Stephen Coulson, M.A., CCC-A

Audiologist

Stephen is originally from Smyrna, TN and received his master’s degree in Audiology in 1999 from The University of Tennessee, Go VOLS!  After graduation, Stephen spent the next two years in Philadelphia, PA completing his clinical fellowship in a variety of settings including hospitals, ENT clinics, and a private hearing aid practice. He moved to Durham, North Carolina in 2001 and began working for Audibel Hearing Centers.  

What Stephen loves the most is seeing the smiles when they turn on a patient’s new hearing aids for the first time! He feels blessed to work in an office that has been a staple for hearing needs for over 40 years, and in an office where he is fortunate to see grandparents, their children, and their grandchildren receive the best hearing available.  

Stephen currently resides in Hillsborough, NC with his wife, two kids, and hound dog, Rosalie. Outside of work, he enjoys cooking for his family, travel soccer with his son, and dance competitions with his daughter. 

With Audibel he truly believes we are fitting the best technology available along with providing the best quality of service to all our patients.

Friendly and prompt in reception. Dr Steve was warm and personal. He checked and cleaned my own hearing aides. A great first visit!

I loved how the Dr was open to hearing me out. He really seemed like a great guy with a great attitude. He didn't try to sell me anything extra. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone, especially my friends. The receptionist was really cool too.

Immediate and effective solution to left hearing aide not working. Receptionist fixed it with second effort and without charge. I was in office under 5 minutes.

Everyone in the office was very professional and pleasant! I was not made to feel uncomfortable in any way whatsoever. They are willing to work with you financially without interest payments.

Audible in North Durham is the best place for those dealing with hearing loss. Steve is very experienced and has a wonderful manner with patients. The hearing aids he prescribes are the best and highest in technology. His assistant is excellent in helping on the phone with pop up issues...
