Meet Julie O. Johns, Au.D.

Dr. Julie Johns received her audiology doctorate from the University of Florida after completing her masters at San Diego State University. She is thrilled to be a new Cochlear Implant recipient (November 2023)! She is excited about her progress so far, and is optimistic about continued improvements over time. She is a Bi-Modal user, wearing a hearing aid in one ear and the Cochlear Implant in the other.

Dr. Johns joined Synapse Advanced Audiology in 2016 to bring her passion for improving patients’ lives through identifying hearing challenges in important aspects of people’s lives such as family relationships, social gatherings, sports and fitness, music and theater events, learning opportunities, community engagement, and work situations. 

Dr. Johns began experiencing hearing loss as a teenager, and is a long-term hearing aid wearer.  She understands the effort needed to communicate when it’s hard to hear and can identify with her patient’s struggles, apprehension, and delight found through dealing with hearing loss and taking on hearing aid use to reconnect and engage with people and sound.
