Saskatoon Hearing & Audiology Clinic

Tara Collins obtained a Master of Science in audiology from Dalhousie University, School of Communication Disorders in 2008, and a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Cell Biology and Genetics from UBC in 1999. She is a member in good standing for continuing education units (CEUs) with the licensing body Saskatchewan Association of Speech Language Pathologists and Audiologists (SASLPA).  Tara was certified in 2008 by Speech-Language & Audiology Canada (SAC-formerly CASLPA) and is a member of the Canadian Audiology Association (CAA).

Tara pursued the field of audiology following her own extremely positive, life-changing experience obtaining hearing aids after struggling for many years with gradually progressive, genetic hearing loss and its increasingly negative effects.

As an audiologist, Tara strives to increase awareness of the negative effects of untreated hearing loss and encourages greater acceptance of hearing devices in society by keeping hers visible to others. Tara is known to wear bright and sparkly earmolds, and adds decorations to her hearing aids to bring even more attention to them. Tara wants to show that they are not only necessary medical devices that improve her life, but they also express her personality!
