HCPC reg number: HAD005142

 

Qualifications: Bachelor of Speech and Language Pathology with Honours. Master of Audiology (University of Canterbury, New Zealand).

 

Where have you worked in Audiology and what were your main duties?:I have worked at Bay Audiology and Dilworth Hearing in New Zealand, as well as with Amplifon in Central London, UK. My main duties included diagnostic testing of ENT patients and adults, hearing aid fitting, follow-ups, and troubleshooting of hearing aids. Additionally, I briefly tested children’s hearing (aged 3 years and up) using Play Audiometry.

 

What services will. you be covering at Pindrop Hearing? I will be covering hearing tests, hearing aid fitting, and ear wax removal. I am also scheduled to attend training for Lyric hearing aids. In the future, I look forward to offering tinnitus assessments, APD assessments, and pediatric testing using VRA.

 

What do you love about being an Audiologist and what got you into it in the first place?:
I love the clinical side of Audiology and getting to be a big part of a person’s journey towards improving their quality of life. I absolutely love educating and advocating for people’s hearing health as it is an issue that is not obvious at first glance.

 

I have always wanted to help people and make a difference in other people’s lives. Communication is important to me so I’m blessed to have had 2 careers where my job is all about helping improve people’s issues with communication. I used to be a speech and language pathologist (SLP), so I have experience in helping children improve their language learning and speech difficulties.

 

I have also had brief experiences working with adults who have had a stroke, and I found it incredibly rewarding being able to help them get back to communicating with their loved ones. Audiology, was the next step for me because I knew I could carry over my experiences as an SLP while continuing work that aims to improve communication; only this time from a different angle. I enjoy the structured and science based nature of both the assessments and management.

 

Which clinic will you be based at?: Harley Street.

 

Just for fun….what is your favourite sound in the world?: My husband’s voice❤️
