About the Clinic:
 

    The University of Akron's Auditory-Verbal (A-V) Clinic continues to
       be one of the first and few university-based (A-V) centers providing
       students with clinical experiences in applying the guiding principles
       of the Auditory-Verbal Philosophy.

    The Clinic is directed by two certified auditory-verbal therapists
       (CERT.AVT).

    The Clinic enrolls 15-20 children per semester.

    Two-thirds of the children wear a cochlear implant.

    In 2001, the clinic celebrated its 20th anniversary since its inception
       in 1981 by professor of audiology, Dr. Carol Flexer.

    Every graduate speech-language pathology and audiology student
       has an opportunity to participate in the Auditory-Verbal Clinic.

    The Auditory-Verbal Scholarship Fund offers assistantships to
       exemplary graduate students demonstrating a commitment to
       pediatrics.

    15 master level graduates from The University of Akron School
       of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology have chosen to
       specialize in auditory-verbal professions.
