WHO WE ARE


Shawn Feddersen

Hearing Specialist

Shawn, a native Oregonian grew up in beautiful Eugene and is a lifelong hearing aid wearer. He has spent the last 15 years in the hearing aid industry honing his skills and helping the community hear better. As a hearing aid wearer himself, he can better understand and relate to everyone who comes into Goodman Hearing. He has a passion to give back and help others. 

He lives 10 mins away from the office in Springfield Oregon and loves to stay busy! He enjoys karaoke, dancing, and attending community events. During his off time he also enjoys hiking, traveling, and spending time with friends. “Having hearing loss is like being stuck in a bubble. You can’t reach out and others can’t reach in. Hearing loss can cause withdrawal from the things you love in life. Don’t let that stop you. Come see us today and how we can help. You’ve heard of “seeing is believing”, well at Goodman Hearing; Hearing is believing!   

Jim Downing

Hearing Specialist

Jim Downing has been helping patients in Eugene hear better for 26 years.

Jim has extensive experience fitting all the major brands. With hearing aids, what works well for one person may not be the correct choice for another. One size, style or circuit does not fit all. Jim’s expertise in this area is second to none. During the initial consultation, Jim will gather all the information he needs to choose the correct devices for you. In subsequent visits Jim will fine tune the instruments for the clearest, most comfortable hearing.

In Memory of Our Founder: Arnie Goodman

A hearing aid wearer for over 40 years and helping people here in Eugene for over 30 years his profound loss gave him special insights when dealing with his patient’s hearing problems. As a musician and recording engineer, Arnie’s hearing went from perfect to profound over a 10 year period. He knew what it is to hear and not hear. Arnie’s #1 goal was to put the music back in his patient’s lives, a legacy that lives on with Goodman Hearing
