These values shape our commitment to providing exceptional care and service to our clients, ensuring their satisfaction and well-being throughout their hearing journey. Founder, Mok Yong Yaw realised there was a vacuum in the field of hearing healthcare support across the nation. This inspired him to establish 20dB Hearing, a private hearing centre, to empower the hearing-impaired community. Since then, the company has grown into a top-notch hearing healthcare group with a network of 31 hearing centres nationwide and manned by over 70 certified audiologists.
In 2002, Mr Mok Yong Yaw, the founder, realized that hearing-impaired people need to know who and where to get help. There needed to be more professionally managed hearing care centres in Malaysia. This sparked the idea of setting up an audiologist-run professional hearing care centre nationwide, and the first outlet was established in Taman Maluri, Cheras, in the year 2002. 20dB Hearing was known as Gnosis Professional Hearing Services when it started operations. The following year, a second outlet was built in Seremban, which later spread throughout Malaysia in subsequent years. The founder recruited a group of pioneer audiologists, including those working in Singapore, to expand the network. 20dB’s philosophy is to be a blessing for the hearing-impaired group in this nation by providing access to the best products and services offered by dedicated audiologists in Malaysia.
