APD & Sound Sensitivity Experts for Albany.
If you're in Albany or the Capital Region and have been searching for real answers on tinnitus, sound sensitivity, or auditory processing disorder, Auditory Pathway was built for you. Care is delivered fully over telehealth, with no referral and no drive up the Northway, from an audiologist who treats these conditions full-time.
What Most Audiology Clinics Aren't Built For
Across Albany, Schenectady, Troy, and Saratoga Springs, audiology care is easy enough to find for hearing aids and routine hearing tests. Specialist support for adult APD, tinnitus, misophonia, or hyperacusis is a different story. Many adults in the Capital Region spend months between appointments, only to hear that their results are normal and there's little else to try. Auditory Pathway is licensed throughout New York State and offers a different route: a comprehensive evaluation, a personalized plan, and ongoing one-on-one support, all from home and on a schedule that fits around work and family.
No Waitlist
No referral chain to wait on. Book your first appointment directly and begin care from home.
0 Commute
No Northway traffic or downtown parking. Sessions take place on your laptop, around your schedule.
100%
Of practice time dedicated to APD, tinnitus, and sound sensitivity, rather than fit in between routine hearing tests.
Five specialized pathways
for the conditions
most clinics overlook.
Every program begins with a real evaluation, and not a five-minute screen. Each links to a dedicated page where you can explore what to expect, how it works, and what it costs.

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.
