Distance Learning Doctor of Audiology - Testimonials
After graduating with my Masters in '85, I worked for 6 years then took
10 years off to raise children. The field changed a lot and there was a
big gap in my resume. The Au.D. filled in the holes particularly in the
areas of hearing aids, balance disorders and electrophysiology. This increased
my competency and my confidence greatly.
Kristi Reed, Au.D., Spring 2005
Earning the AuD. made me more knowledgable, confident, and skillfull in
rendering audiology services to my clients and increased patient/client
satisfaction. Thanks to the University of Florida. I would recommend your
AuD program to prospective students.
Smita Hiremath, Au.D., Summer 2006
I believe that our children deserve the best care and highly qualified
professionals working with them. This (the Au.D.) degree is one more step
in accomplishing this goal. I will never stop learning and the University
of Florida program offered the best learning opportunity.
Sharyce Baartman, Au.D., Fall 2005
It (the Au.D.) provided me with a means to update my knowledge base in
our increasingly diverse field while putting me in touch with audiologists
all over the country. I loved it so much I didn't want to leave and was
fortunate enough to become a facilitator in the program.
Karen McQuaide-Bell, Au.D., Spring 2005
Obtaining the Au. D. has allowed me the opportunity to venture into other
areas of audiology as both an audiologist and an entrepreneur.
Brian Curtis, Au.D., Summer 2006
I feel as if I am a more competent, confident and enthusiastic clinician.
Completing the degree helped renew my passion for the field.

The most important impact of earning the Au.D. from UF has been the respect
from patients, colleagues and employers that accrues from possessing a doctoral
degree from a highly reputable university.
