Summary

Eric Nelson, Au.D., CCC-A, is a licensed audiologist in New York and New Jersey and the founder of Pinnacle Audiology. After spending over a decade working in some of New York City’s most respected hospitals and academic medical centers, he began to envision a new model of hearing care—one that offered greater personalization, flexibility, and freedom from the constraints of traditional clinical settings.Throughout his career, Nelson has provided care to thousands of patients, mentored emerging audiologists, and managed complex clinical cases alongside multidisciplinary teams. Despite these accomplishments, he consistently observed how barriers such as long wait times, scheduling difficulties, and limited mobility prevented many individuals from receiving the care they needed. These challenges ultimately inspired him to establish Pinnacle Audiology—a concierge-style practice focused on bringing expert hearing care directly to patients in the settings that work best for them.Pinnacle Audiology is designed to offer a seamless, supportive experience, whether a patient needs a baseline hearing exam, a new hearing aid fitting, or ongoing adjustments to an existing device. The practice emphasizes transparent communication, extended one-on-one time, and truly personalized service. By removing the rushed pace and impersonal nature of many clinics, Nelson has created a space where comfort, clarity, and human connection take priority—making each patient feel not just heard, but genuinely understood.Schedule your appointment with Dr. Nelson today and experience the difference in care!
