Meet Jo Persechino – Audiologist at Hearing Check (Preston & Lytham)
Jo has been part of the Hearing Check team for four years, working across the Preston and Lytham clinics as an experienced and compassionate Audiologist.
After many years in the Police, Jo wanted a career where she could help people in a more personal, life-changing way. Audiology offered exactly that. “I love the sense of satisfaction when a patient suddenly realises they can hear clearly again,” she says. “That look of joy — hearing speech properly or noticing sounds they haven’t heard in years — is priceless.”
Her approach with patients is simple: listen, reassure, and never rush. She understands that everyone is different and says, “You can’t have a single approach when you’re working with different personalities.” For Jo, taking time and making patients feel safe is just as important as the technology itself.
Her one key message about hearing health? “Don’t wait too long before deciding to aid a hearing loss — you can never bring back what’s gone.”
What she loves most about the role is that no two days are the same — every patient brings a new story, a new challenge, and often a new piece of technology to explore.
Outside of work, Jo enjoys spending time with friends and family and appreciating the little things in life. A fun fact? She plays the piano.
She lives by the simple, timeless advice: “Treat people as you would like to be treated.”
