He performs comprehensive diagnostic audiological testing in the Aberdeen office as a private practice audiologist and a Care in the Community provider for the VA. In addition to comprehensive diagnostic hearing evaluations, his services include hearing aid prescribing and fitting, physician referrals, and industrial testing.

Dr. Coughlin and his wife, Ruth, reside in rural Aberdeen. His daughter, Heather, works with him in the office. His son and family live in Cincinnati, OH, and his daughter and her family live in Wimberly, TX. We would be remiss, not to mention his six cats, all rescued.

Her expertise in the personalization of today's hearing aids for each patient's lifestyle, her caring nature, and her love of people are evident in every patient she sees. Listening to you and making a difference in your life is what she enjoys most about her work.
