Meet the Team

Marla Pennell, AuD

AUDIOLOGIST

Hometown: Midland, TX

About Me:
Life is an adventure that I embrace fully – whether I’m practicing yoga at sunrise, hiking scenic trails, or casting a line at my favorite fishing spot. These outdoor pursuits keep me grounded and energized for my true passion: serving our community through audiology.

I am active with the American Academy of Audiology, Texas Academy of Audiology, American Speech and Hearing Association, and have 32 years of experience in audiology!

Outside of work:
You’ll find me surrounded by my wonderful family, including my spouse of 32 years who’s been through every journey. Together, we’ve raised three amazing children and created quite the lovable menagerie – four playful dogs and three charming chickens who keep our backyard lively! Our home is never short on love, laughter, or fresh eggs.

Arianna Garcia, AuD

Audiologist

Hometown: Eagle Pass, Tx

I always strive to bring warmth and expertise to my role as an audiologist, combining my passion for helping others and specialized knowledge in hearing health. As a bilingual provider, I help to break down language and communication barriers while serving my Spanish-speaking patients. My work with the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM) Hear Clinics at Waterloo Audiology allows me to preserve and protect the hearing health of Austin’s vibrant music community. What truly drives my work is witnessing patients reconnect with their world through better hearing.

Drawing from my education at the University of Texas, where I completed both my undergraduate degree and Doctor of Audiology, I now am privileged to helps shape the next generation of audiologists as a Clinical Supervisor at the UT Speech and Hearing Clinic.

Outside of work:
When I am not transforming lives through hearing health services, you might find me channeling my energy in the boxing ring, enjoying Austin’s legendary live music scene, or cherishing time with my family.

Anabel Mendoza

Patient Care Coordinator

Hometown: Elgin, TX

Professionally, I have dedicated the past 7 years to working as a Patient Care Coordinator (PCC), where I derive great satisfaction from assisting individuals in achieving optimal hearing through routine maintenance of their hearing devices. This role has taught me the profound impact that hearing can have on one’s quality of life.

Outside of work:
I am an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys leisurely walks, hiking, and staying active. My passion for soccer, which began during my high school playing days, continues to this day, with my two daughters now carrying on the family tradition.

I have been a longstanding resident of Elgin, Texas, with over 30 years of ties to the community. After attending middle school and high school locally, I established strong roots in the area, with my family and childhood friends still residing here.

Recently purchased my second pair of Phonak hearing aids from Hill Country Audiology. The service I have received from Hill Country Audiology over the past five years has been excellent.

Best place to go for hearing health!! You’re getting your care from Audiologists that are Doctors of Audiology (8 years of schooling!). They are so knowledgeable, not pushy, and if you need hearing aids they will work with you to find some in your budget. They take their time with your appointment and truly care about every patient. Small office which means you won’t get lost in the shuffle- I’ve been to a lot of doctors offices that make you feel like just a number and this is 100% NOT one of those places. Leslie (the Patient Care Coordinator up front) is so friendly and you can tell she enjoys what she does! I cannot recommend Hill Country Audiology enough!!

Ashley Richburg is a very competent Audiologist and delightful to work with! She helped me from start to finish to upgrade from old hearing aids purchased 5 years ago to new hearing aids with better technology! I highly recommend her especially to fellow residents of Sun City!

I've been wearing hearing aids since 2003 and have bought hearing aids in different places. I would highly recommend Hill Country Audiology, mainly because of the no pressure, but very informative education of the new technology of the hearing aids. Dr. Ashley Richburg was so good at explaining the advances in the technology and suggesting a good brand for me. The office is friendly and great at staying in touch.

I found out 2 weeks before the end of the year that my insurance benefits had changed and would now pay for hearing aids! After talking to a couple different places that either couldn't get me in or couldn't file in time, Dr. Richburg and Dr. Pennell both worked with me to get me the industry's best hearing aids for my needs. They were able to fit me in around the holidays and filed with insurance before the end of the year. They took time to explain the new app, the new features, and to make sure I was comfortable with the new pair. They both are very professional, courteous, personable and knowledgeable. And let's not forget Leslie at the front desk! Amazing staff, amazing care, amazing experience. I will definitely return for mine and my family's hearing needs. As well as recommend everyone check them out!
