Good hearing is essential to a person’s physical and emotional well-being. And yet, hearing loss remains a common problem.

As part of the WS Audiology Group (WSA), a global leader in hearing care with the ambition of making wonderful sound part of everyone’s life, we believe in equal access to quality hearing care. For everyone. Everywhere.

SHOEBOX was developed as a way to help solve everyday problems faced by hearing health professionals and workplace safety managers. Problems like long wait times for access to hearing care. And limited or costly resources to deliver services.

Our founder, a pediatric otolaryngologist, thought there had to be a better way. A better way to test more people in more locations. That is why he invented SHOEBOX. The first clinically validated, automated hearing test available on an iPad. (Read more about it here).

Since then, the SHOEBOX portfolio has grown.  Today our software-based audiometers are all optimized for boothless testing. We offer mobile, in-clinic, and tele-audiology solutions as well as online hearing screeners.

While our vision is to enable equal access to quality hearing care, as global citizens, we also believe we can have a positive impact that reaches beyond hearing.

One of our core values is to be “People of Integrity.” That means we support, respect, and trust one another. We applaud differences and unique human perspectives. We know that a diverse and inclusive world is a better world. A safer world. And ultimately, a healthier world.
