Audiologist Gifts
Audiologists are specialized therapists who both treat and assess hearing disorders in adults and children. The field of audiology is closely linked to that of speech and language pathologists. To be a good audiologist, one must have knowledge of speech and language pathology. Understanding what it is that an audiologist does can be helpful in finding just the right gift for the audiologist in your life. Many gifts are available online that are specific to the field of audiology.

Audiologist Duties
-
Audiologists assess a patient's central auditory processing abilities and determine the degree and nature of hearing function and how much hearing loss there may be. They also assist patients with the fitting of hearing aids, as well as provide counseling and help with speech and reading. Audiologists may help assess noise levels in industrial working environments and may oversee and implement programs for hearing conservation in those environments.
Audiologist Clothing
-
A wide range of T-shirts and sweat shirts are available online that have audiologist-specific logos and sayings printed on them. The most common is the "I love (heart) audiology" T-shirt. Another says "Audiologist -- will work for cupcakes." You can come up with your own original audiology-related saying and have the T-shirt printed up at an online service that will then send the gift on to the audiologist. Have a look at the duties that an audiologist performs and try to find inspiration there for your original idea.

Mugs and Key Chains
-
Like T-shirts and other clothing, mugs available online with audiology-related images or words. You could pick something fun, like a mug that has the image of a chicken and the words "audiology chick" printed below. Another available mug has "instant audiologist -- just add coffee" emblazoned across the mug. Key chains are both practical and fun. A key chain attached with an ear image or audiology icon works well.
Audiologist Necktie
-
For the male audiologist who heads out to big corporations to assess industrial noise levels, an audiologist necktie could be a nice idea. Again, there are websites that offer services where you can have your witty idea printed on a silk tie, or you can buy pre-existing audiology ties that have multiple audiology icons printed on them. Another audiology tie has images of ears printed on it
Eco-Friendly Canvas Shopping Bags
-
A practical gift is always useful. Try an eco-friendly canvas shopping bag that is audiology-related. This could be an image of a cross-section through an ear or a feature as simple as "I love audiology" or "Audiologists recycle" or "I'd rather be doing Audiology."
