Shelia Murphy

Owner, Patient Care Coordinator

Shelia Murphy is an Owner of Audibel Hearing Aid Centers. Shelia was raised on a farm in Hazlehurst, Georgia, with her two sisters, Becky and Vernice.  They spent many summers working in the tobacco fields with their daddy. Shelia graduated from Jeff Davis High School, Class of 1977.  After graduation, Shelia married Wayne, while he was serving in the military. They moved to Fort Walton Beach, where their only son, Jason, was born.  Sheila’s priorities were as a housewife and stay-at-home mom. Upon returning home to Hazlehurst, Shelia began learning how to upholstery furniture with her grandmother. After her grandmother’s retirement, Shelia started helping her father with his five chicken houses, gathering eggs twice a day. Surprisingly one day in 1983, Wayne’s excitement and curiosity surrounding the hearing aid industry drew Shelia’s interest in supporting her husband’s passion, soon to become her own.

In 1984, Shelia was hired as the Secretary in a Waycross hearing aid practice three days a week. After her son started school, she began working more frequently until purchasing their own hearing aid practice, which became a full-time job with administrative and financial responsibilities. In 2000, Wayne and Shelia decided to partner their company with Audibel. Over several years of hard work, Audibel Hearing Aid Centers expanded to 4 locations in Douglas, Tifton, Valdosta, and Waycross. In 2024, Wayne and Shelia passed their Valdosta legacy along to their son. Shelia remains extremely proud to be a part of the hearing aid industry. She thoroughly enjoys the fun, loving, and caring nature of the business. She cherishes seeing the difference hearing aids make in someone’s life. Mostly, Shelia loves interacting with patients and developing lasting friendships.

Outside of work, Shelia enjoys weekly lunches with her sisters reminiscing and catching up on local news. Shelia also looks forward to a manicure and pedicure at her favorite nail salon. She loves spending quality time with her family and friends. She thoroughly enjoys vacationing at the beach and mountains with her husband.

Jerry Carver

Hearing Instrument Specialist

Jerry Carver is a licensed Hearing Instrument Specialist in the state of Georgia. Jerry grew up in the Douglas, Georgia, area enjoying fishing, hunting and camping with cousins.  During childhood, Jerry helped his grandparents on their farm picking peas and watermelons.  Jerry liked moving the cows between pastures.  He always tried to call the cows like his Papa.  As Jerry grew older, he spent time working in construction and carpentry.  He learned work ethic and its ok to sweat for a living.      

Jerry moved to Waycross, in 2011 to care for his grandparents. During this time, he helped his grandfather overcome many health obstacles, including hearing loss.  Jerry learned the challenges his Papa faced with understanding at a doctor’s appointment one day, which Jerry found very alarming.  They immediately scheduled an appointment for a hearing test with Audibel Hearing Aid Centers in Waycross and discovered his Papa had a significant hearing loss.  They decided the best solution was to purchase a set of hearing aids for his Papa.  With the hearing aids, Jerry realized his Papa was enjoying life again.  His Papa always loved to talk, but the hearing loss hindered that ability.  His Papa got all that enjoyment back with hearing aids.  Wayne Murphy, the hearing instrument specialist helping Jerry’s Papa, noticed Jerry’s interest in hearing aids at the appointments and offered Jerry an opportunity to further his knowledge about hearing loss and its solutions.  Jerry decided to pursue this path and began his career in the hearing aid industry by joining Audibel Hearing Aid Centers team in 2012.  Through this experience, Jerry discovered his passion for helping individuals with hearing difficulties achieve better hearing.

Jerry loves helping people have a better quality of life with their families through better hearing. Jerry strives to understand each customer’s hearing loss and provide the best hearing aid solution. Jerry enjoys building relationships with patients that lead to excellent long-term care and service. Jerry is dedicated to helping his customers in their journey to better hearing.

Shortly after becoming involved in the hearing aid industry, Jerry met his wife, Sarah. They have 2 children, Alexis and Jeremiah.  Jerry loves spending time with his family and friends, fishing, and playing golf.
