Dr. Allison Fox (Audiologist / Owner)
For over 30 years I have been happy to introduce myself as an Audiologist. I earned my Masters’ of Science Degree in Audiology in 1985 and began my career as a Regional Audiologist for the Manitoba Government. In 1998 we headed west and made our new home in this lovely city of Red Deer. For the next 12 years I worked with Dr. Susan Hopf and her team at Red Deer Clinical Audiologists. During this time I had the pleasure of establishing many personal and professional relationships and I am grateful to have also achieved a significant professional goal in 2006, when I completed my Doctoral Degree in Audiology through the A.T Still University of Health Sciences.
In the fall of 2010 Strategic Hearing Solution was created – a professional hearing care centre where the needs of individual clients are of paramount importance. Each day provides me with new opportunities to help people improve their communication abilities through minimizing the effects of hearing loss.
When I came to Red Deer I had no way of knowing that Central Alberta would really become my home. And although I grew up in Saskatchewan (go Riders!) I have come to realize that this is where I truly belong. Between raising 3 children, working with our valued customers and generally enjoying all that life has to offer, my life is very full and extremely rewarding.
Dr. Susan Hopf (Audiologist)
I am very excited to have been working with Dr. Allison Fox for the past 4 years. As the previous owner of Red Deer Clinical Audiologists, I bring 30 years of experience to the Audiology/Hearing Healthcare profession. I am passionate about working hard to meet the needs of the hearing impaired in Central Alberta and believe totally that the best hearing aid is the one that is worn.
I graduated from the A.T. Still University of Health Sciences in 2006. My interest in the advances in hearing health and hearing aid technology was furthered significantly during my Doctoral studies. I believe that as an Audiologist one should be passionate about finding the right amplification solutions for those living with hearing loss.
I have been thoroughly enjoying connecting with past clients. I also love meeting new clients daily at Strategic Hearing Solutions where we firmly believe in service above self.

Who is the voice at the other end of the line when you call the office of Strategic Hearing Solutions in Red Deer? Chances are… It is me, Maja! I am the person who will happily take care of booking your appointments and make sure you are well looked after. I traded Central Europe for Central Alberta in 1991 and this is where my husband and I have raised our three children and found our happy place.
I joined the Strategic Hearing Solutions team nearly 4 years ago. I love working with such a great group of talented women and, of course, our amazing clients!
Nikki Howard
Hi, my name is Nikki and I joined the Strategic Hearing Solutions team in April of 2012. I moved to Red Deer from a small farming and oilfield village in 1996 to attend the Red Deer College. I received my Certificate in Business and Office Administration (with a specialization in Information Processing) and have been in the finance/bookkeeping industry for 17 years.
When I am not in the office with the rest of our lovely, fun-loving ladies I love to be outdoors with my husband and our 90lb “baby” – our puppy, Gretzky.
Marcy Hughes
Hi, my name is Marcy, the “new kid on the block” at Strategic Hearing Solutions. I started in the fall of 2014 at the Lacombe office and help out occasionally in Red Deer. I have many years of experience in the reception / customer service area and especially enjoy interacting with our clients. Living on a farm near Lacombe, if not chasing cows I am chasing one of my five lovely grandchildren – or baking, quilting or scrapbooking! It is a blessing to be acquainted with and to work with such a great group of young ladies.
Melody Carberry
I have taken great pleasure working in the service industry my whole life and it has been my privilege to work here at Strategic Hearing Solutions. I am the face of the lab where all the in-house repairs are taken care of along with product ordering and receiving. I take great pride in working towards optimal client care and being part of the process here at Strategic Hearing Solutions.
I obtained my Certificate for Industrial Audiometry (CIAT) in 2013 and like to keep current with new technologies and up to date with the products and services that our suppliers can help us provide.
I have resided in the Central Alberta area for approximately 32 years along with my husband, Al. We have 3 wonderful teenagers and feel blessed to live just outside this amazing city. So, for those of you who already know me, it has been and will continue to be my pleasure to work with all of you. And to those of you whom I have not yet met, I would like to extend a sincere welcome and hope that you will soon be a part of the experience here at Strategic Hearing Solutions
