Laura - Audiologist - Cathedral Hearing Lichfield

ABOUT LAURA

The very best thing about having my own, family run practice is being able to fully focus on our patients’ hearing needs.

My journey with Audiology started at the age of five, when like many children I was fitted with grommets to treat glue ear associated hearing loss.

I later experienced pressure trauma from diving and ended up with long standing perforations in both eardrums. Regular visits to my Audiologist inspired me to embark on my own career in Audiology. After completing a Biosciences Degree at the University of Birmingham I completed an MSc in Audiological Science at the renowned Institute of Sound and Vibration research in Southampton, followed by a clinical training program in the NHS.

I worked in several different settings including the NHS and in private audiology services for nearly 14 years and although I enjoyed it, time and resources were often restricted. Continuity of care and time available to spend with patients could be limited and it was rare to be able to see a patient throughout their entire hearing journey.

CATHEDRAL HEARING

What started as a passion for truly personalised ear care grew into Cathedral Hearing.

This motivated me to set up my own practice, Cathedral Hearing, in the heart of beautiful Lichfield city centre in June 2024.

We have invested in high quality equipment and technology, and this coupled with our emphasis on patient centred care means the best possible outcome for our patients.

As an independent ear health specialist, I can give my time and expertise to patients to allow them to make informed decisions about what they want to do to improve their hearing.

So many of our patients have recommended Cathedral Hearing to their friends and families which is the greatest endorsement we could ask for, and I am so grateful for the fantastic support and custom our practice has received so far.

As an independent business we are proud to support the We Love Lichfield Community Foundation and my husband Richard and I get involved in the charity’s fundraising events whenever we can to help support voluntary groups across the district.

Thank you for your interest in Cathedral Hearing, we look forward to welcoming you soon.
