Sonova and its brands provide leading hearing technology for its customers.

FAQ series, part 1/5: What are my Cochlear Implant Options? As a consumer, it is important for you to have options regarding the brand of cochlear implant you choose. So, ask your surgeon if they offer multiple options. The vast majority of cochlear implant clinics offer technologies from all three of the major cochlear implant manufacturers. If the surgeon states that the clinic offers fewer than three, ask why. Are you looking to learn more about cochlear implants for yourself or a loved on?

Scroll down for English 👇 “Hallo, mein Name ist Ellen Smit. Am 10.1.2024 hatte ich nachts einen Hörsturz. Nach einer Notoperation im nächstgroßen Krankenhaus und anschließender einwöchiger Cortison-Infusionstherapie kam leider mein Gehör nicht mehr zurück und ich bin auf der rechten Seite komplett ertaubt. Am 2.4.2024 wurde ich in der Universitätsklinik Frankfurt mit einem Marvel Cochlea-Implantat von AB ausgestattet. Links trage ich das passende Naída Link Hörgerät von Phonak. 😌 Mein Mann nennt mich nun sein Cyber-Mädchen und natürlich trage ich es sichtbar und in rosa. Einmal Prinzessin, immer Prinzessin.🤩 Ich bin dankbar für die Möglichkeiten, die mir AB und Phonak ermöglichen. 🙏🏻 Selbst fürs Schwimmen gibt es ein tolles Aqua Kit, welches ich im Sommer täglich im Freibad nutze. Ich bin noch am Anfang meiner Hörreise und optimistisch und gespannt, wie es sich entwickelt. 💪🏼🍀Dankeschön für die super Arbeit, die AB leistet” English: Hello, my name is Ellen Smit. On January 10, 2024, I had a sudden hearing loss at night. After an emergency operation in the nearest major hospital and subsequent one-week cortisone infusion therapy, my hearing unfortunately did not return and I am completely deaf on the right side. On April 2, 2024, I was fitted with a Marvel cochlear implant from AB at Frankfurt University Hospital. On the left, I wear the matching Naída Link hearing aid from @Phonak. 😌 My husband now calls me his cyber girl and of course I wear it visibly and in pink. Once a princess, always a princess.🤩 I am grateful for the opportunities that AB and Phonak have given me. 🙏🏻 There's even a great aqua kit for swimming, which I use every day at the outdoor pool in summer. I'm still at the beginning of my hearing journey and I'm optimistic and excited to see how it develops. 💪🏼🍀Thank you for the great work AB is doing.
