Your local Hear Always audiology team
Russell Borland
Audiologist
I have worked in audiology for over 30 years. I’m passionate about providing hearing solutions to my patients to help them live life to the full, and I go out of my way to make sure they are happy. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking and spending time with friends and family. My grandchildren keep me on my toes. Weather permitting, I like to escape into my garden.
Kris Borland
Audiologist
I started my career as a police officer and, after six years, retrained to work in audiology, which I have done for nearly ten years. I am always keen to help and make a difference for my patients, helping them to improve their hearing and quality of life. I strive to ensure the consultation experience is relaxed and informative. In my spare time, I am always on the go, between attending the gym, playing football and running after my two daughters.
Beth Murgatroyd
Audiologist
I graduated from the University of Cape Town in 2010 and have been in private practice ever since. I am a passionate Audiologist who believes in person-centred care and continued learning. I cherish the relationships I can build with my patients and look forward to building many more. I am a devoted dog mum of two and love exploring new places with them.
Claire Wilson
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After working for 25 years in the optical industry and working with patients to give them the best service, I decided to change my career to audiology and wanted to provide the best care to my patients. When not working, I enjoy exploring new places with my husband, two kids and my dog Molly.
Marius Stan
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After my education, I worked in the restaurant industry for a Michelin Star restaurant where excellence is a standard requirement in every way. I decided on a career change and started training in audiology. I trained in ear wax removal and then qualified as a Hearing Care Assistant (HCA) before taking an audiology qualification at Queen Margaret University. I enjoy going to the gym and walking my two French Bulldogs with my partner in my spare time.
Chris Bridge
Clinical Co-Ordinator
I have worked in audiology for the last 12 years. My primary role is patient interaction with the business and liaising between patients and Audiologists. I also coordinate the availability of appointments with our optometry partners, ensuring patients are seen promptly. I care for my elderly parents, who have limited mobility. Outside work, I am a governor of the RNLI, helping fundraise for them, and I enjoy gardening.
Michael Macaulay
Clinical Ear Care Practitioner
After working in finance for 9 years, I realised it was not for me and my career move into Audiology has been the best decision I have made. I am qualified in micro-suction and irrigation ear wax removal. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters, or playing a round of golf for some peace!
