"I'm happy I made the decision to go to Twin Rivers. Mary Kay is awesome. If you have a problem, she gets it fixed. I had a couple of minor issues and she fixed the problem and made sure I was happy with the results. Lee is also very pleasant and a joy to talk with. I cannot say enough about them both."
~ Tim T. from Blackstone, RI

Welcome to Twin Rivers Hearing Health, Inc.
Dr. Uchmanowicz (“Dr. Mary Kay”) is an award winner and has been the licensed owner of Twin Rivers Hearing Health, Inc. for the past ten years. She maintains a genuine rapport with her clients, who drive from miles around for the evaluation and treatment of hearing loss, ringing-in-the ears, musician monitors, and job-related hearing loss. She has been helping people with hearing problems for over 30 years.
Dr. Uchmanowicz recognizes that hearing loss often causes a communication breakdown between a patient and their family. That’s why she takes the necessary time in her "living room" office to help each patient find personalized hearing solutions and educate them about the available technology. In 2006, Dr. Uchmanowicz was nationally recognized as a "Focus on People Winner" for her work as a "hearing ambassador" to the people of the Philippines, examining and fitting them with donated hearing aids. Locally, she is a member of the Rhode Island Chapter of the National Aging in Place Council and educates people about how hearing help can allow seniors to remain self-reliant.

What We Do
Twin Rivers Hearing Health provides treatment for hearing loss and tinnitus to people of all ages in Rhode Island. We help everyone from newborns to senior citizens. We can help you improve your hearing in a way that primary care physicians cannot by selling, fitting, and maintaining hearing aids. We can also provide you with assistive listening devices like televisions and telephone amplifiers.
We also help people with noise-induced hearing loss due to job-related noise exposure by providing diagnostic workers with compensation evaluations, training them about hearing conservation, and supplying custom-made earplugs for protection. All this makes us the best choice for Audiology in Rhode Island.
