Meet The Team

Faye has a deep understanding of client care, coming from a sales and managerial background. Her contribution to James Hearing; the business name being her concept taken from her family roots, has expanded over 15 years. Working alongside the best audiologists, and educated in audiology care by her late husband Lee, has given Faye the determination to continue the reputation as one of the top leading Hearing Specialists in Oxfordshire.

Faye says, "Hearing shouldn't have to be a struggle. You should be enjoying a night out with friends or a family gathering around the table, not struggling to stay in the conversation and getting stressed because you can't hear." James Hearing has a huge database of loyal clients, and Faye believes it is a privilege to repay that loyalty with a commitment to excellent service and offering the best leading products to all who come under her care.

When not working, Faye enjoys weekend spa treats, catching up with friends over a decent gastro-pub meal by an open fire, and pouring over a good book!

Jason has over 10 years post qualification experience in the Electrophysiological Assessment of hearing, particularly CERA and ABR. Jason is fully qualified and highly recommended in Medico-Legal cases and reports for Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) claims. He works closely with James Hearing and solicitors who instruct in both defendant or claimant cases. High standards are again emphasised when he carries out audiograms and hearing loss assessments/reports to the standard defined by the British Society of Audiology (BSA). Jason is a current member of the BSA Professional Practice Group and Electrophysiology Special Interest Group, and is also involved in the production of the UKs Audiology Guidance and Recommended Procedures.

When not in the clinic, Jason is happily married (note pic!) with a 7 year old and two cockapoos whom he keeps on their toes. He is often found going out for long walks and also enjoying ice creams at the local parlour... regardless of the British weather!

Although registered as a clinical scientist, Stuart is lead audiologist in paediatrics, from newborn to translation, and has been doing this solely since 2012. Prior to that he has been engaged in a range of roles from being head of audiology in North West London to dispensing hearing aids and hearing care in the private sector since 1997. Stuart has studied extensively since taking an interest in hearing care, by acquiring an MBA at Exeter University, BTEC MPPM in 2002, becoming a member of the HAC; to present day where he is a doctoral student in HSST (Higher Specialist Scientist Training) a workplace-based training programme supported by an underpinning doctoral-level academic programme. Stuart has given multiple conference presentations, published papers and has been an expert witness on two legal cases.

When not working Stuart spends much loved family time with his two boys, walking the dog on the moors or taking long strolls on the beach, local to where he lives. He says football is another pastime, by playing along with his pals; he says, "nothing too serious, just a group of school dads burning off steam!"
