staff that clearly cares about us patients. I am using high level hearing aids which they provided. One stopped working. I called late in the afternoon, asked for an appointment and was told just come when possible. Next day I arrived in at 9 am. Robin, the office manager, took my devices, tested them, discovered the problem device had a broken wire, which she replaced immediately. I was out the door in 15 minutes. after a few days I realized the new wire was shorter than the original. I returned to the office and Robin installed a longer wire. Out the door in 9 minutes! - 5/07/2026

My experience with Marin Hearing Center and Andy in particular has been awesome. Andy cares deeply about his profession and helping hearing challenged people like me. He's knowledgeable and thorough and I am so fortunate to have Andy as my audiologist. I cannot recommend Andy and Marin Hearing Center highy enough. They are true caring professionals. - 7/09/2025 

Have been seeing Doctor Valla for the past 8 years and the only change is his customer service gets better with each visit. Not only his personal but all his employees offer old school customer service. - 10/17/2024 

I found Dr. Valla to be very informative, intelligent and very helpful plus really being a cool guy. His assistance with my hearing has changed my life! I highly recommend him and his very efficient & friendly office. He will find the right device for you that will be custom made just for your ears. - 10/01/2024 

Dr. Valla and Robin Casper went way out of their way to help with an emergency problem with an my hearing aid. They were willing and kind, and it’s a 100% professional place. Whole-hearted recommendation. - 8/05/2023 

I first contacted Marin Hearing to get support for a hearing aid issued to my 92-year-old father by the Veterans' Hospital Auditory dept. in SF. Although we weren't customers when I walked in I was treated like one. Excellent support by Robin at the front desk who handled our needs expertly, quickly repairing my father's device (no charge). Also, because my father recently had a poor experience with a similar business in Marin, Robin's support made the experience even more appreciated. A simple act that had a big impact and created a new loyal customer. Thanks Again! - 9/18/2022 

An exceptional place: professional, personable, and patient service that really aims to personally cater to your hearing issues, with care and kindness. - 9/14/2022 

My husband is Dr. Valla's patient, and has this to say, "Dr. Valla listened carefully to my concerns and resolved my needs clearly and concisely in language I could understand. I highly value seeing Dr. Valla, and I would heartily recommend him to anyone needed hearing assistance." - 7/29/2022 

Andy Valla is the best. He grasped all the advantages I was looking for in hearing aids and my fears. The entire staff is clients first and first class. - 7/28/2022
