Join Weesie as she learns about implant surgery and makes an important choice for herself with the help of family, friends, and doctors. ___________________________________________ Note to the reader, The bone-conduction hearing device on a headband can help support the development of language and the brain before the child is old enough for implant surgery. Some children and adults wear the soft band for years or even their entire lives. Now retired, Dr. Gord was an internationally recognized plastic surgeon offering surgery for the bone-anchored hearing implant and ear reconstruction to this patient group. The approach to Bone-conduction hearing may vary depending on the region and surgeons. Readers are encouraged to contact their local audiologists and physicians to understand the options available in their area. Additional resources: www.earcommunity.org
