Founded in 1983, Audiology of Tulsa, PLLC is the oldest doctoral level private audiology practice in the state of Oklahoma.
Founded by a solo audiologist in a single location, we are now in three locations and are staffed by five university-trained doctoral level audiologists, a 4th year audiology intern, two audiology assistants/hearing instrument specialists, a lab technician, and a fleet of support staff.
When you come to see us for your hearing or balance problem, you will be seen by an audiologist. We will take a thorough history, listen to your concerns, perform a comprehensive evaluation, then discuss our findings and recommendations. We were founded on a medical model and view hearing and balance problems as health issues, not the opportunity to sell you a hearing aid. While we do provide expert hearing aid fitting services using best practice fitting techniques, our major concern is your hearing health.
Our Knowledgeable And Caring Staff. We take pride in our university trained Doctors of Audiology, who use best practice hearing aid fitting techniques.
