"The first time you see tears shed because a patient can hear their loved ones is very powerful. Ever since, I have had an overwhelming desire to help more people and do it better every time" Linda earned the title of Audioprosthologist from The International Institute for Hearing Instrument Studies approved by the American Council on Education, as well as being a Board Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist. Linda continues her thirst for knowledge with yearly Continuing Education courses to keep abreast of the rapidly changing industry and science of hearing aids.
