Big shoutout to otolaryngologist and otology fellow Dr. Mikayla Huestis and her fellowship director, neurotologist Dr. Michael Seidman at AdventHealth Celebration, for being the first in the Orlando area to implant FLEX34!

FLEX34 is currently the longest electrode array available, designed to bring those with larger cochleas closer to natural hearing.

Congrats again to Dr. Huestis and Dr. Seidman on a successful surgery!

Every child is unique and so is their hearing. πŸ‘‚

At MED-EL, we believe your child deserves technology that is personalized for their anatomy and designed to give them the closest to natural hearing possible.

That’s why our technology is built for children and families in four keyways:

βœ… With OTOPLAN, your child’s surgeon can see the exact shape and size of their cochlea, helping them select the electrode array that provides the most cochlear coverage and fits best.

βœ… Our wide range of soft, flexible electrode array options are here to fit your child's unique anatomy while preserving their existing hearing.

βœ… After activation, audiologists can use our Anatomy-Based Fitting software to customize your child’s CI settings, delivering a richer, more natural sound experience.

βœ… MED-EL's sound coding strategy delivers sound to the apex (center of cochlea), the way it naturally receives it, supporting an easier listening experience.

With the help of these tools, MED-EL is built to support your child for life.🫑

: Meet Hearpeers Mentor, Mary!

Mary first began losing her hearing in her early twenties and continued to experience gradual hearing loss until she decided to pursue a cochlear implant (CI) in 2021.

After her first year with a CI, Mary was asked to become a Hearpeers Mentor. Knowing the incredible impact a cochlear implant had on her life, she was excited to share her hearing journey with others.

Are you interested in connecting with Mary as a Hearpeers Mentor?

Congratulations to Dr. Mattingly at Parkwest Medical Center for being the first to implant FLEX34 in Tennessee! πŸŽ‰

With FLEX34, Dr. Mattingly can better support patients with larger cochleae by having the ability to stimulate deeper regions of the ear with our longest electrode array.

Congrats again, Dr. Mattingly! πŸ‘
