He who knows, and knows that he knows, is a wise man; follow him. He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep; wake him. He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is a child; teach him. He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool; shun him.

Dr. Stephanie Adamovich, MS, PhD, CCC-A

Doctor of Audiology

Dr. Adamovich has been listening to patients and families share their stories of hearing and hearing loss for 25+ years. She has worked in hospitals and academic clinics, serving adults and children, with an emphasis on diagnostic accuracy, cochlear implants and audiologic rehabilitation. Her approach to hearing care recognizes that just as hearing loss is personal, hearing solutions must also be personal. Her goal is that each patient leaves an appointment with questions answered and confidence boosted, particularly with regards to how hearing devices can help make important communication and listening activities less effortful to participate in. She received her PhD from Gallaudet University, her Master’s of Science in Hearing Sciences/Audiology from the University of Arizona, and her Bachelor’s of Science in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology from Brigham Young University. She enjoys reading, hiking, teaching, thinking about quilting (where there is time) and spending time with her 5 children, their spouses, and her 5 grandchildren.

There is something wonderful about the word now. There is something empowering about the fact that if we choose to decide now, we can move forward at this very moment. It is a time to celebrate.
