Connect with a HearPeers Mentor
With their own unique cochlear implant journey, our HearPeers mentors have been through the hearing implant process themselves. They’ve asked all the same questions and experienced the same uncertainty. Now that they’re standing on the other side, they’re ready and happy to share their experiences with you.
If you’re on the fence about whether or not it’s time to pursue treatment for you or your child’s hearing loss, our HearPeers mentors will understand how you feel.
We look forward to hearing your story and helping you throughout your hearing journey!
