About Us
We opened Sikorski Hearing Aid Center, Inc. based on the belief that everyone deserves to hear better no matter his or her budget, lifestyle, or hearing needs. Simply put, there is no center like ours. We don’t believe in selling hearing aids; rather, we believe in educating people on what constitutes hearing impairment, coping strategies, treatment options, instruments that may provide help, and access to medical professionals regarding surgical options.

Samantha currently owns and operates a hearing aid practice with two locations in Northern Wisconsin. Though not a medical doctor, Samantha works with many Audiologists, physicians and ENT’s to bridge the gap that often exists in hearing healthcare. Samantha specializes in practice administration (with regard to managed care participation as well as initiating the best practices for Hearing Care Professionals) and patient education.
Samantha got her start in the industry as an Occupational Hearing Conservationist in 2001. After developing Endolymphatic Hydrops in 2002, she switched gears from hearing loss prevention to hearing loss treatment options and became licensed by the state of Wisconsin as a Hearing Instrument Specialist. She obtained her Audioprosthology designation in 2006 after completing a 13-month program and 120-hour practicum. She worked for various private practices before opening her own practice in Spooner on December 8th, 2014.


Bridget
Patient Care Manager
Bridget has spent the majority of her life here in Rice Lake. She was first hired as a Scheduler and quickly moved to the role of Patient Care Coordinator. After a successful year in that role, Bridget was promoted to Patient Care Manager where she currently works in tandem with Ms. Sikorski to ensure our patient's needs are being met. From the new patient intake process to patient's who are electing to upgrade older technology - it all gets done because Bridget handles it.
While Bridget did not come into this profession with background in the medical field, she has an intimate understanding of the challenges of hearing loss as she, herself, wears hearing aids. Bridget is a naturally caring person who treats every patient fairly and with respect. She has five children and lives with her husband here in Rice Lake.
Val
Office Assistant
Val is an energetic, kind, and compassionate human being who spent a large majority of her career working in business administration. She came out of retirement to help Sikorski Hearing on a temporary basis - that was two years ago. Val is mostly part-time now but we are so thankful she lends her organizational skills to the practice.
Val currently resides in Sarona with her husband, Bill.



Kathryn
Accountant
Kathryn is, simply put, amazing. She is the person who consistently monitors manufacturers invoices to make sure there are no mistakes, as well as monitors patient invoices to ensure that no errors have occurred. She works along side Samantha to negotiate pricing to save our patients money.
Even though Kathryn works at Sikorski Hearing on a part-time basis, she is the first to jump in whenever a patient has a need. Her caring, compassionate personality is what makes her an incredible asset to the team. Kathryn has been with Sikorski Hearing since 2015.
Kathryn lives in Spooner with her husband, Bob.
Lesley
Accounts Payable Clerk
Lesley is new to the Rice Lake area and recently joined our team as a part-time Accounts Payable Clerk. While her position does not allow her time to interact with patients, she serves a very important role at the office - she makes sure our bills get paid on time!
