I’m your host, Dr. Lilach Saperstein and I’m very excited today to be speaking with Dr. Ruth Reisman in New York. I know that many, many of you have questions about auditory processing disorder, the process of getting diagnosis, what the treatment is, what even is auditory processing disorder in kids and adults. So, I’m really excited for a very informative conversation. First, let me welcome Dr. Ruth. How are you? Welcome. [00:00:34] Dr. Ruth Reisman: Thank you. Thank you so much. It’s a pleasure to be here and to have the opportunity to speak with you and present on this platform. I am, as you said, from New York. I support the audiology field in multiple aspects. In addition to my private practice where I do work with individuals that have auditory processing disorders predominantly focusing on individuals that actually have. ADHD as a comorbid disorder. And I’ll explain as I go into that, as to why that became my area of focus or a specialty. [00:01:06] Dr. Lilach Saperstein: I have to tell you right away that that Venn diagram I discussed that Venn diagram on the regular, so we’re going to go into that for sure.

So, we support patients with their implants as well and, and aural rehabilitation, just like auditory processing comes into play in that arena as well. And then one of my favorite things to do is to teach at the university and I teach multiple classes on, on all of these wonderful things, aural rehab, hearing aids, so I’m happy to talk about anything always related to audiology.

I guess audiology kind of chose me, which I, which I always say as I go through the field, all of these areas kind of choose me. Initially I had started actually in pharmacy, so I was doing a lot of science-based courses. I actually witnessed my mother suffer through hearing loss, so she had bilateral otosclerosis as she was having children and, and as we were growing up it got progressively worse. So, I’ve seen her go through the process of diagnosis, getting hearing aids and then getting surgery and her hearing actually going back to normal. So, it was a really interesting, to witness her go through all of those stages and I became really very interested in the field of audiology. It started of course with, with speech therapy, like the majority of audiologists start, and I kind of got into the field that way, but I ...
