Now located at 478 Reservoir Ave., Beltone is celebrating 78 years of Hearing Health Care and recently held a Grand Opening at their new location.

“We had an office in Cranston for over 15 years, but we needed a larger location to service our Beltone patients better along with having the latest testing and diagnostic technology and along with updating the look of our office. This office has great exposure for us right on Reservoir Ave. with great parking, visibility traffic,” said Michael Andreozzi, CEO.

Mayor Allan Fung held a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Nov. 9 to welcome them to their new location. Beltone has eight locations covering the entire state.

“I am proud to be a second generation Hearing Aid Dispenser following the footsteps and foundation my father Rocco Andreozzi Jr. started more than 60 years ago here in Rhode Island,” said Andreozzi. “I was personally born and brought up in Cranston, so for us to be able to purchase this building and make it apart of the other 75 Beltone locations we own and operate means a lot to me.”

Their Corporate Headquarters is in Warwick. The new HCP (hearing care practitioner), Mark Zarrella, runs and manages the new office and he is a multi-award-winning hearing aid practitioner and is recognized as one 10 HCP’s in this field in the USA.

The office in Cranston has four employees and the corporate office in Warwick has more than 30 and the entire business they own and operate in the nine states has more than 180 team members.

“My father is now 85 years old and still sees patients two to three days a week in this very office – given incredible care to all that he serves, while he keeps up on the latest technology,” said Andreozzi.

With their ribbon cutting so close to Veterans Day, Beltone New England and Beltone Carolina/Virginia celebrated by donating $20 on any hearing aid purchased on November 12 through The Wounded Warriors Project.

“This very important charity offers a variety of programs, services and events for wounded warriors. It serves veterans and service members who incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound while serving in the military on or after September 11, 2001 and it operates as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization,” said Andreozzi.

Veterans will receive a 25 percent discount on any hearing aid purchased on November 12 (and continuing all year round) as well as a free MyPal Pro. This device can be placed in various locations and helps capture sound clearly, even in noisy environments and streams it directly into the users hearing aids, bringing conversations or entertainment closer to them.

“Hearing is a sense many of us take for granted until it begins to slip away. Hearing well, especially for our veterans, is essential for being happy, and it allows us to stay connected to the people, activities, and the sounds we love. Prioritizing hearing health is more important than ever as millions of Americans suffer from some form of hearing loss,” he continued.

Beltone has built ground breaking technology, rechargebility, HD sound quality, wireless connections and use with all Apple and Android Phones, an incredible App. The industry’s first Remote Health Care Ability to program, change and adjust the device from anywhere in the world remotely.
