Hometown Hearing: Our Story
Hometown Hearing is a privately owned and operated hearing practice. Jacob Levsen opened Hometown Hearing in 2015 after working in the hearing aid field for 20 years. Jacob wanted to be able to help the people of Des Moines experience better hearing. Jacob enjoys seeing the faces of his patients light up when they first hear the sound of their loved one’s voices when they are fit for hearing aids in the office.
Our goal at Hometown Hearing is to provide all of our patients with exceptional hearing care, so they can hear – and feel – their best again. Everyone deserves to be able to hear the voices of their children, the laughter of their grandchildren, and the sound of the conversation with friends. We carry the latest hearing aid technology to help you hear all that matters to you. Call us today to schedule your appointment and experience better hearing for yourself.
