Dr. Trina Bedsaul, Au.D., has been involved with the family business of helping people hear better for her entire life. Her father, Ray Bedsaul, started his career with Beltone in1963 where he helped people hear better for over 50 years before retiring. Trina started going to the office with her father as a young girl and served cookies and lemonade to his patients. This time fostered a great love for helping people hear better.
Trina obtained an audiology degree, and a doctoral degree in Audiology as well as her license as an Audiologist and a Hearing Instrument Specialist in NC. She served on the NC Hearing Aid Dealers and Fitters Board for six years. All of this allowed her to help those in need as well as teach students entering the hearing healthcare field to become hearing instrument specialists.
Trina expanded her Father’s business and now operates over 14 offices in the Piedmont Triad and Mountain regions of North Carolina. Trina, along with her sister Mindy, continues the family tradition of helping people stay connected to their friends and family with better hearing.
