Introducing Dr. Julie Jimenez
Hi! I grew up in Montgomery County, Maryland, and received my Bachelor of Science in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology from Towson University where I graduated with Cum Laude honors. I subsequently received my Doctor of Audiology degree from Salus University, located in suburban Philadelphia. My externship/residency was completed at Newport-Mesa Audiology Balance and Ear Institute in Newport Beach, CA where I mainly focused on vestibular diagnostics, vestibular rehabilitation, as well as hearing aids.
I became an audiologist because of my grandmother. She struggled with hearing loss for a large part of her life, and it was challenging to communicate with her from across the globe. Over time, her hearing had drastically declined, and right before she passed away, I told her that I loved her one last time. My grandmother couldn't understand me and could not respond back to me. She ended up passing away without knowing that I loved her more than the world. I was absolutely devastated, and I knew from that moment how important it was for individuals to have the ability to understand their loved ones no matter what is being communicated. And while this was such a heartbreaking experience, I was inspired to become an audiologist and strive to help others as best I can. I look forward to meeting you!
