The Hearing Centre Gladstone

The Hearing Centre Gladstone Locally owned & operated, Gladstone Hearing Centre delivers 25+ years of expert hearing care.

Committed to improving lives with quality hearing solutions right here in our community With over 25 years of experience in the hearing care industry, Alan Fort began his journey at his parents’ clinic, where he discovered a passion for providing exceptional hearing services. After the clinic was sold, Alan honed his expertise working with various corporate providers, earning numerous accolades al

ong the way. Fourteen years ago, Alan and his wife Lynne settled in Gladstone, dedicating themselves to delivering high-quality hearing care to the local community and surrounding areas. Owning a clinic was a long-held dream for Alan, and after Lynne gained seven years of industry experience, it became her dream as well. Together, they decided to forgo retirement and open The Hearing Centre Gladstone, a proudly locally owned and operated full-time clinic. Establishing the clinic presented significant challenges, but the unwavering support of local businesses and the community made their dream a reality. Today, Alan and Lynne Fort are proud to serve Gladstone with exceptional care, helping individuals achieve better hearing and an improved quality of life. Many thanks to all our local suppliers:

If you’re eligible for hearing services through the Australian Government’s Hearing Services Program (HSP), you may be able to access subsidised hearing assessments, hearing devices and ongoing support.

At The Hearing Centre, we provide HSP services and can help eligible clients understand what support is available and guide them through the process.

Good hearing is about much more than hearing sounds. It helps you stay part of conversations, maintain connections with family and friends and continue enjoying the everyday things that matter to you.

Our team takes the time to understand your individual hearing needs, explain your options and provide ongoing care and support.

Not sure if you’re eligible for the Hearing Services Program?

We managed to get Alan to stand still long enough for a photo... although judging by the expression, he’s still deciding how he feels about it. 😂

Usually you’ll find Alan on the other side of things at The Hearing Centre, talking with clients, looking at test results and helping people better understand their hearing.

This time, we turned the attention on him.

With the sound-treated room behind him, the ear diagram on the wall and the screens ready to go, this is very much Alan in his natural habitat.

After years of working in hearing care, there probably isn’t much about ears that Alan hasn’t seen, heard or been asked about.

Although getting him to smile for the camera might still be one of our more difficult assessments. 😄

Say hello to Alan from The Hearing Centre!

This Sunday is all about celebrating the dads, grandads and father figures who are always there with advice, a story to tell... and occasionally the claim that “there’s nothing wrong with my hearing!” 😄

At The Hearing Centre, we know how important hearing is to staying connected to the people who matter most. From conversations around the dinner table to hearing the grandkids tell you about their day, it’s often the everyday moments that mean the most.

So this Father’s Day, make time for a conversation, share a few laughs and enjoy being together.

And Dad, if everyone keeps telling you the television is too loud... perhaps they have a point. 😉

Happy Father’s Day for Sunday from everyone at The Hearing Centre

Sometimes the signs that a child isn’t hearing clearly aren’t always obvious.

They might be asking for things to be repeated, turning the TV up, struggling to follow conversations, seeming distracted in the classroom or finding it harder to understand instructions, particularly when there’s background noise.

At The Hearing Centre, we provide Child Audiological Assessments for children aged 6 years and over, helping parents better understand how their child is hearing and identify any areas that may need further attention.

A comprehensive hearing assessment can provide valuable information about a child’s hearing and help determine the appropriate next steps if a concern is identified.

If you’ve noticed something, or simply want the reassurance of having your child’s hearing checked, the team at The Hearing Centre is here to help.

Good hearing plays an important role in learning, communication and confidence.

There are some sounds you simply don’t want to miss.

The punchline that has everyone laughing. Your grandkids telling you a story at a hundred miles an hour. A quiet conversation over coffee. Someone calling your name from the other room.

At The Hearing Centre, hearing care is about keeping you connected to those everyday moments and the people who matter.

That’s why we take the time to listen, understand what you’re experiencing and find solutions that fit your life. No rushing, no making things complicated and no treating you like just another appointment.

Because sometimes hearing better isn’t about turning up the volume.

It’s about getting more out of the conversations, connections and moments happening around you. 😊

There’s a lot that happens behind the scenes to make sure your hearing aids are working exactly as they should.

Here’s Alan, doing what he does best.

Hearing aids are small pieces of technology doing a pretty important job, and like anything you rely on every day, they need a little care and attention from time to time.

Cleaning, checking, servicing and making those small adjustments can make a real difference to how they perform and, more importantly, how well you’re hearing.

And when Alan gets focused like this, we generally leave him to it! 😄

It’s all part of the personal, hands-on service you’ll find at The Hearing Centre. Because looking after your hearing doesn’t finish when you walk out the door with your hearing aids. We’re here to look after you and them for the journey ahead.

There’s never a good time for your hearing aid battery to run out.

Not halfway through a conversation, while you’re out for the day or just when someone is getting to the good part of a story.

That’s why we stock Power One hearing aid batteries at The Hearing Centre Gladstone.

They’re designed to provide reliable, consistent power for today’s hearing aids, including devices using Bluetooth, wireless connectivity and advanced sound processing.

With long-lasting performance and mercury-free technology, Power One is a battery you can rely on to help keep your hearing aids doing their job.

Need to stock up? Drop into The Hearing Centre Gladstone and see our team.

Thousands of feet were pounding the pavement around Gladstone on Sunday for the annual Port to Park Fun Run, and what a great morning it was for our community.

We snapped this photo at the start with Curtis the Turtle, but being The Hearing Centre, we couldn’t help noticing something…

No matter what we asked Curtis, we couldn’t get a response.

For a moment we thought his hearing might need checking. Turns out his hearing is probably just fine. He’s a turtle. He doesn’t talk. 😂

We’ll stick to looking after the hearing of Gladstone locals and leave Curtis to doing what he does best!

Congratulations to everyone who took part in another fantastic Port to Park.

We put Alan through AI.

The computer analysed decades of hearing experience, thousands of hearing tests and countless conversations with Gladstone locals.

Its conclusion?

"This bloke has heard it all."

Except, apparently, when his wife is talking from another room. 😄

Hearing loss doesn't always happen overnight.

For many people, it starts with asking others to repeat themselves, turning the television up a little louder or finding conversations harder to follow in busy environments. Over time, those small frustrations can begin to affect confidence, relationships and everyday enjoyment.

At The Hearing Centre Gladstone, we help people understand what they're hearing, what they might be missing and what options are available to improve their hearing experience. With today's technology offering clearer sound and more personalised solutions than ever before, there are more choices available than many people realise.

If you've noticed changes in your hearing, or someone close to you has mentioned it, a hearing assessment could be the first step towards reconnecting with the sounds that matter most.
