Greta C. Stamper, Au.D., Ph.D.

My name is Greta Stamper. I'm an audiologist at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. I have been here for 10 years now. I became interested in audiology because I had a hearing loss as a child. I had a very positive experience with my audiology team, and when I decided what I wanted to do with my life, I decided to want to help people who also had hearing difficulties. What I love about being an audiologist is being able to work as a team with both the patient and their families. Everybody's individual goals are different depending on what's important to them in their lives, and I enjoy working with them to identify what those aspects are and really help them achieve their best outcome. Through my work at Mayo Clinic, I really want to empower every patient I work with in order to achieve their best outcome that's important to them. Patients really, in order to do the best that they can, they need to identify what's important to them because what's important for one person is different than what's important for a different person, and so I really enjoy being able to help people identify what do they really want to achieve with their hearing health and how can I help them achieve that? I enjoy working at Mayo Clinic because here the needs of the patient come first. That's a value that I embrace each and every day, and I'm proud to be able to do that for individuals. I think the world is just a better place if we all reach out and help each other. My kind of little individual goal is every day to just leave the world a little bit better place than it was the day before. It can be something small, it can be something big, but I just really enjoy helping people.
