Meet Our Specialists
One of the things that differentiates Lake ENT is we have a full complement of medical providers on our staff including MD’s, APRN’s and PA’s. Whether a simple ear cleaning, a hearing aid fitting or a surgical procedure – we work together to diagnose the condition and treat it in the most appropriate manner. Our nationally certified Doctor of Audiology, licensed hearing aid specialists and the audiology staff at our facilities in The Villages®, Leesburg, and Tavares work together – along with the medical staff – to zero in on the cause, degree and most effective treatment for your hearing loss.
Audiology Staff
Audiology Staff | Paige Holt
With Lake ENT Since 1994
Paige has a long history of working with the hearing impaired population. Her grandmother was profoundly hearing impaired and even as a child, Paige remembers taking extra care to help her grandmother communicate with others. As a result of her love for her grandmother’s condition, both Paige and her sister are practicing Audiologists in Florida.
“I have a passion for helping others improve their communication. I also have a passion for hearing aids being used and not sitting in a drawer. I do not believe that there is a single best hearing aid on the market for every individual. I enjoy working with the many different hearing aid manufacturers to find the most appropriate hearing aid for each individual person’s needs. I also believe that education and discussing realistic expectations make the hearing aids a more successful and enjoyable addition to a person’s lifestyle.”
