Early in life, audiologist Dr. Lorraine Rein, AuD. realized that she wanted to dedicate herself to working with people and making a tangible, meaningful difference in their lives. With a passion for communication and human connection, she decided to study speech and language pathology at Hofstra University. As a class requirement, she had to observe the day-to-day of professional audiologists, working alongside them. As she puts it, “After one observation, I was hooked!” Her past positions include clinical supervisor for doctoral students and Hofstra University and chief of audiology at Parker Jewish Institute for Health Care and Rehabilitation.
Dr. Rein has also worked for the Long Island Hearing Screening Program, a nonprofit organization providing hearing screenings to preschool-age children. Now, she uses her extensive experience and sincere compassion to provide the best solutions for those coping with hearing difficulty. Dr. Rein knows better than anyone how easy it can be for her patients’ connections to their friends and loved ones to deteriorate when hearing becomes difficult, so she’s made it her personal mission to keep everyone connected. Outside of work, Dr. Rein is an avid dog rescuer, and she lives with her husband of 35 years, an expert mechanic and history buff who restores WWII military vehicles as a hobby. She’s also a loving mother. Aside from her years of work restoring communication to her patients, she says that her greatest accomplishment has been her raising “two boys who have become kind, honorable men”. Most of all, Dr. Rein is excited to meet all her new patients, learn their stories, and change their lives for the better.
Did you know that hearing loss can effect all ages? Hearing loss can be caused by many factors directly related to overall health. Sometimes medications, diet, fit- ness, or smoking can even cause you to develop hearing loss. Below is a common myth provided by Better Hearing Institute. Myth: Hearing loss affects only “old people” and is merely a sign of aging.Only 35 percent of people with hearing loss are older than age 64. The truth is there are close to six million people in the U.S. between the ages of 18 and 44 with hearing loss, and more than one million are school age. Hearing loss affects all age groups. Everyone has hair cells located in the ear that are responsible for sending signals to your brain. Once they are damaged, they can not simply be re-grown, no matter your age.
