We’ve developed advanced techniques that allow most patients to have their cholesteatoma surgery done in one setting instead of two. Using endoscopes and lasers, we restore normal ear anatomy and reduce recurrence rates to about 5% — the lowest in the country.

Your ears deserve care at every age! Here’s how to keep them healthy:

1. Skip the Q-Tips – They push wax deeper and increase the risk of infection.
2. Guard against loud noise – Wear earplugs at concerts or when using power tools.
3. Support your hearing from the inside – If you’re 40+, take a daily multivitamin with vitamins A, C & E to help slow age-related hearing loss.
4. Keep blood pressure & blood sugar in check – These conditions can speed up hearing loss.
5. Don’t smoke – Smoking accelerates hearing damage.

Small changes today can help you hear better tomorrow.

Dr. Djalilian explains the difference between a Stapedectomy and a Stapedotomy.

Stapedectomy: removal of the stapes bone
Stapedotomy (used in 95%+ of cases today): creating a tiny hole for placing a prosthesis

Both achieve similar hearing results, but Stapedotomy is generally considered safer and less invasive.

The gift of hearing again! Dr. Djalilian shares some of the powerful moments patients experience when their hearing is restored:

✨ Hearing the hum of the air conditioner for the first time.
✨ Realizing toilets make a sound when they flush.
✨ Discovering that songs have words, not just melodies. 🎶

These little moments remind us that hearing restoration isn’t just about sound… it’s about rediscovering life itself.

📚 “Daisy Doo: All the Sounds She Knew” is a heartwarming children's book about a young girl who receives a cochlear implant — and it's not scary at all!

Dr. Djalilian explains that cochlear implants have helped hundreds of thousands of children around the world regain their hearing. In fact, hearing is the only sense that can be restored with surgery or a device. Incredible, right?

Yes, you can get cochlear implants in both ears! 👂👂

Dr. Djalilian explains: For children born deaf, we often implant both ears at the same time to give them the best start in life with balanced hearing. In adults, it depends on how much hearing is left in each ear—but if both ears have significant loss, we may treat both sides together. Every case is unique, and so is the care.
