Dr. Eric G. Nelson, Au.D., CCC-A led the audiology service at Weill Cornell Medicine for 13 years before founding Pinnacle Audiology — a concierge practice built on a simple idea: one doctoral audiologist who knows you, from first evaluation through every follow-up.
For 13 years, Dr. Nelson served as Audiology Supervisor at Weill Cornell Medicine, managing the audiology service at one of New York's leading academic medical centers. He cared for thousands of patients, mentored emerging audiologists, and handled the complex cases — cochlear implant and hearing aid bimodal fittings, difficult tinnitus presentations, and diagnostics other clinics refer out.
He opened Pinnacle Audiology because he kept seeing the same thing: patients who needed more time than a hospital system allows. Long waits, rotating providers, rushed appointments — barriers that keep people from hearing care that actually works.
Pinnacle is the answer. Every patient sees the same doctoral audiologist from evaluation through long-term follow-up. Every hearing aid fitting is verified with real-ear measurement — the evidence-based step most practices skip. And care happens where it works for you: the Midtown Manhattan office near Penn Station, the Garden City office on Long Island, or your own living room.
Patients describe him the same way in review after review: warm, clear, and genuinely unhurried. He explains until it makes sense, presents options without a sales pitch, and follows up until your hearing — not just your hearing aid — is right.
"Been seeing him for years and wouldn't see anyone else. Best audiologist in NYC."
"A pro with no pretenses. He explains things clearly and is a problem solver with infinite patience."
"I cannot imagine a better experience. I've already recommended him to others."
