Hearing Aids & Audiology in Keyport, NJ |
Haynie Audiology & Hearing Associates
Comprehensive hearing care for Keyport Borough residents — serving the Raritan Bayshore community from our downtown Freehold office.
Hearing Care for Keyport Residents
Keyport Borough residents have access to best-practice audiology care at Haynie Audiology & Hearing Associates — located at 31 West Main Street in downtown Freehold, accessible via Route 35, Route 36, or the Garden State Parkway. One of Monmouth County's most distinctive waterfront boroughs, Keyport has a deep maritime heritage and a tight-knit community character that makes locally accessible healthcare especially meaningful.
Dr. Alexandra Haynie, Au.D., CCC-A, ABA holds a Doctorate of Audiology, ASHA Certification, and Board Certification from the American Board of Audiology — the highest credential level available in audiology. With nearly half of Keyport's residents being seniors, accessible and expert hearing care close to the Bayshore is not simply a convenience — it is essential.
The Keyport Borough Community
Keyport is part of the Bayshore Regional Strategic Plan — an effort by nine municipalities in northern Monmouth County to reinvigorate the area's economy by emphasizing traditional downtowns, dense residential neighborhoods, maritime history, and the natural beauty of the Raritan Bayshore coastline. This regional identity gives Keyport its distinctive character: a walkable, historically rooted waterfront borough where the rhythms of daily life are shaped by the bay.
Keyport's neighborhoods — Haven off the Bay and the Borough Center — reflect the borough's compact, community-oriented layout. Unlike the sprawling suburban townships that dominate much of Monmouth County, Keyport is a place where residents know their neighbors, local businesses line Broad Street and Front Street, and the Raritan Bay provides a constant backdrop to community life. The borough's reputation as a destination for antiques, waterfront dining, and weekend visitors adds a layer of vitality to a community that is simultaneously one of Monmouth County's most established and most genuinely neighborhood-scaled.
Audiology Best Practices
Regardless of which hearing aid brand is selected, success depends on following comprehensive best practices during the fitting process. We use Real Ear Measurement and Test Boxes to verify that your hearing aids are programmed correctly to your hearing loss prescription, not just manufacturer estimates— ensuring your hearing aids are performing correctly from day one and adjusted as your brain adapts to amplification over time.
We serve patients throughout Monmouth County including Manalapan, Marlboro, Howell, Middletown, Aberdeen, Hazlet, Colts Neck, Red Bank, and all surrounding communities.
Keyport Schools and Families
The Keyport Public Schools is a comprehensive community public school district serving students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade, with an enrollment of 1,004 students across just 2 schools — one of the smallest K-12 districts in Monmouth County, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.0:1.
The district's intimate size — operating a full PreK-12 program across just two school buildings — reflects Keyport's borough scale and creates a genuinely close-knit educational community where students and families are known by name throughout their entire school career. The district office is located at 335 Broad Street in the heart of the borough.
For Keyport families with children showing signs of listening difficulty in school — difficulty following instructions, struggling in classroom settings, or inconsistent academic performance — a central auditory processing disorder (APD) evaluation is often the diagnostic step that changes everything. Dr. Haynie conducts comprehensive APD evaluations for children ages 7 and up and communicates findings directly with families and school teams to support appropriate accommodations.
Senior Living in Keyport
An extraordinary 44.4% of Keyport residents are seniors — one of the highest proportions of any community in all of Monmouth County, reflecting Keyport's long-standing appeal as a place where residents age in place within the community they've called home for decades.
Bethany Manor Apartments at 500 Broad Street in Keyport provides affordable senior housing for the borough's income-eligible residents age 62 and older — a community resource that reflects the borough's commitment to keeping its senior population housed within the neighborhood they know. For Keyport's many seniors who prefer to remain in their own homes, Haynie Audiology provides in-home audiology services throughout Keyport Borough — bringing hearing evaluations, hearing aid fittings with real ear measurement verification, follow-up care, and hearing aid maintenance directly to the patient's home. Given Keyport's exceptionally high senior population, in-home audiology is particularly relevant for the borough's residents who have deep roots in the community and prefer not to travel for healthcare appointments.

Why Keyport Patients Choose Haynie Audiology
Every hearing aid fitting at Haynie Audiology includes real ear measurement verification — confirming your devices are programmed to your specific ear canal anatomy and hearing loss, not manufacturer defaults. Fewer than 1 in 5 audiology practices use this standard. At Haynie Audiology it is included with every fitting.
For Keyport's large and deeply rooted senior community — many of whom have spent decades in the borough and are accustomed to the close-knit service relationships that define life in a small waterfront town — the combination of doctoral-level care, real ear measurement verification, and in-home audiology represents the complete spectrum of hearing care needs, delivered with the same commitment to quality that Keyport residents bring to everything in their community. Dr. Haynie's credentials — Au.D., CCC-A, ABA — represent the highest level of clinical education and board recognition in audiology, accessible from the Bayshore a short drive south on Route 9.
