“At our clinic, we believe that the key to a very effective hearing aid rehabilitation program lies with providing the most advanced digital hearing aid technology available, together with ongoing follow-up care and support with a special emphasis on listening to how the patient feels about the level of improvement and progress that has been made.”

“I am happy to be able to join Austin Hearing Aid Center on a part-time basis, following a 40-year career as an audiologist in both clinical settings and as a private practice business founder at Lakeview Hearing Center in Marble Falls. I retired in 2018 and I find I miss many aspects of my career as an audiologist. I look forward to the opportunity to work together with you in finding the best hearing solutions for your individual lifestyle.  Every person is unique and there is no one approach that works for all. My private practice model was very people-centered and that made it rewarding for me. I have found a great fit for that approach with Austin Hearing Aid Center.

I have known Bill Rudolph for many years and we both truly care about our clients and their communication needs. He has kindly welcomed me into his practice and I know we will all work well together. Although I will be working part-time, we all work as a team to meet your needs as they arise.”
