Audiology
The Division of Audiology at Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland works with children from birth to 21 years to diagnose and treat hearing loss or impairment. We have a specially trained team of audiologists and speech pathologists that offer cutting edge technology to help children improve hearing, speech and language.
One of our most popular programs is the Cochlear Implant Program. A cochlear implant is a small, complex electronic device that can help to provide a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf or severely hard of hearing. The implant is surgically placed under the skin behind the ear. We have safely and successfully implanted the device in more than one hundred and sixty children.
