The center performs cochlear implant surgeries for congenital and acquired severe hearing impairments that cannot be managed with hearing aids. For cochlear implants to be fully effective, it is necessary to implement an accurate preoperative assessment, post-operative implant adjustment and speech rehabilitation. The center provides individualized medical treatment and rehabilitation programs tailored to the clinical conditions of each patient, with a team of physicians specialized in cochlear implants and speech-language pathologists. We also conduct surgeries for electro acoustic simulation (EAS) hearing systems combined with hearing aids aimed at hearing impaired patients, as well as for Vibrant Soundbridge (VSB) middle ear implant systems and bone anchored hearing aids (BAHA) aimed at conducting hearing loss and mixed hearing loss patients.
The center is composed of 6 physicians specializing in cochlear implants and 2 speech-language pathologists who are in charge of outpatient and inpatient treatment, and rehabilitation.

It was previously believed that the inner ear function would be lost by inserting electrodes to the inner ear, but we carry out minimally invasive cochlear implantation surgeries that conserve the residual inner ear function as much as possible. For conducting hearing impairment and mixed hearing impairment patients that cannot obtain sufficient improvement in hearing with conventional hearing aids, we also provide surgeries for Vibrant Soundbridge (VSB) middle ear implant systems and bone anchored hearing aids (BAHA).

Congenital severe hearing impairment, acquired severe hearing impairment, high-frequency hearing impairment, conductive hearing impairment, mixed hearing impairment, hereditary hearing impairment, hearing impairment caused by viral infection, inner ear malformation, drug-induced hearing impairment, etc.
