Life-Changing Surgery to Help Kids Hear

If your child has hearing problems that arent helped by a hearing aid, a cochlear implant may make a huge difference in their ability to hear. The implant features two parts: a surgically implanted device that electrically stimulates the hearing nerve, and a programmable piece worn externally (on the head) that processes sounds.

Sometimes called a bionic ear, getting a cochlear implant can be a life-changing event for kids with hearing loss. At 消消消消消消消娼瞳 Children's, our cochlear implant surgery team brings together a wide range of expertise and experience to help give your child the gift of sound.
