Founder Dr. Laura Vinopal
Laura Vinopal, Au.D.
Doctor of Audiology
I often receive comments that I always have a smile on my face and can brighten anyone’s mood. I think the single best way to do great work is to love what you do. That is why I consider my work to be not a job, but my passion. When I began this career path, I was unclear on how I could make an impact on human connection. I quickly came to realize just how emotional and personal this journey is for many. I then knew, without a doubt, my mission was to create a personalized patient experience in my practice that is paramount.
Education
Let me take a minute to tell you about me so you can get to know me even before you step foot in our door. I grew up in Mauston, WI, where my parents operated a local tool and die shop. That is where I first learned a good work ethic from my parents. I attended our local parochial school through the eighth grade and graduated at the home of the Golden Eagles in Mauston. The next year I started my undergraduate Bachelor of Science at UWSP. GO POINTERS!!! After my undergraduate studies, I achieved my doctoral degree from a joint AuD program from UW Stevens Point and UW Madison in 2007.
After college, I returned to the area with my husband, Frank, and worked in a local hospital for several years. Frank and I have three children together, Sena (12), Jack (8), and Mary (6). In 2013, I opened Professional Hearing Care. I am a founding member of Excellence in Audiology.
Frank and I feel fortunate to have deep roots in the community. Frank is a partner at MBE CPA’s, and you’ll often see us volunteering and attending local events together. As you read above, I am passionate about making a difference for the hearing impaired in my community and take pride in staying up to date with the ever-changing technology. When I am not in the office, I enjoy my three children keeping me on my toes and challenged, traveling, running, biking, boating, and being outdoors.
