About
HCPC-registered Hearing Aid Dispenser with a BSc in Hearing Science and one year of experience as a Trainee Audiologist, where I gained hands-on experience running my own clinics and supporting patients with their hearing needs. I also have one year of administrative experience working in a GP practice, where I developed strong communication and organisational skills and helped triage patients with hearing-related concerns and direct them to the appropriate care. I'm passionate about providing good patient care and would like to continue developing my clinical skills and experience within the hearing care industry.
