Even with hearing aids, you or someone you love may not be hearing everything. Cochlear™ hearing implants work differently than hearing aids. They are a proven solution to make sounds louder and clearer. If you are missing out on the sounds of life, ask your doctor for a cochlear implant evaluation.

Dr. David C. Kelsall, an Otologist from Rocky Mountain Ear Center in Denver, Colorado has performed over 1000 cochlear implants in his 28 years as surgeon.

In this video, Dr. Kelsall describes a cochlear implant surgery process and shares his experience with the hope of reducing the fear or anxiety you may have if you are considering a cochlear implant to address your hearing loss. Dr. Kelsall says, “for most people, surgery is still a scary part of the whole process, and I think it is probably the number one reason that people don’t come in to get a cochlear implant.”

Dr. Kelsall explains that as technology has advanced, surgery has become much less involved and considers it a fairly minor operation that is about an hour in length.
