Congratulations and Good Luck, Jolene and Kristi!
Over the past year, Jolene Manthey (Kent State) and Kristi Moore (Gallaudet University) completed their 4th year practicums in the MDHC clinic in order to graduate with their Doctorate of Audiology degrees. They spent hours observing, learning, practicing, and implementing skills and techniques alongside their mentors, the MDHC Audiologists. Each had the opportunity to spend time in various specialties of audiology, including pediatrics, cochlear implant mappings, and the vestibular clinic.
We've enjoyed their energy and enthusiasm over the past 12 months and look forward to watching them start their careers as Audiologists.
Good luck and THANK YOU for everything you've contributed to the team!
