Catherine grew up knowing she wanted to help people solve their hearing problems. Both her grandfather and grandmother Bieri were hearing impaired. Her grandmother was also blind, and by 10 years old, Cathy could communicate by finger spelling in her grandmother’s hand. Her father, Gottlieb Bieri, was a pioneer in providing new technology in hearing improvement.
Cathy earned her B.A. in speech and audiology at Michigan State, an MSC in speech pathology at Auburn University and an M.A. in audiology at Central Michigan University. Cathy embarked on a career in the field of audiology and speech pathology by taking advantage of the opportunity to work with her father at Bieri Hearing Specialists.
In 1986, when her father passed away Cathy assumed the responsibilities of president of Bieri Hearing Clinic, while continuing to serve her patients as a speech pathologist and audiologist.
Always up to a challenge, Cathy has opened new locations in Midland, Frankenmuth and Bay City. She credits her success to helping people live a better life by improving their hearing and speech through her attention to personal care and utilizing the most advanced hearing technology.
