Jaclyn Scagnelli, our newest Audiologist, joined NJ Audiology in June 2010. She recently moved to Lacey Township from Queens, NY. Jaclyn graduated from Iona College in New Rochelle, New York with a B.A. in Speech Language Pathology and Audiology. She recently graduated from the City University of New York and obtained her Doctorate of Audiology in May 2011. She has interned at Long Island Jewish Medical Center and a private Ear, Nose and Throat practice in New York City. Jaclyn's primary interests are in diagnostic testing, hearing aid dispensing, and vestibular assessment and treatment. Jaclyn's dissertation was titled "Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions in Adult Smokers and Non-Smokers with Normal Hearing." The goal of her dissertation was to attempt to find a precursor to hearing loss as this could potentially lead to a possible prevention or delay of hearing impairment. On her spare time she enjoys traveling, dancing, boating, and hiking. Jaclyn has found a home here in New Jersey and plans to continue helping those living with hearing and balance disorders.
