About Claudia

After working in another field of healthcare for a number of years, I chose to retrain in Audiology. After training with one of the main hearing aid manufacturers, and at De Montfort University, I have fully qualified as a Hearing Aid Audiologist. Within my training, I took a special interest in tinnitus management, and have dedicated time to understanding the condition. I look forward to offering all hearing aid manufacturer options to my patients, across the Haslingden and Bolton centres.
