69. A Silent Revolution in Hearing Loss Treatment

Cochlear implants are leading a revolution in the treatment of hearing loss. According to a 2022 study, only about 10% of those who qualify for cochlear implants have received them. Cost, accessibility, and lack of awareness are only some roadblocks for potential patients. At Pacific Neuroscience Institute, Dr. Courtney Voelker and Dr. Chester Griffiths are working to change that. Dr. Voelker is recognized as one of the nation’s top cochlear implant surgeons, with patients as young as five months old. Dr. Griffiths is the founder of Pacific Head & Neck, a premier clinic in Los Angeles. Because hearing loss is the leading modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline, addressing it is vital. Tune in to hear how these two doctors are raising awareness about cochlear implants and making a difference in people’s lives.
