A Special Publication of the

The best.

I know when I’m trying to decide where to spend my money or time, I want to know where I should go.

Whether it’s food or clothing, a doctor or lawyer, a new roof or a new car – I always search for information on what to do.

The good news is there are seemingly unlimited options for finding that information online. The bad news?

In many instances, there is simply no way to know where these opinions are coming from – or how many people have weighed in. Or even to what extent you can trust the person or people posting the information.

But we are here to offer a solution.

Our results are in.

You, the readers of the Longview News-Journal and news-journal.com, have weighed in on your favorite businesses and personalities. With more than 150,000 votes spread across 230 categories, this is the biggest Best of East Texas edition yet.

And we’d like to think this is the best Best of East Texas yet, not only because there are more votes across more categories, but because of the 100page magazine you are holding.

We hope you enjoy this version of the Best of East Texas, and keep it until the 2023 version comes out.

Linking mind to ear since 1998.

SoundLogic is honored to be recognized as ONE OF THE BEST Audiology Offices by the readers of the Longview News-Journal. We are proud to provide the East Texas community with the very best in hearing care.

With more than half a century of combined audiological expertise and two decades serving East Texas, we don’t just turn up the volume—we tune into the brain.

Because without logic, sound may just as well be silence.

If you haven’t experienced us yet for yourself, come see why our experts were selected as one of the best!
