Cochlear Implants
Cochlear implants are surgically implanted medical devices that replace the function of the inner ear (cochlea) and are designed to mimic natural hearing. A cochlear implant is a good next step to explore if you have sensorineural hearing loss in one or both ears, your hearing aids are no longer helping or if a crucial part of your inner-ear isn’t working properly.

Custom Hearing Protection

These devices are custom made by having ear impressions taken in our clinic to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. Custom hearing protection can be used in various noisy environments, including work places, concerts, shooting ranges, and during activities like swimming or sleeping. They are effective in reducing harmful noise levels while allowing the wearer to hear essential sounds and maintain situational awareness.

Hearing Aids
Hearing aids are small electronic devices that capture sound and make it louder. They are typically a solution for those who have mild to severe hearing loss and have some remaining healthy sensory hair cells in the inner ear (cochlea) that can transmit sound to the brain using amplification. However, as hearing loss progresses, it may still be difficult to hear speech and understand conversations even when using powerful hearing aids.
