Meet Karen Michaud, Au.D., CCC-A

Karen has been with Grand Rapids Ear Nose & Throat since May of 2015. She works primarily at the 44th St. office. She received her Bachelors degree in 2011 and her Doctorate degree in Audiology in 2015 from Ohio University. She holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association and an Audiology license in the state of Michigan. Karen loves working with a wide variety of people of all ages to help diagnose and treat their hearing loss. Working for Grand Rapids Ear Nose & Throat allows her to do just that! She believes that recommendations for helping treat those with hearing loss go beyond test results. Karen feels it is equally, if not more, important to listen to patients to find out their lifestyle and communication needs in order to make the best, most customized recommendation for each patient. In addition, she enjoys staying up-to-date on current hearing aid technology and research within the field to give her patients the best care possible.Outside of the office, Karen loves to stay busy. If she”s not traveling to Ohio to visit family and loved ones, she loves to explore her new home of Grand Rapids and Michigan. She loves shopping, getting hooked on new Netflix series, attending sporting events, and trying new Pinterest recipes.
