With deep respect and admiration, we remember Jack Katz, PhD, as a towering figure in the field of audiology whose influence has left an indelible mark on generations of clinicians, educators, and researchers. Dr. Katz’s passing is a profound loss to the profession, but his legacy endures in the foundational knowledge, diagnostic tools, and commitment to excellence that define audiology today.

Dr. Katz was best known for his development of the Buffalo Model for central auditory processing assessment

Simeon Audio | Supportive Hearing Systems wishes to acknowledge the lasting impact of Dr. Jack Katz, the legendary Audiologist who passed away on July 11th.

Founder of the Buffalo Model that led to a better understanding of Auditory Processing Deficit, Dr. Jack’s research unearthed four distinct domains for APD, allowing for improved treatment. If anyone is interested, the four domains include: decoding, tolerance-fading memory, organization and integration.

Simeon celebrates his work, recognizes his contributions to the profession and acknowledges the lasting impact his work has had on possibly millions of APD patients, both adult and pediatric. Dr. Katz will be missed.
