Who Was Creig Dunckel?
Creig Dunckel was a well-known and respected Texas audiologist, practice-owner, and educator, who died suddenly on May 23, 2018, at the age of 72. He was respected and loved by not only Texas audiologists, but by audiologists world wide. He and his family lived in the Dallas area for 42 years, where he established several successful audiology practices. In addition to his private practices, he was a consultant and educator for ReSound and for Oticon.
Creig had a heart for students and a gift for teaching. He had a knack for sharing his knowledge of audiology and practice management with others. He was intelligent, warm, witty, and charming, bringing all of these characteristics into his teaching style. His teaching, supervision, mentorship, support, and encouragement impacted hundreds of audiologists, not only in Texas, but throughout the nation.
Creig was a long time and loyal attendee at the Scott Haug Foundation Annual Audiology Retreat. He always looked forward to the annual golf tournament, as he was an avid and skilled golfer; but, more than that, he loved the camaraderie of this tournament and all of the other Retreat courses and activities.
Creig’s memory and love for teaching will carry on with the establishment of the Creig Dunckel Memorial Fund.
