Meet Dr. Rachel Conter!
Hello! I am Dr. Rachel Conter. I am a native Floridian and grew up in Brooksville, FL. I came to love the field of Audiology through my mother, who is also an Audiologist here at Gardner Audiology. I began working as a lab technician and worked my way to becoming the Audiologist I am today! One of my passions is educating patients on the correlation between hearing loss and other health concerns such as cognitive decline/dementia, falls, depression, and social isolation. In fact, I was part of a research study during graduate school that looked at the relationship between hearing and cognition! I am an animal lover and have three rescue dogs and a cat. In my spare time, I love exploring Dunedin and boating with my husband and daughter.
