Meet Valerie J. Marcotte, M.A., CCC-A, ABAC

Valerie Marcotte received her Bachelor of Arts degree from The Ohio State University in 1999 in the field of Speech & Hearing Sciences. She furthered her education at OSU by obtaining her Master of Arts degree in Audiology in 2001. She ventured up to Detroit, Michigan for her Clinical Fellowship Year at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan.

She moved to the Dayton area in 2001 and now has 25+ years of ENT based experience working with hearing aid patients, cochlear implant patients, and vestibular/balance patients. She has decided that she would like to specifically focus her attention on hearing impaired patients that could benefit from wearing hearing aids.

Valerie has maintained the following:

• ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence since 2002

(requires 30 hours of continuing education triennially)

• Ohio Board licensure in Audiology since 2002

(requires 20 hours of continuing education biennially)

• American Board of Audiology Certification since 2004

(requires 20 hours of continuing education annually)

Outside of the office, Valerie enjoys spending time with her amazingly supportive fiancé and her daughter who attends Wright State University. Valerie enjoys working on game/puzzle books, assembling puzzles, and has a slight obsession with Halloween decorations. Her favorite movie series is Halloween, but the Jaws and Jurassic Park franchises are tied for second.
