Dr. Sarah Sparks, Au.D. is pleased to announced the formation of Audiology Outside the Box, an online practice serving clients in Maryland, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Washington, DC. Practice and website opening on November 30, 2020!
Audiology Outside the Box offers a different mindset about audiology services. The focus is on supporting your communication and hearing-related goals, whether those involve spoken language or not. All services can be provided in American Sign Language (ASL), English, or both.
What happens during your appointment? You share about your needs and preferences, and your audiologist will listen. Together, we will create a plan that suits your individuality and does not force you into a box.
Examples of what might happen during an appointment:
1) Family education about deaf and hard of hearing experiences
2) Consultation about communication opportunities for deaf and hard of hearing children
