Hearing implant information for adults and their families, from your first questions to life after surgery.
Patient Information
Where to start
If hearing aids no longer help as much as they used to, you may have questions about what comes next. Whether you’re just starting to look into hearing implants or preparing for surgery, the links below will take you to the right information.
Deciding on a hearing implant
Choosing a hearing implant is a big decision, and it’s normal to have questions. Many adults wait years before finding out they could benefit. Australian research suggests only around 1 in 10 adults who could benefit from a cochlear implant currently has one.
Partners and family members often encourage that first appointment, because hearing loss affects communication for everyone at home. You’re welcome to bring a family member to your appointments.
Our team will explain your options clearly, answer your questions and give you time to decide. There’s no pressure to go ahead.
