My name is Sudha Bhagia and I have been an audiologist for over 20 years. My journey as an audiologist started in India when I shadowed an ENT surgeon in high school. I saw the Audiology and Speech Therapy department at the medical college and applied to their undergraduate program. After completing my Bachelor’s in Audiology and Speech Pathology, I pursued my Master's degree in Audiology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Since then I have worked at a variety of clinical settings like the VA, ENT clinics, hospitals, and audiology private practices in several states. During this time, audiology transitioned to a doctoral level profession and I received my clinical Doctorate in Audiology from Salus University, Pennsylvania in 2008. My passion for audiology is driven by helping patients to hear better using science and technology, combined with the art of caring and creating solutions that are appropriate for individual patient needs. I have been affiliated with Sonus Hearing  Care Professionals as a dispensing audiologist and diagnostic audiologist for the past nine years and I am excited about my new position as dispensing audiologist and clinic manager for the West Hills location.
