This week I am thrilled to sit down with a great friend and colleague, Dr. Elizabeth Walker who is an assistant professor at the University of Iowa where she teaches and is the director of the Pediatric Audiology Lab.   In this episode, Dr. Walker shares why “mild” is MORE than mild as it relates to hearing loss and the need to optimize access to auditory information.  Dr. Walker has a wealth of knowledge and research through her work as an investigator on the Outcomes of Children with Hearing Loss (OCHL) study.  Whether you are a parent, audiologist, speech language pathologist or educator; you will want to hear key take-aways to help children with hearing loss achieve optimal outcomes.
