I became licensed as a Hearing instrument specialist in 2020 in the state of Illinois and became board certified in January of 2024. I have an incredible desire to help reconnect people with the world around them through hearing by means of hearing aids. I find it very rewarding helping people and their families to understand their hearing loss and how it affects them knowing how the technology of aids provides a measure of relief for a loss. Witnessing these successful accounts daily and being a part of an industry that brings such great quality to life allows me to be so thankful to be of service to the people in need of hearing aid services.

Marilyn Buckley is a Patient Care Coordinator in the Decatur, IL clinic. Marilyn is originally from Waterloo, IA and moved to the Decatur area in 1986. Marilyn started working at Audibel in 2023 and was drawn to the profession because she enjoys helping others, especially the elderly and people with disabilities. What Marilyn loves most about saving hearing lives is to see their eyes light up when they can actually hear. Marilyn strives to make the patients feel comfortable, “heard”, and part of a larger family in her everyday work with patients. Outside of saving hearing lives, Marilyn loves hobbies such as crocheting for charity, crafting, reading, going to festivals, watching live music, watching the St. Louis Blues games, and spending time with my three kids and five granddaughters.
