About Us
CRAIG T. BARTH, Audiologist
Craig Barth founded this Audiology Practice to give patients high-quality, patient-centered care and adhere to best practices.
Craig T. Barth, M.A., CCC-A, FAAA
Craig was drawn to Audiology through a curious route. His undergraduate college major was Pre-Med, with a secondary concentration in Music. He realized his own personal music appreciation cannot be fully experienced by someone with hearing impairment. (Imagine the challenges of Beethoven whose progressive hearing loss rendered him almost totally deaf!)
Soon after establishing his Private Practice, he specialized in the unique and demanding hearing needs of musicians. He continues with that sub-specialty to this day.
Music may have been what drew him to the field of Audiology, but what keeps him driven to serve is the personal gratification of seeing life-changing differences better hearing can make in peoples’ lives. Not just simply hearing "better", but to their maximum ability possible.
A Qualified Professional With Extensive Experience
Craig Barth received his Master's Degree in Audiology in 1981 from Hunter College at the City University of New York with additional Doctoral Level course work in Auditory Neurophysiology and Psychoacoustics. He served as Clinical Audiologist in a regional hospital in Texas as well as in a major teaching hospital in New York City. Prior to starting his own practice, he served as Assistant Clinical Director of Audiological Services at two consulting firms in Texas and New Jersey. After these experiences, he felt to best serve the needs of the hearing-challenged was to establish a private practice. This led to opening his Audiology Practice in Morristown, in 1986 and a branch office in Hackettstown, New Jersey in 1987.
Craig Barth received the Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association in 1983. He believes in lifelong learning as evidenced by receiving the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association’s Award for (extended) Continuing Education five times over! He was also elected to the position of Fellow of the American Academy of Audiology.
Craig has mild hearing loss himself and wears hearing aids in challenging listening environments. With this first-hand experience, he has an intimate understanding of life with hearing challenges.

We Make the Difference
Your Hearing Needs
Our treatment decisions are driven by your hearing needs, not increasing profits! Working for you in an independent private practice gives the freedom and flexibility to make recommendations without the financial influences that often beset commercial establishments or strict productivity goals that often beset institutional departments.
We must be doing something right - our patients have been returning to us and referring their friends and family for over 30 years. That's the highest compliment, with some patients coming from 3 generations of the same family
More Than Just Hearing Aids
Maximizing communication function often involves far more than hearing aids, Whether the treatment plan includes Aural Rehabilitation, Assistive Hearing Technology, or referral out for medical intervention, we are committed to have you actively engaged in the hearing world as soon as possible.

Our extensive knowledge of auditory anatomy, physiology and pathologies give us a more understanding of your hearing issues and a heightened ability to offer an effective treatment plan.
