Doctor of Audiology
“ When I was growing up, we spent a lot of time with my grandfather, who had significant hearing loss and would frequently withdraw from social situations. When I became an audiologist, it helped me to understand how lonely and isolating hearing loss can be, and how important it is to identify and treat those with hearing loss to minimize these effects. I love being able to help those with hearing loss hear and connect with the world around them again.”
