AFA Balance & Hearing Institute
The AFA Balance & Hearing Institute located in Mesa, Ariz., officially opened its doors in January 2013. The AFA Balance & Hearing Institute was made possible by a generous start up donation from the Audiology Foundation of America (AFA) and other supporting partners. Unlike most private practice or retail franchises, the AFA facility is part of a university teaching institution, the Arizona School of Health Sciences at A.T. Still University.
