Students perform diagnosis and treatment for a variety of speech and hearing disorders.
All populations are served, including both children and adults and a sliding scale is offered for those who cannot afford to pay full rates for services. In addition to student clinics, the program includes the PSU Audiology Clinic, a full-service audiology clinic serving the hearing healthcare needs of the Portland area as well as the rest of the state of Oregon. The PSU Audiology Clinic also operates the PSU Hearing Aid Bank in cooperation with local charitable organizations to provide hearing aids for the indigent. The PSU Audiology Clinic is located in Neuberger Hall on the Portland State University campus in downtown Portland, Oregon. The clinic is staffed by a clinical audiologist, audiology faculty, and graduate students.
