Southwestern Hearing Centers—an independent hearing care provider—was awarded a Top Workplace honor for the second consecutive year by the St Louis Post Dispatch, Southwestern Hearing Centers announced in a blog posting.

Vice President Brian Marino believes success starts with top-notch employees.

“In our 70 years in business, we have found that when our team enjoys coming to work everyday, our patients, in turn, receive better care.” said Marino. “Investing in our employees is a no-brainer.”

The Top Workplace lists are reportedly based on the results of an employee feedback survey by WorkplaceDynamics. The survey measured workplace culture in over 3,000 nominated companies in St Louis. Responses about employee happiness were assessed in six key-areas including alignment, execution, and connection. The award winners were announced June 25 in the St Louis Post Dispatch. For the second year in a row Southwestern Hearing was the only hearing aid company in America to be honored, placing 30th in the small business category, according to the blog post.

Southwestern Hearing is very proud to be recognized as a Top Workplace, competing with thousands of other wonderful St. Louis organizations for the distinction.

“We are lucky to have such a passionate group of hearing care providers working for us,” Marino said. “In our industry we put 100% of our focus on patient care, but that doesn’t mean our employees are forgotten. Without them we wouldn’t be able to touch so many other lives.”

It’s been said that Southwestern Hearing has helped more than 250,000 people improve their lives with better hearing.
