Michael Ruccio

Au.D., CCC-A, Doctor of Audiology

Dr. Michael Ruccio received his doctorate degree in Audiology (Au.D.) from Salus University. During his schooling, he clinically rotated through Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and New York. He served on the national Student Academy of Audiology fundraising committee. Dr. Ruccio is passionate about educating everyone on the importance of regular hearing checks. He has diagnosed and rehabilitated patients of all age groups. Dr. Ruccio grew up with a great-grandfather suffering from a hearing impairment. His connection with his great-grandfather spurred his interest to learn more about the physiology of the ear and hearing.

When he is not talking about the human ear, Dr. Ruccio enjoys exercising and practicing the ukulele. He says, “The music you play is only as good as how much you can hear to enjoy it.”

When walking into the office I was welcomed with a very friendly staff member and the waiting section was comfortable to sit and wait for the doctor. Dr. Ruccio was very pleasant to meet and speak with. He explained everything in an easy to understand detail about my hearing loss and what it meant for me. When discussing hearing aids he was not pushy in trying to up sell me and respected my financial decision with what I did choose. Dr. Ruccio has gone above and beyond in helping make sure my hearing aid is comfortable and that I am able to hear adequately. I would highly recommend his office to anyone looking for hearing assistance and solutions. I am grateful for his help!

In town for business and I had to book a last minute check out. They were so accommodating for my same day appointment request! I was impressed with their professionalism and would definitely visit again for my hearing needs.

Dr Ruccio is one of the best in his field of Audiology. He's young and very good with all the modern technology for us who have hearing loss. Also, he has an amazing receptionist.

Very pleased with my visit. The doctor and staff were very efficient and professional. Took the time to explain everything to you. Was more interested in helping you hear than selling you a new more expensive pair of hearing aids.

I have been going to this office for the past 2 years and previously went to another HearingLife office. The staff here are great. Dr. Michael Ruccio has had several suggestions that have improved my use of my hearing aids tremendously and he is always ready to listen to any problems.
