Our Professional Staff

Megan Nightingale, Doctor of Audiology has been serving the Kitsap and Jefferson county areas since 1990. An Audiologist for over 30 years, she and her team excel in providing very personalized hearing and tinnitus solutions. Dr. Nightingale has been an officer in several state and national professional organizations working with hearing and tinnitus issues over the years. “Having hearing and tinnitus issues myself, I have a very intimate knowledge and perspective of the problems people face when dealing with a hearing or tinnitus problem.” Our clients are like family. We pride ourselves on providing a home like, easy atmosphere in which to help our client with their hearing and tinnitus needs.

Hello, I am Dr. Taylor Knight and I am originally from Lake Chelan, WA. I earned my Bachelors of Arts Degree from Washington State University in 2014 and my Doctor of Audiology Degree from Pacific University in 2017. Previously, I worked as a resident at Virginia Mason Medical Center in downtown Seattle, WA and as a Clinical Audiologist at Cascade Ear Nose & Throat in Mount Vernon and Anacortes, WA.  I am very excited to be in the Puget Sound area working with patients on improving the quality of their hearing health. I find so much joy in helping people remember what it is like to hear better in their environments and with their families or friends. 

I personally love spending time with my own family, including my rambunctious little 1 year old son, Griffin! We felt like this area, near family, was the perfect place to raise our sweet little boy. We enjoy being outdoors, meeting new people, trying new restaurants, and traveling back to Lake Chelan for family vacations.

June has been a part time Audiologist at Peninsula Hearing since 2008. Prior to working at Peninsula she was a full time staff Audiologist in the VA Puget Sound Health Care System. “My interests and background include medical Audiology, tinnitus concerns and hearing instrument triage. I thoroughly enjoy my time with our clients, getting to know each of you and the ability to improve your communication on a daily basis.”

Matt has been with Peninsula Hearing since December of 2006 and has brought with him 25 years' experience in Human Resources, Customer Service, Communications and Training. “If there is one health issue that 90% of the time seems to sit on the back burner, it’s our hearing. If I can help the folks in our community to take care of their hearing as well as their teeth or eyes, then I have helped make a difference in their overall health. When people come to visit us and trust us with their hearing health they are going to find a staff that is warm, friendly, anxious to help and dare I say it, fun! “

Barbara joined the Peninsula Hearing team in 1998, initially as a receptionist. She has worked her way into the position of office manager and Audiology Assistant. Her background in engineering has helped her to smoothly run the lab and be an integral part of helping people get their hearing back. “I love what I do because at a very early age I used to enjoy walking in nature and identifying the sounds around me. Here at Peninsula, when we help someone hear better, my thoughts go back to those cherished memories. I am helping to reconnect our clients to those wonderful moments.”

Kathy has been with Peninsula Hearing since February 2017. She joined us as the Office Manager at our Port Townsend location. Kathy has many years of training and experience in management and what it means to provide excellent customer service to clients in a healthcare setting. One of Kathy’s favorite hobbies is spending time with her grandchildren.

Sue comes to Peninsula Hearing with an extensive customer service background. One of the best things about coming to work is the smiles on people’s faces when they are able to hear again. Her warm friendly smile greets clients when they come to the Poulsbo Office and her love of baking means there are often cookies to go with their cup of coffee. “I want folks to feel comfortable when they come into our office. Like they are visiting a good friend or family.”

Emily joined our Peninsula Hearing team in 2019. She comes to us with a Bachelor of Arts in Social Science and many years as an elementary school teacher. Emily’s bright smile and attitude helps her to care for our patients and make each visit run as smooth as possible.  She strives to have everyone she comes across leave with a smile, even over the phone.  “I love when a patient who has just put on their new hearing aids tells me all the things they are looking forward to doing now that they can hear.”  Growing up in the northwest, Emily enjoys the beauty here that is unequaled anywhere else.
