We’re proud of our small-town roots at Acro Audiology. Owner and lead Audiologist, Kayla Golliher, was raised working in her parent’s feed store in Fort Stockton, Texas. Acro Audiology Hearing Care Center opened during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Our first location opened in Fort Stockton, Texas in July 2020, followed by our San Antonio location soon after in September 2020.
We’re passionate about improving our patient’s lives through the highest quality of hearing health care – hence “Acro” in our name, meaning “highest”. We won’t recommend a hearing device you don’t need or technology level above your daily listening lifestyle. We treat every patient as if they were family, offering access to their audiologist’s direct email to help communicate quickly and with ease.
Meet our Professionals
Kayla Golliher, Au.D.
Audiologist
Dr. Kayla Golliher is the founder of Acro Audiology and has been a practicing audiologist for more than seven years. She received her Bachelor of Science in Speech, Language and Hearing and Doctor of Audiology from Texas Tech Health Sciences Center. Dr. Golliher then took her externship at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center with a focus in diagnostic audiology. She specializes in all forms of adult and pediatric hearing treatment.
