Heartland Hearing Care

Your hearing is vital to
living your life to the fullest.

Family Owned and Operated

Kelli Kernan has been dedicated to helping patients improve their hearing since 2007. Growing up in the industry, she witnessed firsthand the impact that quality hearing care can have on people’s lives. Inspired by her father, Royce LaMarr, she followed in his footsteps and built a career centered on patient care.

After starting as an assistant, Kelli worked diligently to earn her Hearing Instrument Specialist license and National Board Certification. As the business expanded, so did her responsibilities, eventually leading her to the role of Chief Information Officer for the family’s large bi-state practice.

In 2024, Royce decided to retire, and Kelli transitioned into ownership, opening five locations of her own. By streamlining the practice, she has been able to prioritize what matters most—providing patients with top-tier hearing care using the latest technology.

Heartland Hearing’s Journey

Under Kelli’s leadership, Heartland Hearing Care continues to serve the Missouri and Illinois region with a strong commitment to excellence. While the practice remains independent, it has become a leading provider for one of the major U.S. hearing technology manufacturers in Missouri.

Kelli and her team are personally involved in the day-to-day care of their patients, ensuring they receive the best solutions to improve communication and reconnect with loved ones.

At Heartland Hearing Care, our mission is simple: Hear Better, Live Better.
