Search is on for top audiologist

A countrywide search has begun to find the 2013 UK Audiologist of the Year.

The competition, run by hearing aid battery manufacturer Rayovac and hearing care publication Audio Infos encourages patients to nominate hearing care professionals who have provided exceptional levels of support and service.

Rayovac marketing director Paula Brinson-Pyke said: 'We are looking forward to receiving each of the many entries and reading people's inspiring stories. Over the past six years many people have shared their stories and experiences with us and, as in previous years, no doubt the judges will find it extremely hard to choose a winner.'

Entries can be made online or via post and votes can be cast until July 12. Further information is available at the competition website, www.audiologistoftheyear.co.uk
