Kortney Mathiesen, Au.D.

Dr. Kortney Mathiesen, Au.D., is devoted to helping people reconnect with their friends and family through better hearing. She knows that untreated hearing loss contributes to social isolation, and she is grateful for the ability to give others a chance to enjoy the things they’ve been missing. Her first introduction to audiology and the serious, but often overlooked implications of untreated hearing loss was on a study abroad trip to Belize. There, she led a government-based language camp while performing community-based rehab and hearing screenings. She fell in love with learning about the complexities of the ear and dedicated her career to helping those with hearing loss lead richer, more connected lives. 

Dr. Mathiesen obtained her Doctor of Audiology degree from Pacific University in Hillsboro, Oregon. She never gets tired of the thrill of witnessing the instant gratification of helping people improve their hearing in as little as one appointment, and as a Nevada County native, she finds it rewarding to now be able to do this while serving the community she grew up in. 

When she’s not working, Dr. Mathiesen loves spending time with her friends and family, and her Australian shepherd, Mayzie. She loves to ski and enjoys the many wonderful outdoor activities that Nevada County has to offer. An avid traveler, she’s explored Thailand and Europe, including London, Amsterdam, Prague, Vienna, Greece, and Italy, and is excited to travel to more places, with Spain and Portugal at the top of her list.
