From left: Casey Allen, AuD; Cori Palmer, AuD; Susan Timna, AuD; Katy Laws, AuD; Sara King, AuD OUR MISSION: is to improve a patient’s quality of life by improving their hearing health and addressing their communication needs. Better hearing means better overall wellness. Untreated hearing loss has been linked to dementia, increased fatigue and increased depression. Our award-winning team of Doctors of Audiology has been serving Savannah for more than 30 years.

WE HEAR YOU: when you say that your hearing loss is not always noticeable to you, but your family and friends are complaining. Hearing loss typically presents itself by not understanding the conversation, especially when there is competing noise or people talking in the background. What is not so commonly known is that studies show that untreated hearing loss leads to earlier memory problems and cognitive decline. WE ADVISE YOU: to visit us for a hearing test to get a baseline of your hearing and to discuss your communication needs, from not understanding the TV to not hearing your loved ones. It is important that you see an actual Doctor of Audiology to diagnose and remediate your hearing problems and guide you through a sea of misinformation.

WE ARE HERE TO HELP: you get back the clarity of speech or give you the appropriate referral if your loss can be medically treated. There is a vast array of related medical problems that have links to hearing loss that are missed due to patients thinking that hearing loss is natural as we get older. e o er complimentary in o fice hearin screenings, consultations and demonstrations of the newest in hearing health technology. ENT physicians available by appointment.

OUR REAL JOBS ARE BEING: curators of Savannah culture. Natives and newcomers on our staff are all avid, active ambassadors of the unparalleled Savannah lifestyle.

WE ARE PROUD OF: being Savannah’s premier city magazine for 33 years. Each year, we publish six Savannah magazines, three HOMES issues, our annual Southern Coastal Weddings and a variety of publications for the Savannah Area Chamber of Commerce.

OUR FAVORITE DAYS: are when we hear from readers and partners who say someone pointed them out in a story or turned to them after seeing their advertisement. Or when an article or cover is shared or tagged on Instagram. Or when a transplant calls for a recommendation for a doctor, restaurant or interior designer and wants a copy of our annual Best of Savannah reader surveys. Long before social media, Savannah magazine was and remains the real avannah in encer.

LEARN: that we helped create the best-selling avor o eopold s ce ream. n honor o o r 25th anniversary, we teamed up with Leopold’s to create “Savannah Socialite.” Naming this concoction of chocolate, bourbon-infused caramel and pecans was as fun as the taste tests!

WE HOPE MORE WOMEN WILL: buy local. By supporting local shops, restaurants and business professionals and services, you are investing in on our community.

MY CLIENTS DO BUSINESS WITH ME BECAUSE: I am honest and meticulous. I study their faces and take the time to understand their facial movements and shapes. I utilize my background in art to provide natural, balanced, beautiful

results. – Bouchard

RECEIVED FROM A PATIENT WAS: that t rned a ood marria e into a terrific marriage. I had a patient who was extremely insecure about her body and would never let her husband turn the lights on when they were together. That changed considerably after her breast augmentation. – Davies

MY TOOLS OF THE TRADE: are all the injectables, including Restylane, Juvederm, Botox/Dysport, Sculptra, Radiesse, multiple laser platforms and medical- grade skincare. – Bouchard

MY PERSONAL BEAUTY SECRET: is always take care of your skin! Keep your daily beauty regimen fairly simple. I use medical grade products twice daily and keep my skin rejuvenated by getting procedures at regular intervals with our estheticians and injector specialist. – Davies

I’VE LEARNED THE HARD WAY THAT: part of achieving a reasonable work/life balance is learning to ask for help. I’ve always taken pride in my independence, but as a working mom running multiple businesses, I know the importance of having an experienced, capable team in place. I am so fortunate to have found excellent staff who help ensure that my patients have the best possible experience once they walk through our doors.

RECEIVED: was to surround myself with people who know more than I do. I’ve tried to do that in all areas of my life. Although I trust my instincts, I also believe that being intellectually curious and open to learning from others is the key to professional success and personal growth.

I’M THANKFUL FOR: my amazing patients and wonderful family and friends who support and encourage me. Seeing the positive change that chiropractic can make in people’s lives day in and day out has brought me so much joy. I’m thankful to be in a profession that gives me the ability to truly make a difference by improving people’s quality of life.

I HOPE MORE WOMEN WILL: feel empowered to chase their dreams, create the lives they envision and take care of themselves first y takin char e o their health.
