Cochlear Implant Consultations With Wavefront Centre

Here at the Wavefront Centre for Communication Accessibility, we celebrate the diverse needs of the Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing communities and their different requirements to communicate effectively with their loved ones.

Cochlear implants could be a welcome solution for those with severe to profound hearing loss who wish to hear the world around them clearly. Our team are more than happy to help recommend the right device and surgeon for you and your specific hearing needs; no two pairs of ears are the same, and we aim to help as many people with their hearing as we can.

If you’re curious to see if a MED-EL cochlear implant could help your hearing, please feel free to fill in the form and we’ll get in touch to see how we can help you.
