Associated Audiologists has opened a new location in the Northland.

The new office is at 8350 N. St. Clair Ave., Ste. 175, in Kansas City, Mo., and it recently hosted a ribbon-cutting with the Northland Regional Chamber of Commerce.

“We’re very enthusiastic about expanding to the Northland,” company president Tim Steele in the most recent Associated Audiologists’ newsletter. “We have a large number of patients who currently drive to one of our other offices to see us. This location will be much more convenient for them.”

Associated Audiologists has hired Lainey Lake, who will be based at the new Northland office. Lake previously worked with Advanced Hearing Care in Mount Pleasant, S.C., and before that, she did an externship with Associated Audiologists. Lake earned a doctor of audiology degree from the University of Kansas.

It’s been more than 25 years since Associated Audiologists was founded by Jim Wise. In addition to the new Northland office, the company operates five other locations: Overland Park, Prairie Village, Leavenworth, Manhattan and Shawnee Mission. Its staff assists people with hearing, dizziness and balance disorders. Associated Audiologists is a 25 Under 25® alumnus from 2007.
