Audiologist

All of our evaluations, counseling, as well as prescribing and fitting hearing aids are with a Doctor of Audiology. A Doctor of Audiology has 8 years of university training, including psychology, neuroscience, perception, acoustics (physics), aging, and of course hearing aid theory and functioning. An Audiologist uses that all of that knowledge and training to provide a diagnostic assessment and consultation for your hearing. An audiologist can also use that information and their own knowledge to provide an accurate hearing aid fitting and adjustments for your specific hearing needs. There are different types of hearing propossionals, and not all hearing professionals are Audiologists who also fit hearing aids are also Hearing Instrument Practitioners.

Our clinic audiologist, Dr. Joely Novik-Viveiros, AuD. has earned a Master's degree in Audiology from the University of BC's School of audiology and speech sciences, part of the faculty of medicine, and she then earned a Doctor degree in audiology. For the past 25 years, she has been providing hearing services and hearing aid fittings in the Northwest, specifically Terrace, Smithers, Prince Rupert, Hazelton and Kitimat residents for over two decades. Professional university training is important, but so is experience.
