Dr. William H. Slattery: A Story of Professional and Personal Connection to Cochlear Implants

If you or a loved one are missing out on cherished life moments, take the first step in addressing your hearing loss at https://bit.ly/2XHZqJD. Dr. William H. Slattery III, a Neurotologist at House Ear Clinic, is a Cochlear implant surgeon who has been helping his patients rediscover a world of sound for many years. Every day, he sees the loss of connection that results from hearing loss. His own father, Bill Slattery, has struggled with gradual hearing loss since he was in his 30s. Bill was using the most powerful hearing aids in the industry and was still not able to hear his family and friends and participate in conversations and events. His wife, Betty Slattery, would write everything out for him in order to converse in their day to day lives, leaving both of them feeling frustrated and isolated. Dr. Slattery saw his father struggle with the same thing that most of his patients struggle with: “I know what I have now with my hearing aids, there’s something potentially better, but what am I going to lose in order to gain something.” With the encouragement of his family, Bill had his cochlear implant surgery and is able to understand his family again. Being able to communicate and converse with one another is a vital part of sharing life with loved ones. Thanks to his Cochlear implant, the Slattery’s are able to experience family time the way it was meant to be shared - together.
