Kathie Tran, Au.D., specializes in comprehensive diagnostic audiological exams for adults and pediatrics, hearing aids and Earlens. She earned her Doctor of Audiology from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and her Bachelor of Science in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology from the University of Texas at Dallas. She is certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
Growing up, Katie often saw older family members become withdrawn during gatherings, assumed to be simply uninterested or overwhelmed by the noise. But when she discovered audiology, she realized many of them were likely experiencing hearing loss—and that it didn’t have to be that way. This realization sparked her passion for audiology and the life-changing impact it can have. She has also noticed a significant lack of awareness around hearing health in her community, especially within the Vietnamese population due to language barriers. Kathie hopes to bridge that gap by providing accessible, compassionate care and education in both English and Vietnamese.
Kathie is on staff for Children’s Ministry at Redeemer Baptist Church of Plano. She enjoys spending sunny days hiking, running, playing tennis or pickleball, and unwinding with board games and company on rainy days.
