Patrick E Gallagher, MBA

Hello and welcome to members of the American Academy of Audiology.  I joined the Academy in March 2021 and I am honored to be working with dedicated volunteer leaders and talented colleagues.

As the executive director, I strive to help ensure that the Academy effectively advocates for the profession and advances initiatives that facilitate the ability of audiologists to practice successfully.

I have held various positions at several health-care associations with a focus on shaping a wide range of advocacy, reimbursement, and regulatory issues. The Academy is the professional home for all audiologists, and I am committed to strengthening the value of membership and harnessing the collective voice of members through advocacy, education, and public awareness initiatives.
