History of Hearing Zone

Established in 1978

Hearing Zone was founded by Dr. Garr Crookston in Pocatello, Idaho. From the beginning, the practice focused on putting patients first, a philosophy that has guided our growth over the years. Today, Hearing Zone has expanded to serve communities across three states, maintaining the same commitment to personalized care. In the Bay Area, Raymond Crookston continues this tradition, delivering professional audiology services and helping patients hear better every day.

Raven

Semi Retired Official Greeter!

Raven is our heartwarming welcome at our audiology clinic. Everyone who meets her falls in love instantly! Whether she’s wagging her tail, offering a gentle nuzzle, or just sitting patiently by the audiologist's side, she makes every visit a little brighter. If she’s not in the office, we know she’s dearly missed—because her sweet, loving presence is truly one-of-a-kind.

What our patients say about us

I had great service here! Jessica was very informative and took great care of me upon my arrival. Dr. Ray listened, ran my tests and was very thorough in his explanation of my hearing needs, and their dog was so sweet after her hello.
What a great find! Highly recommend this small owned business.

Is it possible that there are professionals who care about more than the bottom line, who care about helping people and about people as people?? Yes, Ray, Dr. Crookston, is one of that breed. Not only is he a fine audiologist, but he'll also help you work out the best solution for you. I'm someone with a recent profound hearing loss and am in the process of dealing with surgeons, a large medical group, insurance companies, etc., and having Dr. Ray on my side makes a huge difference. I give him my highest unequivocal recommendation!
