Dr. Kay is a certified tinnitus management specialist that is trusted by hundreds of local patients, families, and physicians.

Growing up in Miami, FL, Dr. Kay spent much of her childhood traveling to South America to visit her family in Uruguay, becoming fluent in Spanish during the process. Following school, she obtained a bachelor’s degree in anthropology from Florida International University where she discovered her love for audiology through speech pathology. She knew instantly that she had found her passion and relocated to New Orleans where she received her Doctorate of Audiology from Louisiana State University.

With experience of working with both hearing aid manufacturers, where she was recognized as the technology specialist for the Northwest region, and private practice hearing care practices working hands-on with patients, she has a unique set of skills that sees her recognized as a highly trusted hearing care expert nationally.

In 2021, she was certified in tinnitus management and now spends her days helping local people to achieve better hearing and supporting fellow hearing care professionals with complex and challenging hearing healthcare cases.

Tinnitus is a passion and purpose for Dr. Kay and knowing that many people are suffering with tinnitus and not getting the correct treatment, or often thinking there are no treatments, is what inspires Dr. Kay to make important changes and raise awareness.

A personal success story was when she treated a patient who had suffered badly with tinnitus for over ten years and hadn’t found a treatment that had worked. He came to Dr. Kay looking for a solution and she was able to give him relief after such a long time. It was life-changing for him and his family.

When not helping people to hear, Dr. Kay enjoys spending time with her family and friends. She particularly enjoys fishing, camping, being out in the sun, and keeping up with the most interesting TV shows and movies.
