Itâs been a while since Iâve done a formal introduction, so HI, Iâm Dr. Lindsey- the voice behind Audiology Always, and the owner of the place.
I was born and raised in Garrett, IN and now I reside in Garrett with my family- right across the road from my parents, my childhood home, and family farm (being this close is actually awesome, shhh donât tell my parents).
As a kid- I grew up playing lots of sports and participating in 4-H showing pigs and cows for 10 years. When it came time to decide on college I always knew I wanted to go to Purdue (mostly to be close to my brother) and pursue the medical field, but I wasnât sure where Iâd land.
My freshman year of college I had an unfortunate jaw surgery that led to an accidental punctured eardrum. This hearing loss led me to discover audiology. My eardrum healed, and the rest is history.
I switched my major at Purdue to speech and hearing sciences and then went on to get my Doctor of Audiology Degree from the University of Illinois in Champaign.
I knew very early on that someday I would open my own practice. I just wasnât sure when. I started my career with ENT Associates here in Fort Wayne and then went on to work for Signia Hearing, a global hearing aid manufacturer. In October of 2022, I walked in the door one day after being on the road and in hotels for the prior 3 days and told my husband that I was ready to open my own practice.
He said, âWhat do we do first?â
Winter of 2022-April of 2023 my family and friends WORKED to get Audiology Always off the ground, from a blank piece of concrete (when I say we worked- we designed the space, we hung trim, we painted the walls, we hung doors, we installed insulation, we assembled the furniture- all the things)!
When people ask âWhy choose Audiology Alwaysâ, one of my best answers is âlongevityâ. Let me tell you a secret, Iâm 34. When I say longevity, what I mean is that when you choose Audiology Always I am committed to taking care of you as my patient for the duration of my career. How many of us have had the same family doctor for 20 years, or the same dentist since we were a kid. The partnership and trust that is built in hearing care is no different.
Longevity + Independent (no manufacturer financial ties, no corporate agenda & no paid commission to my staff for your healthcare).
Iâm here for the long haul to give you my best, and Iâm fortunate to have the most brilliant staff and supportive family along for the ride!
