\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t
Dr. Ashley B. Thom, AuD, grew up in Abbeville, Louisiana. As a junior at LSU in a Speech Pathology class, she realized a love for speech, language, and hearing, as it relates to our sense of self. After completing a Bachelor of Arts in Communications Disorders, that love persisted, and Dr. Thom graduated in 2011 with a Clinical Doctorate in Audiology from Louisiana Tech University.<\/br> <\/br>\n\nSince joining Selective Hearing in 2011, Dr. Thom continues to make sounds and language more accessible to the hearing impaired and takes pleasure in learning about each patient\u2019s unique hearing and communication needs.\n\nWhen not in the office, Dr. Thom spends active family time with her husband and local nieces and nephews. She is a member of the Junior League of Lafayette where she regularly volunteers with a focus on making a better community for women and children. <\/br> <\/br> \n\nDr. Thom was an active member of the Louisiana Academy of Audiology, has served as a board member for two years, and was the 2016-17 President of LAA.<\/h6>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

I\u2019ve been coming here for years now and I\u2019m amazed every single time. The customer service, the attitudes, the knowledge, I can literally sit here and list the wonderful things about Selective Hearing and their staff. If it\u2019s your first time ever experiencing this type of service, you will walk away with so much knowledge that you will feel like you work here. If you\u2019re experienced and you just want a change in everything from your previous Audiologist this is the place to come.
