Learn about Hearing Loss, Ringing Ear, Hearing Technology, Vertigo, and Memory Research at One of Our Educational Lectures Provided Throughout Southwest Florida!
By Hoglund Family Hearing and Audiology Services
Hoglund Family Hearing And Audiology Center has been the educational resource for Southwest Florida for everything related to the human hearing system. Their popular “Lunch and Learn” seminar series has educated thousands of people throughout Lee and Collier Counties for over 15 years! “I have always believed that hearing is an aspect of health that most people wish they knew more about, but have nowhere to turn,” states John Hoglund BC-HIS, ACA. “Primary Care Physicians, unfortunately, cannot stay in touch with all the breakthroughs going on in the field of hearing when attending to every other aspect of health. My wife Patricia and I have tried diligently to bring compelling speakers and informative research finding to Southwest
Florida and make this information available in a relaxed atmosphere, along with a delicious meal! The response from attendees has been flattering and encouraging!” “I would recommend this lunch and learn seminar to friends and family because it is very informative. The workshop was excellent. The speakers were very knowledgeable and covered every ear problem possible. They also explained everything in layman’s language which made it easy to understand. My knowledge about hearing has dramatically improved after attending the Seminar.”
– Eileen A, Bonita Springs
John started his educational lecture series back in 1985, and has personally given between 1000-1500 lectures on topics surrounding hearing health. He and Patricia also get compelling speakers to come to the area who are experts in the field of Hearing Loss, Memory, Tinnitus (Ringing Ears), Hearing Aids, Meniere’s Disease, Vertigo, and especially Nerve Deafness! “The information that was covered was informative and very helpful in understanding Tinnitus and hearing loss. They provided me with information that I had not heard before. John is an above average speaker and knows his topics very well. I have learned so much from him and I’m pleased to have come to the seminar.”

The month of April will feature a series of lectures with Dr. Jamie Katz, Au.D. from Starkey Laboratories who is one of their most respected and requested speakers. Dr. Katz has 36 years of clinical experience, including comprehensive diagnostic audiology at a speech and hearing center, as well as an ENT practice, with strong emphasis on product training and research in Treatment of NERVE DEAFNESS. Educational seminars are a great way to learn about a topic in a relaxed atmosphere surrounded by people who are experiencing similar health questions. There is a “strength in numbers” effect being in a room full of people were going through the same confusion or symptoms that you are experiencing. In cases like severe Tinnitus Patients, it is hard for family members to understand the distress their spouse is experiencing, but when a room full of Tinnitus Patients “break bread together” at the luncheon, a greater understanding of the condition occurs. This can help immensely! “It was really interesting learning of the emotional component of Tinnitus and brain trying to compensate for the hearing loss. The information was helpful to understand tinnitus. As a spouse of a person with tinnitus, I can be more sensitive to his condition.” – Janet M., Fort Myers
There has been a great deal of research showing how your Hearing directly influences other aspects of health including balance problems and your cognitive ability. “We have had excellent crowds for the “Is it my Memory … or is it my Hearing? Seminar, since so many people have cognitive concerns!” “The seminar was very informative – I learned a lot about hearing loss and memory since I was concerned how hearing loss increases the risk of dementia.”
– Sandra K., Fort Myers
It is good for people to have somewhere to turn when it comes to Hearing or Tinnitus lectures! “People seem to greatly appreciate the speakers we have been able to bring it to the area,” John continued. “Dr. Katz is one of our most requested speakers because of his incredible level of experience and expertise. I insist that although many of the speakers come from a specific company that the program based on education and not ‘a commercial’ about how good their company is or why their products are superior to others! We keep the focus on clinical treatments and questions the audience has about their health and well-being.”
