Helping people hear better, every day.

EarTech was founded in 1992 by Dr. Daniel Schumaier, an audiologist who has run a dispensing practice since the early 1970s. As one of the first audiologists in the country to expand beyond hearing diagnostics into the actual dispensing of products, he uses his expertise and wisdom to provide the utmost care for every patient.

Throughout his early days as an audiologist, Dr. Schumaier noticed his patients’ increasing frustration with itchy, irritated ears and overall poor hearing aid performance. Moisture would frequently get into the hearing aids and interfere with the technology, causing significant performance issues and sometimes the failure of the hearing aids altogether. He could feel his patients’ exasperation and wanted to do something about it—so he did.
