ABOUT HEARINGWORKS OF AUSTIN

HearingWorks of Austin, a mobile service, brings experienced and trusted hearing healthcare directly to clients. Our primary focus is to provide excellent home care, as well as education and solutions, to the hearing impaired population.

Our owner, Amy Smith, M.A./F-AAA. has extensive experience in the audiology field.  She received her undergraduate degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders and graduate degree in Audiology at the University of Texas at Austin. Her working career began in Houston at The Methodist Hospital, in conjunction with Baylor College of Medicine. After a couple of years, she decided to follow her heart back to Austin.

She continued her career in the Austin medical community, devoting her time and expertise to guiding and supporting people with hearing healthcare needs. For the past twenty five years her various roles have included medical diagnostic audiologist, dispensing audiologist, patient educator, department lead, as well as graduate student supervisor.


As a licensed audiologist by the state of Texas and a Fellow of the American Academy of Audiology, she provides extensive adolescent and adult diagnostic evaluations.  Additionally, she provides aural rehabilitative services, which includes making recommendations for audiological and support services for the hearing -impaired community.

Amy realized that due to Austin’s exponential growth over the past decades, many of her clients had difficulty, or did not desire, to commute to the Austin area. She also recognized the benefit of evaluating and treating in the individual's own home or workplace, which has the advantage of revealing the hearing and communication challenges in their daily routine. She established HearingWorks of Austin to provide exceptional service and compassionate care by bringing her years of hearing healthcare experience directly to her clients.
