Lori Klein Gardner, Au.D., FAAA

Doctor of Audiology and President

Dr. Lori earned her doctorate in Audiology from the Arizona School of Health Sciences/A.T. Still University. She graduated from the University of Virginia (B.S.Ed. in Speech Pathology/Audiology) and the University of Tennessee (M.A. in Audiology). Dr. Lori is nationally certified in Audiology by the American Board of Audiology. She also holds Virginia licenses as an audiologist and hearing aid specialist.

Dr. Lori began her professional career forty years ago as a staff audiologist then audiology supervisor at the Medical College of Virginia Hospitals where she helped establish the first hospital hearing aid dispensing program in Richmond. In 1992, Dr. Lori left MCV for Sheltering Arms Rehabilitation Hospital and later worked at Maico Hearing Aid Service.

In 2003, Dr. Lori turned a life long dream into reality with the establishment of our company, Hear Virginia LLC. Dr. Lori’s extensive expertise in hearing technology, rehabilitation, and demonstrated commitment to optimal patient-centered care provide a solid foundation to find practical solutions to improve hearing–and quality of life.

Dr. Lori also provides voluntary Audiology services in the greater Richmond area as well as being part of “remote area medical” teams that travel to Appalachia and Southwest Virginia. She lives in western Henrico County where she spends much of her free time planning, sewing , and completing quilts—including many of the quilts displayed in our office.

Nice President

Dr. Lori’s English springer spaniel (Isha) was our first “nice” president of public relations and greeted our clients until her final decline in August 2006.

Although Dr. Lori promises that there will be another “nice” president one day, she just has not found the right successor to this kind and gentle animal.
