She began her career at the University of California, San Francisco where she provided hearing and vestibular diagnostics, tinnitus evaluation and rehabilitation, as well as dispensing services to pediatric and adult populations. She broadened her skill set by pursuing specialty training in intra-operative neurophysiological monitoring with a variety of surgical specialties serving multiple Bay Area hospitals.

When she isn’t at work, you might find her playing with her dog, snowboarding, surfing, riding her bike, traveling, sewing, and spending quality time with her niece and nephews. 
 
 
We were so happy to welcome her to San Carlos Elms today and every month to check Residents hearing aides. She will also educate Residents who might need hearing aides and are not sure of the cost with their insurance.
Thank you Dr. Ramsay for coming in and enriching our world!
