Richard R. Namikas, Au.D. | Doctor of Audiology
Bachelors of Science - University of Wisconsin Stevens Point
Masters of Science - Purdue
Doctor of Audiology - Arizona School of Health Sciences
Dr. Namikas is an Army veteran and moved to Venice in 1991. Since then he has developed his private practice with a focus on being a truly independent audiologist. By being able to purchase from any manufacturer he is able to put the focus on the patient, where it belongs. His Spanish language skills have been useful on many occasions.
When he is not practicing audiology or involved in Lions Club activities he spends time gardening, cooking, and taking photographs. Frequently he brings orchids, roses, and photos into the office to share with his patients and staff.
