"After an annual audiology review at my local hospital I was referred to James Cook Hospital Middlesbrough and began the assessment process, I was delighted to be accepted as a cochlear implant candidate. I had my operation in November 2022.
"Advanced Bionic was the company that James Cook recommended and after speaking to many support groups they all explained how AMAZING the new Marvel CI was and I am blown away by the kit provided, including the Roger Select, rechargeable batteries, dry box, ability to stream phone calls and music directly to my implant and linked hearing aid -- and now I can access the Remote Programming opportunity it is incredible!!
"Advanced Bionics and the team at James Cook have completely changed my life beyond my expectations! I have gone from having a 33% speech test score to 96% and 100% in my tests post-implant! This has given me a new confidence and belief in myself, the ability to be in social situations without anxiety and fear of embarrassment. I can hear my son and family without the exhaustion of lip reading I am forever grateful! 🙌🏼🦻💙” -- @charlottefyoung
