Questions about Hearing Loss?
Contact Us,
We would be glad to give you the support you need,
​as best as we are able.
Also, Below is a button to the link to some well presented self-help video's about a number of the usual questions those with hearing loss are asking.

Sudden Deafness
A Medical Emergency
If you've suddenly experienced a dramatic hearing loss there is hope. Treatment with corticosteroids have been shown to be the most effective at treating SSHL.
The sooner it is treated once detected, the greater chance of recovery. Treatment should occur by an otolaryngologist (ENT), otologist or at an Emergency Room as soon as possible.
