Patient/Audiologist Philosophy:
Hearing rehabilitation requires medical management, extensive patient and family education and counseling. It takes more than technology to create the best solution. A good working relationship between the audiologist and individual are key to successfully managing a hearing loss. With the numerous options available, cooperatively assessing each person’s personal lifestyle and hearing goals will lead to successful management and rehabilitation of a hearing loss.
Personal Interests:
I enjoy spending time with my family. We often can be found enjoying a trip to the mountains for a weekend excursion, camping in the snow, or at the ocean enjoying the view and the water.
