My bio
Hello, my name is Stephanie Matthews, AUD, and I’m an audiologist at the UF Health Hearing Center. Some of my clinical interests include balance disorders, hearing loss, and tinnitus.
Originally, I went to school for elementary education. After spending some time in that field, I sought a career change and discovered audiology. As I began to learn about the ear and how hearing and balance issues can negatively affect people’s lives, I realized that being an audiologist was the right career for me.
I perform diagnostic audiological testing in conjunction with the Ear, Nose, and Throat service at UF Health. Many of our patients have complex issues, and I find it rewarding to help them feel comfortable and ensure they are receiving the best care possible.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, crafting, being outdoors, taking care of animals, and watching Gators sports.
