"I understand what it's like to be vulnerable and overlooked by the medical system. Patients are not just numbers or diseases. They need holistic care. For hearing Loss, hearing aids, cochlear implant surgery, or signed language are only the first steps in a challenging and rewarding life journey. It is an enormous privilege to bring nearly two decades of surgical, scientific, and advocacy experience to help you connect and achieve your own dreams."
