Cynthia Dodero has played an integral part at Dodero Hearing Center since 1992. She received medical assisting training early on in her career and has always had a strong desire to serve others. The depth of her knowledge in both patient care and business is evident to each and every patient that walks through the front door. Mrs. Dodero finds that nurturing long-term patient relationships is the most fulfilling part of her day. It is not unusual for new patients to experience an immediate "trust" and "comfort" upon their first interaction with her.
