APD & Sound Sensitivity Experts for Galway.
If you're in Galway or anywhere along the west coast and tinnitus, sound sensitivity, or auditory processing disorder has been put down to something you'll have to live with, there is more that can be done. Auditory Pathway is telehealth-first, requires no GP referral, and brings specialist care to your home.
Where Standard Audiology Clinics Fall Short
Specialist audiology for adults with APD, tinnitus, misophonia, or hyperacusis is hard to find in the west of Ireland. Most local services focus on hearing aids and routine testing, and for people in Connemara, Oranmore, Athenry, or further afield in Mayo and Clare, the nearest condition-specific care can mean a long journey and a longer wait. Galway's lively pubs, festivals, and busy streets can make these conditions even harder to live with. Auditory Pathway offers telehealth care across Ireland, bringing comprehensive evaluations, CBT-based management, and Buffalo Model auditory training to your home.

From clinic frustration to a practice that actually listens.
For most of her clinical career, Dr. Kaitlyn Lepore watched the same scene repeat itself. A patient walks in describing real, life-altering symptoms, such as a ringing that won't stop, sounds that feel physically painful, conversations that scramble in noisy rooms. The hearing test runs for ten minutes, the audiogram comes back roughly normal, and the patient is sent home with nothing more than "there's nothing more we can do."
“The line we kept giving people was that the test was clear, so there wasn’t much to do. That was never true. We just weren’t set up to test the right thing or to spend the time treating it.” — Dr. Lepore
Auditory Pathway was built on the understanding that hearing healthcare is about more than devices, and that too many people are living with conditions that can be genuinely improved. It was built to be the practice that appointment should have led to. Because the patients sent home with nothing weren't out of options. They were just in the wrong room.
