As an early settlement in New England, our community is home to several National Register of Historic Places sites, like the Cheshire Historic and Marion Historic Districts, the Farmington Canal Lock, and the First Congregational Church of Cheshire.
Known for our diverse architecture, vast public parks, and classic boutiques in our town center, New Canaan, CT began as an agricultural community while being known for shoemaking after the Revolutionary War. When the railroad came to New Canaan in 1868, many of New York City's wealthy residents discovered our community and built summer homes, which eventually became year-round residences.
New Canaan’s famed architecture began to develop in the 1940s and 1950s as the Harvard Graduate School of Design migrated to our community and members of the “Harvard Five” (Philip Johnson, Marcel Breuer, Landis Gores, John M. Johansen, and Eliot Noyes) began to practice their skill, attracting other well-known architects like Frank Lloyd Wright and other lesser-known designers to the area.
Local boutiques, businesses, and national chain stores can be found in our downtown area, including Ralph Lauren and Ralph Lauren Children, Ann Taylor, J. McLaughlin, Papyrus, Vineyard Vines, Le Pain Quotidien, and Starbucks, among others. Most major banks, many wealth management firms, and several hedge funds like JP Morgan Chase, Merrill Lynch, Wells Fargo, UBS, Citibank, and Bank of America maintain a presence in New Canaan as well.
Success in business and a better quality of life involves good communication with family, friends, and colleagues, but hearing challenges can limit your ability to communicate well. Dr. Bauman, a major contributor in the field of audiology worldwide and co-founder of AVI New England, makes it possible for individuals in New Canaan and communities close by to get the personalized and local solutions offered at our Norwalk, CT clinic to address hearing loss, tinnitus, sound sensitivity issues, balance disorders, and other hearing challenges.

How Can We Help?
Hearing Assessments
When Was Your Last Hearing Test?
Most people regularly have their eyes, teeth and bloodwork tested but rarely do they include checking their hearing.
It is reported that hearing loss is the third most common physical health condition, impacting globally 1 in 8 individuals. The World Health Organization predicts that hearing loss will almost double in the next 30 years; this makes a regular hearing assessment critically important.
The biggest challenge is that hearing loss often occurs slowly and gradually, making it almost impossible to notice on a day-to-day change.
Typically, our loved ones are first to notice that we are experiencing a hearing challenge before we do.
Having a regular hearing assessment allows for early detection of hearing loss ensuring the right preventive measures are taken so that your hearing health is optimally cared for.
If you are concerned about your hearing or a loved one’s hearing, we highly encouraged you to schedule a hearing assessment with our expert hearing doctors. It is quick, non-invasive, and you’ll receive the results immediately.
