Suzanne was one of the first two graduates of the first Audiology degree in Western Australia! She was self employed for 16 years in private practice and joined the Connect Team in 2008. Suzanne is passionate about what she does, “I have to admit my favourite thing to do is do is switch on a cochlear implant for the first time when a client has been living with profound hearing loss for years. I feel blessed to be able to make such a difference to people lives”. “It is lovely to know clients by name and to actually see how my work helps them to live fuller lives”. Suzanne’s top hearing tip is, “Wear your hearing aid as much as you can and if there is something you don’t like about it let your clinician know, it may be quite simple to rectify and we are always grateful for feedback.”Eimear Fay
