About Laurie Ann Waltz-Hruska, MBA, BC-HIS
Laurie brings over 18 years of experience to each individualized appointment. She has the experience, expertise, and education to benefit each patient she works with. While these are important qualities; her ability to connect and develop a relationship with her patients is the most advantageous quality she possesses, which helps her solve the complex needs of each patient.
Laurie is a Licensed Hearing Instrument Specialist in the state of Pennsylvania, a member of the International Hearing Society, and the Pennsylvania Hearing Health Healthcare Association. She has an Associate of Applied Science, a Bachelor of Science, and a MBA, all with High Honors. She is Board Certified in Hearing Instrument Sciences and has had extensive training in Live Speech Mapping, Real Ear Measurement, deep canal impressions, and is proficient in all audiometric equipment to service your hearing needs.
Laurie and her husband Mark (a newly retired teacher) live in Jackson Township with their Bichon Frise Lexi. They both love taking trips and having their grandchildren over. Laurie enjoys her role in the hearing health community; for Laurie, this is not a job - she truly enjoys making every patient a part of her family.
