Tampa Bay Hearing and Balance Center is excited to share a link to a wonderful story and interview with our very own founder, Dr. Loren Bartels, that aired on Tampa Bay 28 News yesterday at 6:00pm!

Gabriel Al Saylami received cochlear implants at 13 months old after being born almost completely deaf. New FDA guidelines could help more families access early intervention.

Advanced Bionics is hosting a free 1-hour educational webinar for patients, called “One Step Towards Better Hearing.” The first webinar will be live TODAY, July 16th at 4:00pm. This would be a wonderful experience for patients who are struggling with their hearing aids and could benefit from education beyond traditional amplification. This is AB’s effort to empower patients into the world of cochlear implants!

Join the webinar where you can hear real stories, ask questions, and take one step toward better hearing - all in a supportive, no-pressure setting.
