Meet Dr. Alina F. Linthicum

I am a Clearwater/Saint Petersburg native and love to call this area home. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders from the University of Florida- Gainesville in 2010. After graduation, I moved back home and completed my Doctorate of Audiology at the University of South Florida – Tampa in 2015. I started my career as a clinical Audiologist at a local Ear, Nose, and Throat practice where I had been working since 2013 as an audiology assistant and where I completed my final clinical rotation with Dr. Burton.

In 2017, Mary and I decided to open Hear Here Audiology. It has truly been an amazing experience and allows me to thrive creatively and honor the importance of each patient. I believe being an Audiologist is a privilege and value being part of a patient’s journey to stay connected to their loved one’s and improve their quality of life through hearing. I am dedicated to helping patients find the right hearing solution for their specific needs.

When not with my Hear Here family, I am spending quality time with my wonderful husband and 2 beautiful children. My husband and I met when I was 9 years old and we have been best friends ever since. My daughter, Penelope, and son, Xander, keep me full of joy and laughter. I come from a big Italian family and if you have ever seen the movie “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” you get it. There are family gatherings weekly – always with red sauce and wine! As a family, we love traveling, getting together with friends, and spending time on the water.
