Hearing Specialists
Nikki Davis
Senior Audiologist
Nikki joined Hearbase in October 2012. She is responsible for the private hearing aid service at our Folkestone branch. As this is one of our busiest locations, managing the centre at Folkestone is a full-time job and Nikki does not routinely work outside of the Folkestone branch.
She was originally employed in an admin role but was supported by the company to undertake a two-year audiology degree at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge. After graduating she became part of the clinical team and continues to develop her professional skills. Nikki has gained a reputation across the company for her caring and compassionate approach and high levels of patient satisfaction.
Nikki says that she has enjoyed the transfer in roles within Hearbase. She found the degree challenging but rewarding and has developed her skills to the level that she is now working exclusively with private patients within the company.
Over the past 25 years Nikki has developed roles in retail and customer services management, recruitment and business development. These transferable skills have given Nikki the confidence to develop her career as a clinical audiologist.
Ashleigh Bullen
Ear care technician
Ashleigh was born and raised in Canterbury where she grew up with her dad and step-mum who are nurses.
“Other family members work in the NHS and care sector, so quite naturally, I found myself working in care and stayed for around eight years,” said Ashleigh. “I worked in care homes, out it in the community and in an agency.
“I then obtained a bachelor’s degree in English and moved to a school to see if teaching was for me. But I found I missed the care sector too much! From all my experience, including the school, there has been a common factor I’ve seen that has isolated people and got them down a lot – that was hearing!
“Hearing is such an essential factor in everyday life and seeing individuals struggle with this really got me interested in helping with hearing loss. I was amazed to find out how many people were affected by ear wax alone. So, here I am, hoping to help some people hear even just a little bit better by relieving them of their wax. I am so excited to embark on this journey and hope to go into further training to become an audiologist.”
