Dr. Taneil C. Dodsworth, Au.D. is a story enthusiast. She received her bachelor’s in radio-television-film at the University of Texas at Austin. However, the stories of people and how hearing loss and balance issues affect their narratives compelled her to join the field of audiology.
Dr. Dodsworth received her doctorate in audiology at the University of Utah. She specializes in hearing and balance disorders and working with patients who are on the autism spectrum and those with dementia.
Her personal mission is to ensure that patients of all backgrounds do not miss out on any part of their stories due to auditory or balance impairments. In her free time, you can find her horseback riding, hiking, ice skating, reading and knitting.
