AUDIOLOGIST
Liz Brassine, Au.D.
Audiologist
McKinney audiologist Liz Brassine has earned a long list of
credentials after her name––Au.D. CCC-A, FAAA––but
opening up her own audiology practice 12 years ago is
among her proudest accomplishments. With a kind,
caring, and compassionate manner, Dr. Brassine and her
talented team at Hearing Services of McKinney have
greatly improved the quality of life for their patients
utilizing the latest in hearing innovations.
With an innate love of math and science, she started
working for an audiologist in high school before earning
Master of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in
Audiology from Northwestern University. After graduate
school, Dr. Brassine went on to work for two audiology
practices before spending 10 years as the national training
manager of a leading global hearing aid manufacturer. In
2002, she obtained her Au.D. (Doctor of Audiology) from A.
T. Still University.
In the decade Dr. Brassine spent training other hearing
care professionals around the country in the fitting and
dispensing of digital hearing aid technology, her
understanding of the devices grew exponentially and
provided her exceptional insight into their increasing
capabilities. “I was in the nitty gritty of hearing aids day in
and day out,” says Dr. Brassine, whose knowledge of
hearing software, technology, and products is quite
extensive.
With over 36 million Americans suffering from hearing
loss, and as the third most common health related
problem in America, Dr. Brassine opened Hearing Services
of McKinney to address this growing problem. To be able
to serve an area near and dear to her heart, one where
she’s chosen to make her home, is an added benefit. She
knew her background both in hearing aid manufacturing
and in private practice would make a difference in
McKinney––and it has.

When Hearing Services of McKinney’s doors opened in
2006, it was the only audiology practice in McKinney. “In
the beginning, it was just myself and a secretary”.
Meanwhile, Cassandra Wilson, Au.D, joined Hearing
Services of McKinney eight years ago followed by Lisette
Jackson, Au.D. three years ago. Together, they offer
personal attention, service, and hearing aid knowledge
that you can’t get from a chain or big box store.
